Free tumour board review for every case
Primary liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma) usually develops in a liver already damaged by hepatitis B or C, alcohol, or fatty liver disease. Treatment depends as much on liver function as on the tumour itself, and options span surgery, ablation, embolisation, and systemic therapy.
Diagnosed at another hospital? You’re welcome too, with no commitment to start treatment at CION.
Primary liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma) usually develops in a liver already damaged by hepatitis B or C, alcohol, or fatty liver disease. Treatment depends as much on liver function as on the tumour itself, and options span surgery, ablation, embolisation, and systemic therapy.
Most of these have other causes too. If one lasts, see a doctor.
Having a risk factor doesn’t mean you will get cancer.
Diagnosis uses triple-phase CT or MRI, the AFP blood marker, and biopsy in selected cases. Assessment of underlying liver function is integral to choosing safe treatment.
Many of these tests can be arranged by your CION team in Vizag.
Your plan depends on the type and stage of the cancer and on your overall health. CION’s tumour board agrees on it with you.

CION treats these and other cancers. Not sure about yours? Ask when you call.
Yes. Periodic ultrasound and AFP testing are recommended for people with chronic hepatitis B or cirrhosis so that tumours are found when they are small and treatable.
Not always — characteristic findings on multi-phase CT/MRI in a cirrhotic liver can be diagnostic. Your team will advise if a biopsy adds value.
TACE delivers chemotherapy directly into the artery feeding the tumour and blocks its blood supply. It is used when surgery or ablation is not suitable.
