What Patients Say About Cancer Treatment at New Hope
What is Hepatocellular Carcinoma?
Unlocking the possibility of cancer remission begins with knowing vital information about your diagnosis.
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), also called hepatoma, is the most common form of primary liver cancer. HCC differs from secondary or metastatic liver cancers, which have spread to the liver from other vital organs. The incidence of HCC has been increasing worldwide over the last 20 years. The numbers are expected to rise until 2030 in several countries, including the United States.
What are the Signs of Hepatoma?
Here at New Hope Unlimited, among our priorities is to reverse the symptoms of hepatocellular carcinoma, which may include:
- Pain in the upper right area of your abdomen
- An unexplainable lump in your upper stomach
- Abdominal bloating or swelling
- Loss of appetite accompanied by a feeling of fullness
- Unintended weight loss
- Nausea and vomiting
- A fever that may come and go
- Weakness or persistent fatigue
- Yellow skin and eyes (jaundice)
- Dark urine and pale, chalky bowel movements
- The feeling of ill or deteriorating health
What Caused Your Cancer?
While the exact cause of hepatocellular carcinoma remains unknown, medical scientists have identified the following risk factors of hepatoma:
- Infection with hepatitis B
- Infection with hepatitis C
- A personal history of cirrhosis
- Excessive alcohol consumption
- Being overweight or obese
- Exposure to a harmful substance called aflatoxin
- Having an iron overload disorder
How Do Doctors Confirm a Cancer Diagnosis?
An early diagnosis may significantly improve your hepatocellular carcinoma prognosis and life expectancy. Therefore, your doctor might order the following tests to produce accurate findings and learn the extent of your cancer:
- Medical and physical exam
- Blood tests to measure liver function
- Ultrasound
- Computed axial tomography (CT) scan
