Interventional Radiology in the Treatment and Management of Liver Cancer

Onyeisi Jessica*

The management of primary and secondary malignancies of the liver constitutes one of the most difficult challenges for oncologists. First, primary hepatic malignancies frequently escape detection because most patients remain asymptomatic for long periods. Then, if clinical symptoms are present, they may be masked by the patient's underlying liver disease and may, therefore, be difficult to attribute to a malignancy. In addition, clinical outcome is typically poor, with median survival of less than 1 year for all patients and between 3 and 6 months for unresectable presentations.
