Can advanced liver cancer do liver transplantation

summary

I got liver cancer. At that time, the doctor told me that it was advanced. But my family heard that it could be done with liver transplantation, so they had been discussing with the doctor about whether it could be done. Now they have been hospitalized. Now let's talk about whether liver transplantation can be done in advanced stage of liver cancer.

Can advanced liver cancer do liver transplantation

First: at present, liver cancer is in the advanced stage. It is difficult to determine whether liver transplantation can be carried out. The key is to carry out effective matching. At the same time, it is possible that liver cancer has metastasized in the advanced stage, that is, the effect after transplantation will not be very good, so we can go to the transplantation center for effective consultation.

Second, liver transplantation should be carried out according to the degree of coincidence between the ligand and the receptor. The higher the degree of anastomosis, the higher the success rate of transplantation. The premise of transplantation is to do a comprehensive inspection to see if it is suitable for transplantation. In addition, the liver will regenerate in patients who receive the liver. However, like kidney transplantation, liver transplantation also faces the risk of operation and anti rejection after operation.

Third, the diameter of a single tumor should be less than or equal to 5 cm. The number of multiple tumors is less than 3, and the maximum diameter is less than 3 cm. Therefore, it depends on the actual situation of patients to decide whether it is suitable for liver transplantation.

matters needing attention

In fact, if you want to transplant, you need early or medium-term patients, which is not suitable for advanced patients. Advanced liver cancer has metastasis in situ, such as lung, adrenal and so on. Even if the transplantation is meaningless, it will recur soon, and surgery may speed up the progress of the tumor.
