Can liver cancer be cured by interventional therapy?

Interventional therapy for liver cancer varies from person to person. Generally, it can control tumor growth and improve quality of life, but it cannot cure liver cancer. It has limitations such as limited scope of application, side effects and risk of recurrence and metastasis. Liver cancer is a common malignant tumor. Interventional therapy is one of the important means of liver cancer treatment. So, can interventional therapy cure liver cancer? Interventional therapy for liver cancer varies from person to person and cannot be generalized. In general, interventional therapy for liver cancer can achieve the following effects: control tumor growth: interventional therapy can inhibit tumor growth, alleviate symptoms, and prolong the survival of patients by embolization of tumor blood vessels and blocking tumor nutrient supply. Interventional therapy can reduce the impact of tumor on liver function and improve the quality of life of patients. Local treatment: For small liver cancer or liver cancer recurrence, interventional therapy can directly act on the tumor site and improve the treatment effect. It should be noted that interventional therapy for liver cancer also has some limitations, such as: limited scope of application: Interventional therapy is generally suitable for patients with early liver cancer or liver cancer that cannot be surgically removed. For patients with advanced liver cancer or tumor metastasis, the interventional therapy effect may not be ideal. Side effects: Interventional therapy may cause some side effects, such as pain, fever, nausea, vomiting, etc. In a few cases, serious complications may occur, such as liver and kidney function damage, blood vessel rupture, etc. Recurrence and metastasis: After interventional therapy, liver cancer may recur or metastasize. Therefore, patients need regular review in order to detect and deal with problems in time. In summary, interventional therapy for liver cancer can control tumor growth to a certain extent, alleviate symptoms and improve quality of life, but it cannot cure liver cancer. Patients should consider factors such as tumor size, location, liver function, etc., as well as their own physical condition and treatment needs, and make appropriate choices under the guidance of doctors. In addition, for liver cancer patients, in addition to active treatment, daily care and diet conditioning should also be paid attention to, maintaining a good mentality, and actively cooperating with treatment to improve treatment effect and quality of life.
