    Curative therapy is indicated in early stages, which include very early stage (single nodule <2 cm), curable by surgical resection (survival 50-70% five years after surgical resection) and early stage (single nodule of 2–5 cm, or up to 3 nodules <3 cm) which can be treated by radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and liver transplantation.

    Studies from the late 2000s obtained higher survival rates ranging from 67% to 91%. [62] Other estimates of 5 year survival after liver transplantation range from 60-60% with a 50% survival rate at 10 years. [6] The risk of HCC recurrence after liver transplantation is less than 15%. [6]

    The survival rate for FLC largely depends on whether (and to what degree) the cancer has metastasized, i.e. spread to the lymph nodes or other organs. Distant spread (metastases), significantly reduces the median survival rate. [19] Five-year survival rates vary between 40 and 90%. [19]

    The cause of liver hemangiomas remains unknown; however, it may have congenital and genetic components. [5] They are not known to become malignant based on the available existing literature. [5] Liver hemangiomas do not usually cause symptoms. [2] [5] They are usually small, with sizes up to 10 centimeters. [5] Their size tends to remain stable ...

    In terms of mortality, the 5-year survival rate for liver and intrahepatic bile duct cancers in the United States is 19.6%. [79] In the United States, there is an estimated 1% chance of getting liver cancer across the lifespan, which makes this cancer relatively rare. [79] Despite the low number of cases, it is one of the top causes of cancer ...

    It is the most common benign liver tumour, and is usually asymptomatic and diagnosed incidentally on radiological imaging or during laparotomy for other intra-abdominal issues. Liver hemangiomas are thought to be congenital in origin with an incidence rate of 0.4 – 7.3% as reported in autopsy series. [1] [2]

    The most common cancer among women in the United States is breast cancer (123.7 per 100,000), followed by lung cancer (51.5 per 100,000) and colorectal cancer (33.6 per 100,000), but lung cancer surpasses breast cancer as the leading cause of cancer death among women. [13]
