Question :

I have liver cancer with diamenter 14 x 23 x 24 cm, is it posibble to be treated? I am from central kalimantan.

Answer :

Dear Mr. Yudi,

Liver cancer treatment can be performed with alternative treatment:

  • TACE (Trans Arterial Chemotherapy Embolism) by interventional radiology specialist(Dr. Daniel, Sp.Rad), and can be performed if the feeding artery is found to decrease the cancer size.
  • Oral therapy with tablets sorafenib

All treatments are performed only to  minimize the tumor / cancer.
