You may stay in the hospital for 5 to 7 days or as long as 2 weeks after surgery. What is an ablation of the liver? Liver Cancer: Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) Radiofrequency ablation, or RFA, is used primarily to shrink or slow down the growth of hepatocellular carcinoma, and is not considered a curative procedure, although survival rates are good.

How dangerous is cancer of the liver? Regional means cancer has grown into nearby organs or has spread to nearby lymph nodes, and includes stages IIIC and IVA cancers. For regional stage liver cancer, the 5-year survival rate is about 11%. Distant means that cancer has spread to distant organs or tissues and is the same as stage IVB. Can liver cancer be cured with a liver transplant?

What is the survival rate for liver cancer? For the 43% of people who are diagnosed at an early stage, the 5-year survival rate is 31%. If liver cancer has spread to surrounding tissues or organs and/or the regional lymph nodes, the 5-year survival rate is 11%. If cancer has spread to a distant part of the body, the 5-year survival rate is 3%. How long do you have to live with liver cancer? Without treatment, the median survival for stage A liver cancer is 3 years.
