What is liver cancer?
Liver cancer is a cancer that develops in the liver or migrates to the liver from another location. Primary liver cancers include hepatocellular carcinoma and cholangiocarcinoma. Secondary liver cancer, also called metastatic liver cancer, happens when cancer from another organ spreads to the liver.
