Anatomy
• The largest organ in the body (1200 –1500g)
• Lies in the right upper quadrant
• Pyramid like shape• Has a double blood
supply: portal vein and hepatic artery

Function of the liver
• Metabolism– anabolism of protein, cholesterol, etc.– catabolism of protein, fat, etc.
• Nutrient storage and supply• Detoxification• Bile production and excretion• Regulation of circulating blood
volume

Neoplasms in the liverClassification of Liver Cancer
Liver Cancer Study Group of Japan
• Primary liver cancer– Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC)– Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma (CCC)– Combined HCC & CCC– Cystadenocarcinoma– Hepatoblastoma
• Metastatic Liver cancer– Colon, Rectum, Breast etc.
![Page 9: Clinical Session 3 Liver Cancer - PTCOG - Home](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022012808/61bd5854d04f1727506ec93b/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
• Primary liver cancer is the fifth most common cancer worldwide and the third most common cause of cancer mortality.
• Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) accounts for between 85% and 90% of primary liver cancers.
• Today’s talk will be focused on HCC

Epidemiology of HCC
• Variations among geographic regions, racial and ethnic groups
• Male : Female = 2 : 1 – 4 : 1• Environmental potentially preventable risk

Clinical presentation• Asymptomatic in early stage to sometimes
advanced stage• Screening for cohort at risk by elevation of AFP
or ultrasonography• Symptoms: Hepatic insufficiency
– General fatigue, jaundice, ascites, leg edema• Symptoms: Portal hypertension
– Vascular spider, GI bleeding• Symptoms: Tumore-related
– Palpable mass, pain, abdominal fullness– Symptom induced by metastasis

Diagnostic Work-Up• Clinical history of
– Hepatitis, jaundice, blood transfusion– Drugs, Aflatoxin
• Blood test– Serology for HBV, HCV, AFP, PIVKA-II– Liver function
• Imaging – Ultrasound, CT, MRI
• Biopsy – who plan to have a nonsurgical Tx

Hypervascular malignant foci in borderline lesions of HCC
Shinmura R, Eur Radiol 2008
CTAP CTHA Dynamic CT
Transverse CTAP shows a spotty hypoattenuating area within an slightlyhypoattenuating nodule. Transverse CTHA shows a spotty hyperattenuatingarea within the isoattenuating nodule. Transverse on the arterial dominant phase of dynamic CT shows a hypervascular focus within a slightly hypoattenuating nodule.

Requirements for the treatment of HCC
– Because of underlying liver dysfunction and multicentric occurrence
• High local control rate• To save functioning liver volume
as much as possible• Repeatable for newly developing
lesions
![Page 29: Clinical Session 3 Liver Cancer - PTCOG - Home](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022012808/61bd5854d04f1727506ec93b/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Treatment options for HCC• Surgical resection
– The mainstay Tx but majority are not eligible• Liver transplantation
– Solitary, < 5cm or < 3 nodules, < 3cm• Percutaneous ablation: RFA, PEI
– < 3 nodules, < 3 cm• Transcatheter Arterial Chemoembolization
– Suitable for multiple, unresectable HCC• Radiotherapy: particles, SBRT, Y90-IRT

Conclusions
• Proton beam therapy is effective and safe for the treatment of patients with HCC.
• Local control is expected even for the case of big tumor size or with vascular invasion.
• Proton beam therapy is repeatable, if remnant liver function is good enough.
