Yes. HCC detected at an early stage (single tumour less than 2cm) has a 5-year survival exceeding 70% with surgical resection or liver transplant. All cirrhotic patients should have a surveillance ultrasound every 6 months to catch HCC before symptoms develop.
Liver resection removes only the tumour-bearing segment and is suitable for patients with good liver function and no cirrhosis. Liver transplant replaces the entire liver, curing both the cancer and the underlying cirrhosis — preferred for patients within Milan criteria. Dr. Srinivas will recommend the correct approach after reviewing your scans and blood tests.
Yes. Dr. Srinivas performs robotic liver resection using the Da Vinci Xi system at Kauvery Hospital, Bangalore. Robotic resection offers faster recovery (3–5 days vs. 7–10 days), less blood loss, and minimal scarring compared to open surgery.
For early-stage HCC, 5-year survival after resection is 40–70%, and after liver transplant within Milan criteria is over 70%. Outcomes depend heavily on tumour stage, underlying liver function, and surgical expertise.
