UNDERSTANDING HEPATOBLASTOMA IN CHILDREN

BLOOD MARKERS FOR HEPATOBLASTOMA

AFP is the main blood marker used to detect hepatoblastoma. Early detection improves treatment success.

HEPATOBLASTOMA ALTERNATIVE NAMES

Also called hepatic embryonal carcinoma or embryonal liver tumor. Knowing terms aids accurate diagnosis.

TYPES OF HEPATOBLASTOMA

Epithelial and mixed epithelial mesenchymal types. Type guides treatment and expected outcomes.

LOOK AT THE BLOG

WHO IS AFFECTED

Mostly children under 3, slightly more boys. Rare condition but requires early recognition.

SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS

Abdominal swelling, pain, loss of appetite, fatigue, or weight loss. Detect early for best outcomes.

DIAGNOSIS METHODS

Ultrasound, CT, MRI, and biopsy confirm hepatoblastoma and its type. Imaging shows tumor stage.

TREATMENT OPTIONS

Surgery, chemotherapy, and sometimes liver transplant. Tailored care improves survival rates.

ADVANCES AND RESEARCH

Molecular targeted therapy and immunotherapy show promise in treating young liver cancer patients.
