[|AI|]  Hello, I can understand your concern for your uncles healthTreatment for liver cancer depend on size, location, involvement of nearby structures, involvement of vascular structures and distant spread. Where the tumor is located? How big the tumor is? What other structures are involved other than left portal vein? What is overall status of liver? Based on all these question treatment for liver cancer range from surgery for tumor removal or part of liver removal, chemotherapy, intervention procedures (radio frequency ablation of tumor, direct injection of chemotherapy and embolization in branch of hepatic artery which supply blood to tumor).Thus, treatment options are wide, and they are based on stage of tumor with good results from early stage of tumor
