Epidemiology of Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Katherine A. McGlynn, Jessica L. Petrick, Hashem B. El‐Serag – 22 April 2020 – Liver cancer is a major contributor to the worldwide cancer burden.

As the principal histologic type of liver cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) accounts for the great majority of liver cancer diagnoses and deaths. Hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) remain, at present, the most important global risk factors for HCC, but their importance will likely decline in the coming years.
