Is hepatitis c a liver cancer yes or no?
Hepatitis C is a viral infection that primarily affects the liver. While chronic hepatitis C can lead to serious liver complications, including cirrhosis (scarring of the liver) and liver cancer, it's important to note that not everyone with hepatitis C will develop liver cancer. Hepatitis C is a major risk factor for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), which is the most common type of primary liver cancer. Chronic inflammation and liver damage caused by the hepatitis C virus over many years can contribute to the development of liver cancer. Regular monitoring, early detection, and appropriate medical management of hepatitis C are crucial in preventing or managing complications, including liver cancer. Advances in antiviral medications have made it possible to cure many cases of hepatitis C, reducing the risk of liver-related complications.
