Who needs Liver Cancer?
An honest read on your situation — no pressure, no over-treatment.
Suspicious liver lesion, rising AFP, or known cirrhosis
Severe or sudden pain, high fever, persistent vomiting, yellowing of the eyes/skin, or bleeding — get medical help immediately.
An honest consultation will tell you clearly whether you need treatment — or simply reassurance.
Common symptoms & how it's diagnosed
Symptoms & diagnosis
Early liver cancer often has no symptoms and is found on surveillance scans. Later signs include upper-abdomen pain, weight loss and jaundice. Diagnosis uses ultrasound, CT/MRI and tumour markers.

Your treatment journey
Call, WhatsApp or use the form — same-week slots. Share your story and reports.
A thorough assessment and only the tests you genuinely need — no unnecessary investigations.
The least-invasive effective option, explained clearly with costs before you decide.
Laparoscopic technique for a faster recovery, with guided aftercare so you heal well and stay well.
Why laparoscopic & robot-assisted, wherever possible
The right approach depends on your specific case — Dr. Avinash Tank will recommend the least-invasive option that is safe and effective for you.
A traditional larger incision. Still sometimes necessary for very complex, recurrent or emergency cases where laparoscopic access isn't safe.
Small cuts, a camera and fine instruments — less pain, a shorter hospital stay and a faster return to normal life. Our default approach wherever clinically possible.
3D HD vision and wristed instruments for extra precision in complex or narrow-access surgery — available for suitable cases at Dwarika Hospital — Gastro, Bariatric & Laparoscopic Surgery Center.
Early tumours are treated by surgical resection or, in selected cases, liver transplantation — both potentially curative. Ablation, embolisation and systemic therapy are used depending on stage and liver function.
Preparing for your procedure
General guidance only — your exact pre-procedure instructions (fasting, medication changes, tests) are confirmed personally by Dr. Avinash Tank's team for your specific case.
Come prepared
- Bring any prior reports, scans or test results
- List your current medications & allergies
- Note when symptoms started and what makes them worse
What to expect
- Any pre-op tests will be explained and arranged for you
- Clear fasting & medication instructions given personally
- Arrange an attendant and transport for the day
Arrival
- Arrive at the time your care team confirms
- Wear comfortable, loose clothing
- Bring your ID, reports and insurance details
Recovery, diet & exercise
Exact timelines depend on your specific procedure, health and how it's performed — laparoscopic techniques generally mean less pain and a faster return to normal life. Your surgeon will confirm what to expect for your case during consultation.
Most laparoscopic procedures are day-care or short-stay, with a gradual return to light activity within days rather than weeks.
A staged, doctor-guided diet plan supports healing — specific dietary advice is given after your procedure, tailored to what was done.
