INTEGRIS Health Liver Transplant

INTEGRIS Health Nazih Zuhdi Transplant Institute Comprehensive Liver Cancer Program

At the INTEGRIS Health Nazih Zuhdi Transplant Institute, our Comprehensive Liver Cancer Program is an essential part of delivering comprehensive, coordinated care to patients with liver tumors and those being evaluated for liver transplantation.

A comprehensive liver cancer program is a multidisciplinary meeting where specialists review complex cases and work together to determine the most effective treatment plan for each patient. These discussions allow our experts to carefully evaluate imaging, pathology results, medical history, and overall liver function to guide important treatment decisions.

A Collaborative Team of Experts

Our comprehensive liver cancer program brings together specialists from across multiple disciplines, including:

  • Transplant Hepatologists and APPs
  • Transplant Surgeons
  • Medical oncologists
  • Radiation oncologists
  • Diagnostic radiologists
  • Interventional radiologist
  • Pathologists
  • Hepatology coordinators
  • Clinical specialists

By combining the expertise of these professionals, our team ensures that every patient benefits from a comprehensive evaluation and coordinated treatment approach.

Specialized Care for Liver Cancer

Comprehensive liver cancer program discussions are particularly important for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and other liver tumors. These meetings help our team determine transplant eligibility, evaluate tumor characteristics and identify treatments that may help control tumor growth while a patient is awaiting transplant. In many cases, therapies such as ablation, embolization or other targeted treatments may be recommended to help patients remain eligible for liver transplantation.

Personalized Treatment Planning

Our comprehensive liver cancer program meets monthly to review cases and develop individualized care plans. This collaborative approach helps ensure patients receive timely recommendations, coordinated care and treatment strategies tailored to their unique medical needs.

By bringing together leaders in transplant and cancer care, the Comprehensive Liver Cancer Program at the INTEGRIS Health Nazih Zuhdi Transplant Institute helps ensure that patients receive the highest level of expertise and support throughout their treatment journey.
