Liver Tumors/Cancers

What is a tumor?
Tumors are abnormal masses of tissue that form when cells begin to reproduce at an increased rate. The liver can grow both noncancerous (benign) and cancerous (malignant) tumors.

What are noncancerous liver tumors?
Noncancerous (benign) tumors are quite common and usually symptom-free. Often they are not diagnosed until an ultrasound, CT scan, or MRI is performed.
There are several types of benign tumors, including:

Hepatocellular Adenoma

Another non-cancer tumor of the liver is a cyst. However I believe there is a very slight chance of some malignant cells. Your doctor can tell the difference between a cancer tumor and a cyst through ultrasound and CT
