Liver cancer is a leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide, accounting for more than 600,000 deaths each year The American Cancer Society’s estimates -of primary liver cancer and intrahepatic bile duct cancer in the United States for 2016 are about 39,230 of newly diagnosed cases - and 27,170 died people of these cancers .In Egypt; Liver cancer is a serious if not the most serious cancer problem. It is ranked the first among cancers in males (33.6%) and next to breast cancer among females based upon results of National Cancer Registry Program (NCRP 2008-2011) .The rising rates of HCC in Egypt are due to the high prevalence of hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus infection (HCV) among Egyptian population . Therefore; we need effective strategies for early detection and better management of HCC which will be of great value in developing countries with limited resources and high incidence rates of HCC, such as Egypt.
