Primary liver cancer is the sixth most commonly occurring cancer in the world and the second largest contributor to cancer mortality. 1 Globally, the most common histology (approximately 80%) is hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), a tumor of the parenchymal cells of the liver. The second most common histology (approximately 15%) is intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC), which arises in the cholangiocytes of the intrahepatic bile duct. Large geographic disparities in incidence and mortality of all types of liver cancer exist.
