Common causes of hepatocellular carcinoma include hepatitis B or C, alcoholic liver cirrhosis, hemochromatosis, and hepatic prophyrias.


==Common Causes==


==Causes==
Common causes of hepatocellular carcinoma include include the following:
Acute and chronic hepatic [[porphyrias]] (acute intermittent [[porphyria]], [[porphyria cutanea tarda]], [[hereditary coproporphyria]], [[variegate porphyria]]) and tyrosinemia type I are risk factors for hepatocellular carcinoma.  The diagnosis of an acute hepatic porphyria (AIP, HCP, VP) should be sought in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma without typical risk factors of hepatitis B or C, alcoholic liver cirrhosis or hemochromatosis.  Both active and latent genetic carriers of acute hepatic porphyrias
are at risk for this cancer, although latent genetic carriers have developed the cancer at a later age than those with classic symptoms.  Patients with acute hepatic porphyrias should be monitored for hepatocellular carcinoma.
