Why not do the surgery, cut off the part of the cancer cells and let the patients live? If you do this, the patients only live for 3 months, then I don't think it's worthy for trouble and the sufferings. The patients might just go ahead and do the "natural cure" and probably will get much better result.
Hepatocellular ca is agressive plus there is a feild defect , plus it occurs in a damaged liver, even after surgery these patients live lesser than 3 months , plus doing surgery in liver compromised patients kills >30% of the patients with surgery itself . These are only a minority of the reasons TARE has a role over surgery in this specific subset. Surgery definetly has a role in HCC , but thats a big different subject
