There are several treatment options available for liver metastasis from breast cancer. The main treatments include chemotherapy, and if your breast cancer is hormone receptor-positive (HR-positive) or HER2-positive, your doctor may recommend hormone therapy or targeted therapy. Local treatments specifically targeting the liver metastases include:

- Surgery (if there's an isolated tumor that can be operated on)
- Radiation therapy using concentrated doses to kill cancer cells
- Thermal ablation treatments, which include radiofrequency ablation (using heat) or cryoablation (using extreme cold) to destroy tumors

Many patients have positive responses to these treatments. One MyBCTeam member shared that after having a tumor in their liver ablated, they had a great response to their treatment plan and were two years into their stage 4 diagnosis.
