Why don't you want to open your eyes in the late stage of liver cancer? Two factors in the late stage of liver cancer cause the condition to worsen

In the late stage of liver cancer, if a patient does not eat, drink, speak, or open his eyes, it may be caused by hepatic encephalopathy or liver failure.

1. Hepatic encephalopathy:

It is a disease that causes severe damage to liver cells and dysfunction of the central nervous system. Its clinical manifestations can be divided into five stages. Liver cells are severely damaged due to various reasons, resulting in severe dysfunction of liver metabolism, secretion, synthesis, detoxification, immunity and other functions. Toxic substances cannot be metabolized and eliminated by the liver, accumulate in the body, enter the systemic circulation, and act on the central nervous system through the blood-brain barrier, causing dysfunction of the central nervous system. As a result, patients may not eat, drink, speak or open their eyes in the late stage of liver cancer.

2. Liver failure:

It refers to a syndrome of severe disorder or decompensation of liver synthesis, detoxification, excretion and biotransformation caused by various reasons, with coagulation dysfunction, jaundice, hepatic encephalopathy and ascites as the main clinical manifestations. The main causes of liver failure are viral infection, drug and alcohol liver damage, fatty liver of pregnancy, autoimmune liver disease, etc. Patients often show severe complications such as extreme fatigue, yellow skin, severe coagulation dysfunction, upper gastrointestinal bleeding, hepatic encephalopathy, etc., and may also not eat, drink, talk or open their eyes in the late stage of liver cancer.
