  • Title: Management and extent of resection for intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.
    Author: Carpizo DR, D'Angelica M.
    Journal: Surg Oncol Clin N Am; 2009 Apr; 18(2):289-305, viii-ix. PubMed ID: 19306813.
    Abstract:
    Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma is the second most common primary liver cancer behind hepatocellular cancer. Although it is an uncommon malignancy, several reports have documented a significant rise in incidence, not only in the United States, but worldwide over the last several decades. As a result, interest in understanding the presentation, diagnosis, natural history, and efficacy of various treatment modalities has increased. This article reviews the clinical presentation, preoperative work-up, surgical management, and outcomes of patients undergoing resection for intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. Treatment options in unresectable patients are also reviewed.
