Several issues in the surgical treatment of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma

Journal Title: Journal of Clinical Hepatology - Year 2024, Vol 40, Issue 12

Abstract

Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) ranks second among malignant liver tumors and has high malignancy and poor prognosis. Currently, surgical treatment remains the only potentially curative therapy for ICC, but with a relatively low R0 resection rate and a short recurrence-free survival time after surgery. There are still several issues that need to be clarified, such as reasonable margin width, the value of anatomical hepatectomy, the role of lymph node dissection, and the oncological efficacy of laparoscopic liver resection and liver transplantation. This article reviews the research advances in surgical treatment strategies for ICC and related controversies, in order to provide a reference for clinical decision-making.
