Abstract
Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA) is the second most common primary liver malignancy with increasing rates of incidence and mortality. Surgical resection is curative for patients who are diagnosed at early stages of iCCA. Limited data exist regarding risk factors for postresection recurrence and overall survival as iCCA is rare, and majority of patients are diagnosed at an advanced stage and thus not candidates for resection. We aimed to analyze clinical and laboratory characteristics, tumor histology, locoregional invasion, recurrence and survival in patients undergoing curative resection for iCCA.
期刊介绍:
European Journal of Gastroenterology & Hepatology publishes papers reporting original clinical and scientific research which are of a high standard and which contribute to the advancement of knowledge in the field of gastroenterology and hepatology.
The journal publishes three types of manuscript: in-depth reviews (by invitation only), full papers and case reports. Manuscripts submitted to the journal will be accepted on the understanding that the author has not previously submitted the paper to another journal or had the material published elsewhere. Authors are asked to disclose any affiliations, including financial, consultant, or institutional associations, that might lead to bias or a conflict of interest.
