Key Words Hilar cholangiocarcinoma; hepatic resection; caudate lobe resection; CA19-9; liver cell failure
Core Tip Hilar cholangiocarcinoma is an uncom-mon malignancy with a relatively poor prognosis. Surgery remains the only line of treatment offering the possibility of cure. The central location of the tumor and its close relationship to vascular structures at the hepatic hilum have resulted in a low resectability rate. Five year survivors were younger at diagnosis than those surviving less than 5 years. Major hepatic resection and caudate lobe resection achieved better R0 resection rate. Liver status, resection of caudate lobe, lymph node status, R0 resection and CA19-9 were demonstrated to be independent risk factors for long term survival.
