Key Words Hilar cholangiocarcinoma; Klatskin tumor; Neoadjuvant treatement; Radiotherapy; Chemotherapy; Hepatic resection; Liver transplantation
Core Tip Surgery is the only potentially curative treatment for hilar cholangiorcinoma; however, most of the patients are considered not resectable because of the local extent. Neoadjuvant radiochemotherapy is supposed to increase R0 margins rate, or even to allow radical resection for locally advanced tumors, but few studies are available. Moreover, for patients with early stage tumors meeting the Mayo Clinic criteria, neoadjuvant therapy before liver transplantation has produced very good survivals, gaining worldwide acceptance. This is the first review to consider the role of neoadjuvant treatment for hilar cholangiocarcinoma, before resection as well as before liver transplantation.
