Core Tip |
Routine preoperative radiotherapy (3 times 3.5 Gray) to prevent the occurrence of seeding metastases was used in our tertiary center for 28 years in patients undergoing resection for perihilar cholangiocarcinoma. Seeding metastases occurred in 2 out of 171 patients (1.2%) undergoing resection between 2000 and 2019. Intraoperative bile cytology showed no significant difference in the presence of tumor cells in the bile of patients undergoing preoperative radiotherapy or not. Due to the current low incidence of seeding metastases, preoperative radiotherapy to prevent seeding metastases is now abandoned in our institution. |
