Regional or Extend LymphAdenectomy During Resection of Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is one of the common malignant tumors. Lymph node metastasis is an important factor affecting the poor prognosis of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. The eighth edition of the AJCC guidelines recommends at least 6 lymph nodes to be used for staging. The American Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Association also recommends the removal of hilar lymph nodes as part of the radical surgery for intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. However, some scholars have found that patients with regional lymph nodes have similar survival rates. This contradictory result has prompted more scholars to conduct clinical research to explore the necessity and standardization of lymph node dissection in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.
