Microwave Ablation Versus Liver Resection for Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma

Microwave Ablation Versus Liver Resection for Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma Within Milan Criteria

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Thermal ablation has been recommended by worldwide guidelines as first-line treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), while evidence regarding its efficacy for primary intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA) is lacking. The goal of this observational study is to study the efficacy of ablation in treating iCCA by comparing its prognosis with surgery. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Whether microwave ablation could achieve similar efficacy with liver resection in treating iCCA * What is the risk factor for ablation or surgery in treating iCCA * What kind of iCCA patients could receive ablation as their first-line treatment In this real-world multicenter cohort study, we will collect data of iCCA patients from hospitals who underwent microwave ablation (MWA) or liver resection (LR) for tumors within Milan criteria. Survival will be compared between patients treated by MWA or LR.
