Area of Science:

Hepatobiliary surgery
Oncology
Gastroenterology

Background:

Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICCA) represents a rare and aggressive malignancy originating in the bile ducts.
Late diagnosis is common due to asymptomatic presentation, limiting surgical candidacy to 20-30% of patients.
The prognosis for ICCA is generally poor, necessitating identification of critical prognostic factors.

Approach:

A systematic review of English-language articles published between January 2000 and December 2023 was conducted.
Databases searched included Cochrane Library, PubMed, Embase, MedLine, Web of Science, Elsevier, and Google Scholar.
The review focused on identifying prognostic factors impacting long-term patient outcomes.

Key Points:

Socioeconomic factors significantly influence patient prognosis.

Tumor morphology, size, number, and extension are critical prognostic indicators.

Resection margins are a vital factor in determining long-term survival.

Conclusions:

Early recognition and identification of these prognostic factors are crucial.
Tailoring treatment strategies based on identified factors can improve long-term outcomes for ICCA patients.
Further research into optimizing management based on these prognosticators is warranted.
