Malignancy suspicion is crucial for hepatolithiasis patients. For resectable cholangiocarcinoma, hepatic resection offers the best survival outcomes, with 1- and 2-year survival rates of 81% and 51% respectively after curative resection.

Area of Science:

  • Hepatobiliary surgery
  • Surgical oncology
  • Gastroenterology

Background:

  • Hepatolithiasis (bile duct stones) is frequently associated with malignancy.
  • Cholangiocarcinoma is a significant complication of hepatolithiasis.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To summarize the management and outcomes of patients with cholangiocarcinoma and hepatolithiasis.
  • To evaluate the efficacy of surgical interventions for this patient cohort.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective analysis of 20 patients diagnosed with cholangiocarcinoma and hepatolithiasis.
  • Review of clinical records, including demographics, clinical presentation, diagnostics, surgical management, and therapeutic results.

Main Results:

  • Hepatic resection was performed in 14 patients, with 3 undergoing palliative resection.

  • Operative morbidity and mortality for hepatic resection were 36% and 7%, respectively.
  • Curative hepatic resection in 11 patients resulted in 1- and 2-year survival rates of 81% and 51%.

    • Conclusions:

    • A high index of suspicion for malignancy is essential when managing hepatolithiasis.
    • Hepatic resection is the preferred treatment for resectable cholangiocarcinoma associated with hepatolithiasis.
