Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is associated with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma and not with extrahepatic form: definitive evidence from meta-ana…
2020
Background Cholangiocarcinoma is a cancer with poor prognosis. The detection of risk factors is fundamental to identify subjects at higher risk of cholangiocarcinoma. Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) represents a leading cause of chronic liver disease worldwide. Recent data suggested that NAFLD increases the risk of cholangiocarcinoma development. However, it is necessary to better explain the strength of association between NAFLD and cholangiocarcinoma. Methods A systematic research of current case-control, cohort, clinical trial and meta-analysis on the main electronic databases was made. A recent systematic review was recognized. We performed cumulative meta-analyses with sensiti…
Repeated resection for recurrent intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma: A retrospective German multicentre study.
2020
Background Tumour recurrence is common after resection of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC). Repeated resection is a potential curative treatment, but outcomes are not well-defined thus far. The aim of this retrospective multicentre cohort study was to show the feasibility and survival of repeated resection of ICC recurrence. Methods Data were collected from 18 German hepato-pancreatico-biliary centres for patients who underwent repeated exploration of recurrent ICC between January 2008 and December 2017. Primary end points were overall (OS) and recurrence-free survival from the day of primary and repeated resection. Results Of 156 patients who underwent repeated exploration for recurre…
