Hilar cholangiocarcinoma represents more than half of all cholangiocarcinoma cases, having poor prognosis and presenting a median overall survival after diagnosis of 12-24 months. In patients who have unresectable tumors with a better prognosis, the proposal to perform liver transplantation emerged for expanding the possibility of free margins by performing total hepatectomy.
To provide a Brazilian protocol for liver transplantation in patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma.
The protocol was carried out by two Brazilian institutions which perform a large volume of resections and liver transplantations, based on the study carried out at the Mayo Clinic. The elaboration of the protocol was conducted in four stages.
A protocol proposal for this disease is presented, which needs to be validated for clinical use.
The development of a liver transplantation protocol for cholangiocarcinoma aims not only to standardize the treatment, but also enable a better assessment of the surgical results in the future.
肝门部胆管癌占胆管癌病例的一半以上,预后较差,诊断后中位总生存期为 12-24 个月。对于有不可切除肿瘤且预后较好的患者,提出行肝移植的建议,以通过行全肝切除术扩大无肿瘤切缘的可能性。
提供巴西肝门部胆管癌患者肝移植的方案。
该方案由两家巴西机构制定,这两家机构进行了大量的切除术和肝移植,该方案基于梅奥诊所的研究。方案的制定分四个阶段进行。
提出了一种针对这种疾病的方案建议,该方案需要经过验证才能用于临床。
制定胆管癌肝移植方案不仅旨在规范治疗,而且还能为未来更好地评估手术结果提供依据。
