متن کاملUnresectable hilar cholangiocarcinoma: multimodality approach with percutaneous treatment associated with radiotherapy and chemotherapy.
Klatskin-type cholangiocarcinoma is a rare tumor, bearing a very poor prognosis: at diagnosis, most patients can only undergo palliation. Evaluation of outcome, mean survival and quality of life was performed in patients with unresectable hilar cholangiocarcinoma treated with multimodality approach in comparison with surgical palliation, biliary stenting or brachytherapy alone. Twenty-six patie...
