Narrow band imaging cholangioscopy in hilar cholangiocarcinoma.
Per oral cholangioscopy has been developed as a diagnostic modality for evaluation of bile duct lesions. Per oral cholangioscope with narrow band imaging (NBI) system can provide good quality images of bile duct lesions. There is limited data on per oral cholangioscopy using NBI in biliary tract diseases. We report our experience of NBI cholangioscopy in hilar strictures.
متن کاملAdvances in diagnosis and treatment of hilar cholangiocarcinoma – a review
Hilar cholangiocarcinoma (HC) is a rare tumor that causes devastating disease. In the late stages, this carcinoma primarily invades the portal vein and metastasizes to the hepatic lobes; it is associated with a poor prognosis. HC is diagnosed by its clinical manifestation and results of imaging techniques such as ultrasound, computed tomography, magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography, endo...

Meaningful experience with these tumors has been limited to a few centers. Recent reports with increasing numbers of patients have allowed the construction of rational approaches to these patients. It is clear from these reports that complete resection with negat...
متن کاملRadiological Imaging for Assessing the Respectability of Hilar Cholangiocarcinoma: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Hilar cholangiocarcinoma (HCC) remains one of the most difficult tumors to stage and treat. The aim of the study was to assess the diagnostic efficiency of computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and positron emission tomography/computer tomography (PET/CT) in evaluating the resectability of HCC. A systematic search was performed of the PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane databases...
متن کاملResection of Hilar Cholangiocarcinoma
OBJECTIVE Morbidity and mortality involved in the resection of hilar cholangiocarcinoma were reviewed retrospectively. The clinicopathologic and laboratory parameters that might influence the patient's survival also were re-evaluated. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA Although much progress has been made in the diagnosis and management of hilar cholangiocarcinoma, long-term outlook for most patients re...
