Pitfalls, challenges, and updates in adjuvant systemic treatment for resected biliary tract cancer
Expert Review of Gastroenterology & Hepatology, 2021Introduction: Unfortunately, potentially curative surgical resection is possible in approximately the 25% of biliary tract cancer (BTC) patients at diagnosis, and even following radical surgery, relapse rates remain high.

Biliary tract cancer is a rare cancer in most parts of the world, but it is relatively common in some countries and ethnic groups, such as Japan, Central and South America, eastern Europe and in American Indians, and Hispanics. In some countries, such as Japan, Sweden, Finland and Italy, the age adjusted mortality of biliary tract cancer has been ...

AbstractThis chapter reviews the epidemiology of biliary tract cancer. Many etiologic leads for biliary tract cancer have come from clinical observations, autopsy series, and descriptive epidemiologic studies. While a significant fraction of these tumors are related to gallstones (cholelithiasis), information on other risk factors is limited, due to ...

Although surgical resection is the only curative treatment for biliary tract cancer, in some cases, the disease is diagnosed as unresectable at initial presentation. There are few reports of conversion surgery after the initial treatment for unresectable

PURPOSE No standard adjuvant treatment currently is recommended in localized biliary tract cancer (BTC) after surgical resection. We aimed to assess whether gemcitabine and oxaliplatin chemotherapy (GEMOX) would increase relapse-free survival (RFS) while

[Biliary tract carcinomas. II. Biliary tract cancer].
Vutreshni bolesti, 1982The authors discuss the biliary tract carcinoma in the second paper on biliary tract carcinomas. It ranks second as regards frequency, being responsible for 4 per cent of the biliary operations. The analysis is based on 48 observations during the period 1952-1979 at the Chair of Abdominal Surgery - 31 males and 17 females (2:1).

Biliary tract cancer is the second most common primary hepatobiliary cancer, after hepatocellular carcinoma. The most frequent localisation is the gallbladder. Mean age of diagnosis is 65 years. The exact cause remains unknown despite well documented risk factors. The majority of these tumours are adenocarcinomas. Symptoms, frequently non specific, are

Radiotherapy for Biliary Tract Cancers
Seminars in Radiation Oncology, 2018Biliary tract cancers (BTCs), including intrahepatic, perihilar and distal cholangiocarcinomas, and gallbladder cancers, are a heterogeneous cohort of tumors that tend to present with advanced stage and with high rates of recurrence after surgical resection.
