Comparison of Endoscopic Ultrasound‐guided Tissue Acquisition and Percutaneous Liver Biopsy for Diagnosing Focal Liver Lesions: A Retrospective Single‐Center Study

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aim Accurate diagnosis of focal liver lesions (FLLs) is crucial for determining the appropriate treatment strategies. Although percutaneous liver biopsy (PLB) is the standard diagnostic procedure, it has limitations, particularly for difficult‐to‐access lesions.

Distal Bile Duct Metastasis From Rectal Cancer: The Diagnostic Contribution of Intraductal Ultrasonography

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT A 49‐year‐old male developed liver dysfunction during chemotherapy for rectal cancer located in the rectosigmoid region. Although magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography initially indicated sclerosing cholangitis, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography and intraductal ultrasonography revealed multiple non‐contiguous intraductal ...

Whole-exome sequencing reveals the origin and evolution of hepato-cholangiocarcinoma

Nature Communications, 2018
Hepatocellular-cholangiocarcinoma (H-ChC) is a rare subtype of liver cancer with features of hepatocellular carcinoma and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. Here, the authors utilize whole exome sequencing to highlight the monoclonal origin and stemness of

A Case of Obstructive Jaundice due to Bile Duct Tumor Thrombus of Hepatocellular Carcinoma Diagnosed by Peroral Cholangioscopy

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
Abstract While hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) often invades the portal or hepatic vein to form tumor thrombus, tumor thrombus in the bile duct is rare. In such cases, differentiation from intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma is difficult, and the tumor often appears as a smooth, yellowish‐white, polypoid mass within the bile duct lumen.

Case report: Rare observation of thyroid-like cholangiocarcinoma

Frontiers in Medicine
Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma is a highly malignant tumor with a poor prognosis. Radical surgical resection remains the “gold standard” for improving patient outcomes; however, only a minority of patients qualify for this approach.

Scheduled Inside Plastic Stent Exchange Prevents Cholangitis and Reduces Unplanned Hospitalization in Patients With Unresectable Malignant Hilar Biliary Obstruction

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives To prevent cholangitis in patients with unresectable malignant hilar biliary obstruction (MHBO), we recently implemented scheduled inside plastic stent (IS) exchange every 2–4 months. This study aimed to evaluate whether this strategy prevents cholangitis onset and reduces unplanned hospitalizations without increasing adverse events.

Five Cases of Hepatic Mesenchymal Tumors Diagnosed by Endoscopic Ultrasound‐Guided Tissue Acquisition

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Percutaneous biopsy remains the gold standard for diagnosing focal liver lesions; however, endoscopic ultrasound‐guided tissue acquisition (EUS‐TA) has recently emerged as a promising alternative. Although its diagnostic performance is favorable, most available evidence has focused on epithelial tumors, and reports on mesenchymal tumors are ...

Short-term and Long-term Clinical Outcomes of Combined Caudate Lobectomy for Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma Involving the Hepatic Hilus: A Propensity Score Analysis

Gut and Liver
Background/Aims: Extended hepatectomy combined with caudate lobe resection has been approved for the radical resection of hilar cholangiocarcinoma. There was a lack of credible research on the clinical value of caudate lobectomy (CL) for intrahepatic ...
