Surgical Aproach to Perihiliar Cholangiocarcinoma
Main Article Content
Abstract
Cholangiocarcinoma represents a diverse group of epithelial cancers united by late diagnosis and poor outcomes, includes a cluster of highly heterogeneous biliary malignant tumours that can arise at any point of the biliary tree. Global incidence is increasing. Surgical resection is the only potentially curative treatment for patients with cholangiocarcinoma. Due to the incidence of this type of cancer, as well as its associated mortality, a timely diagnosis is necessary, but even more so, to be familiar with the surgical technique, since it is the only potentially curative option for patients suffering from this pathology.
