Abstract
Backgrounds/Aims Reported incidence of extrahepatic bile duct cancer is higher in Asians than in Western populations. Korea, in particular, is one of the countries with the highest incidence rates of extrahepatic bile duct cancer in the world. Although research and innovative therapeutic modalities for extrahepatic bile duct cancer are emerging, clinical guidelines are currently unavailable in Korea. The Korean Society of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Surgery in collaboration with related societies (Korean Pancreatic and Biliary Surgery Society, Korean Society of Abdominal Radiology, Korean Society of Medical Oncology, Korean Society of Radiation Oncology, Korean Society of Pathologists, and Korean Society of Nuclear Medicine) decided to establish clinical guideline for extrahepatic bile duct cancer in June 2021. Methods Contents of the guidelines were developed through subgroup meetings for each key question and a preliminary draft was finalized through a Clinical Guidelines Committee workshop. Results In November 2021, the finalized draft was presented for public scrutiny during a formal hearing. Conclusions The extrahepatic guideline committee believed that this guideline could be helpful in the treatment of patients.

Accuracy and limitations of preoperative assessment of longitudinal spread of perihilar cholangiocarcinoma. Asian J Surg 2023; 46:4743-4748. [PMID: 37085419 DOI: 10.1016/j.asjsur.2023.03.166] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/30/2023] [Revised: 03/22/2023] [Accepted: 03/30/2023] [Indexed: 04/23/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Although surgical resection offers the only chance of cure of perihilar cholangiocarcinoma and R1 resection has a poor prognosis, there is no consensus on optimal preoperative assessment of its longitudinal spread. We aimed to establish the optimal means of achieving this goal. METHODS This was a retrospective, single-center study of 61 patients who had undergone multi-detector row computed tomography, endoscopic retrograde cholangiography, intraductal ultrasonography, and mapping biopsy prior to resection of perihilar cholangiocarcinomas in our institute from January 2010 and December 2021. RESULTS The most accurate single methods for assessing longitudinal spread were intraductal ultrasonography and mapping biopsy (both 72.1%). A combination of all four assessment methods was accurate in 51 (83.6%) of our patients. Independent risk factors for inaccuracy were Bismuth-Corlette Type IV and high histologic-grade tumors. The R0 resection rate was higher with accurate than inaccurate assessments (90.2% vs. 30.0%, P < 0.001). R0 resection was associated with significantly better relapse-free survival than R1 resection (P = 0.006). However, overall survival did not differ between these groups. CONCLUSION Preoperative assessment of longitudinal spread of perihilar cholangiocarcinomas by four different modalities is optimal, achieving 83.6% accuracy and a 90.2% R0 resection rate.

Radiologic Evaluation and Structured Reporting Form for Extrahepatic Bile Duct Cancer: 2019 Consensus Recommendations from the Korean Society of Abdominal Radiology. Korean J Radiol 2020; 22:41-62. [PMID: 32901457 PMCID: PMC7772383 DOI: 10.3348/kjr.2019.0803] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/31/2019] [Revised: 05/06/2020] [Accepted: 05/11/2020] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Radiologic imaging is important for evaluating extrahepatic bile duct (EHD) cancers; it is used for staging tumors and evaluating the suitability of surgical resection, as surgery may be contraindicated in some cases regardless of tumor stage. However, the published general recommendations for EHD cancer and recommendations guided by the perspectives of radiologists are limited. The Korean Society of Abdominal Radiology (KSAR) study group for EHD cancer developed key questions and corresponding recommendations for the radiologic evaluation of EHD cancer and organized them into 4 sections: nomenclature and definition, imaging technique, cancer evaluation, and tumor response. A structured reporting form was also developed to allow the progressive accumulation of standardized data, which will facilitate multicenter studies and contribute more evidence for the development of recommendations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In the revised Japanese and Worldwide TNM classification of distal bile duct cancer, the lymph node status is defined as N0 or N1 without reference to the tumor location or extent, according to the presence/absence of metastasis to the regional lymph nodes. METHODS Data of 94 patients with distal bile duct cancer who had undergone pancreaticoduodenectomy were reviewed retrospectively. In formalin-fixed specimens, we measured the longitudinal lengths from the papilla to the lower and upper margins of the tumor, in order to investigate the correlation of the tumor extent with the likely sites of nodal metastasis. RESULTS The frequencies of metastasis to the posterior pancreaticoduodenal nodes (7.1 %) and superior mesenteric artery nodes (0.0 %) were significantly lower in the cases in which the length from the papilla to the lower margin of the tumor was ≥30 mm. The frequencies of nodal metastasis to the common hepatic artery nodes (0.0 %) and hepatoduodenal ligament nodes (6.7 %) were significantly lower in the cases in which the length from the papilla to the upper margin was <40 mm. CONCLUSION The likely sites of nodal metastasis differ according to the extent of the tumor in cases of bile duct cancer.

Diagnostic accuracy of multidetector-row computed tomography for hilar cholangiocarcinoma. J Gastroenterol Hepatol 2010; 25:731-7.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM The aim of this study was to investigate the diagnostic reliability of multidetector-row computed tomography (MDCT) for the evaluation of tumor spread in hilar cholangiocarcinoma. METHODS Images obtained from a 16-detector row scanner of 22 patients were interpreted. The diagnostic accuracy of longitudinal ductal spread, vertical invasion (including hepatic parenchyma), and lymph node metastasis was assessed with reference to histopathological findings. RESULTS The location of the tumor was correctly diagnosed in 95% of cases (21/22), but in five of these cases, the cut end of the intrahepatic bile duct was positive, resulting in 77% diagnostic accuracy for longitudinal spread. Among the patients with a negative bile duct surgical margin, there was a significant difference in the measurement of tumor spread between MDCT and microscopic investigation (P < 0.001). For vertical invasion, the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), and negative predictive value (NPV) of MDCT were 69%, 100%, 100%, and 69% for the liver parenchyma, respectively. The sensitivity, specificity, PPV, and NPV of MDCT for lymph node metastasis were 50%, 75%, 43%, and 80%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The diagnostic accuracy of MDCT for tumor location and vertical invasion was satisfactory, but ductal spread was underestimated in comparison with microscopic measurements.
