Abstract
The molecular mechanisms underpinning the development of metachronous tumors in the remnant bile duct following surgical resection of primary biliary tract carcinomas (BTCs) are unknown. This study aimed to elucidate these mechanisms by evaluating the clinicopathologic features of BTCs, the alterations to 31 BTC-related genes on targeted sequencing, and the aberrant expression of p53, p16, SMAD4, ARID1A and β-catenin on immunohistochemistry. Twelve consecutive patients who underwent resection of metachronous BTCs following primary BTC resection with negative bile duct margins were enrolled. Among the 12 metachronous tumors, six exhibited anterograde growth in the lower portion and six exhibited retrograde growth in the upper portion of the biliary tree. Surgical resection of metachronous BTCs resulted in recurrence-free survival in seven, local recurrence in five, and death in two patients. Nine achieved 5-year overall survival after primary surgery. Molecular analyses revealed that recurrently altered genes were: TP53, SMAD4, CDKN2A, ELF3, ARID1A, GNAS, NF1, STK11, RNF43, KMT2D and ERBB3. Each of these was altered in at least three cases. A comparison of the molecular features between 12 paired primary and metachronous BTCs indicated that 10 (83%) metachronous tumors developed in clonal association with corresponding primary tumors either successionally or phylogenically. The remaining two (17%) developed distinctly. The successional tumors consisted of direct or evolved primary tumor clones that spread along the bile duct. The phylogenic tumors consisted of genetically unstable clones and conferred a poor prognosis. Metachronous tumors distinct from their primaries harbored fewer mutations than successional and phylogenic tumors. In conclusion, over 80% of metachronous BTCs that develop following primary BTC resection are probably molecularly associated with their primaries in either a successional or a phylogenetic manner. Comparison between the molecular features of a metachronous tumor and those of a preceding tumor may provide effective therapeutic clues for the treatment of metachronous BTC. © 2024 The Authors.

Intraductal papillary neoplasm of the bile duct with metachronous development in the downstream bile duct after radical resection. Clin J Gastroenterol 2024; 17:155-163.

Abstract
We report a case of intraductal papillary neoplasms of the bile duct (IPNB) that metachronously developed twice in the downstream bile duct after radical resection. The first lesion was located in the left intrahepatic bile duct, the second lesion in the perihilar bile duct, and the third lesion in the distal bile duct. All lesions were IPNBs with associated invasive carcinoma (pancreatobiliary type). The depth of invasion was to the Glisson's capsule in the first lesion, to the subserosa in the second lesion, and to the fibromuscular layer in the third lesion, without lympho-vascular/perineural invasion and lymph-node metastasis. These were resected radically and had no biliary intraepithelial neoplasia and hyperplasia in the surrounding mucosa. In immunohistochemical examination, each lesion showed a different pattern. Although the downstream occurrence suggests intrabiliary dissemination, the mechanism of these metachronous developments may be multicentric. A literature review revealed that most metachronous cholangiocarcinomas have a grossly papillary appearance and tend to arise downstream. Our findings suggest that IPNB may develop metachronously in the residual bile duct after radical surgery, which may assist in early detection.

Time to Recurrence After Surgical Resection and Survival After Recurrence Among Patients with Perihilar and Distal Cholangiocarcinomas. Ann Surg Oncol 2020; 27:4171-4180. [PMID: 32363510 DOI: 10.1245/s10434-020-08534-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/15/2019] [Indexed: 01/01/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The differences between perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (PHCC) and distal cholangiocarcinoma (DCC) regarding recurrence and the factors that affect recurrence after surgery are unclear. This study aims to investigate the differences in recurrence patterns between patients with PHCC and those with DCC after surgical resection with curative intent. It also investigates the risk factors associated with recurrence and survival thereafter. PATIENTS AND METHODS The postoperative courses of 366 patients with extrahepatic cholangiocarcinomas (EHCCs), including 236 with PHCC and 130 with DCC, who underwent surgical resections were investigated retrospectively. RESULTS During follow-up, tumors recurred in 143 (60.6%) patients with PHCC and in 72 (55.4%) patients with DCC. Overall survival (OS) after surgery, recurrence-free survival (RFS), and OS after recurrence were similar for the patients with PHCC and those with DCC. The cumulative probability of recurrence declined 3 years after surgery in the patients with PHCC and those with DCC. A multivariable analysis determined that, among the patients with PHCC and those with DCC, regional lymph node metastasis was a significant risk factor associated with RFS. Ten patients with PHCC and eight patients with DCC with two or fewer sites of recurrence in a single organ underwent resections. A multivariable analysis determined that recurrent tumor resection was an independent prognostic factor associated with OS after recurrence in the patients with PHCC and those with DCC. CONCLUSIONS Postoperative survival did not differ between the patients with PHCC and those with DCC. Frequent surveillances for recurrence are needed for 3 years after surgical resection of EHCCs. In selected patients, surgery for recurrent EHCCs might be associated with improved outcomes.

Recurrence after curative-intent resection of perihilar cholangiocarcinoma: analysis of a large cohort with a close postoperative follow-up approach. Surgery 2018; 163:732-738. [PMID: 29336813 DOI: 10.1016/j.surg.2017.08.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 81] [Impact Index Per Article: 13.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/22/2017] [Revised: 08/18/2017] [Accepted: 08/30/2017] [Indexed: 01/04/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Although several studies have been conducted on the patterns of recurrence in resected perihilar cholangiocarcinoma, they have many limitations. The aim of this study was to investigate recurrence after resection and to evaluate prognostic factors on the time to recurrence and recurrence-free survival. METHODS Consecutive patients who underwent curative-intent resection of perihilar cholangiocarcinoma between 2001 and 2012 were reviewed retrospectively. The Cox proportional hazards model was used for multivariable analysis. RESULTS In the study period, 402 patients underwent resection of perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (R0, n = 340; R1, n = 62). Radial margin positivity (n = 43, 69%) was the most common reason for R1 resection. The median follow-up of survivors was 7.4 years. The cumulative recurrence probability was higher in R1 than in R0 resection (86% vs 57% at 5 years, P < .001). Seventeen R0 patients had a recurrence over 5 years after resection. There was no difference in median survival time after recurrence between R0 and R1 resection (10 vs 7 months). The proportion of isolated locoregional recurrence was higher in R1 than in R0 resection (37% vs 16%, P < .001), whereas the proportion of distant recurrence was similar. In R0 resection, the independent prognostic factors for time to recurrence and recurrence-free survival were microscopic venous invasion and lymph node metastasis. CONCLUSION More than half of patients with perihilar cholangiocarcinoma experience recurrence after R0 resection. These recurrences occur frequently within 5 years but occasionally after 5 years, which emphasizes the need for close and long-term surveillance. Adjuvant strategies should be considered, especially for patients with nodal metastasis or venous invasion even after R0 resection.
