Abstract
Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) multilevel heterogeneity may affect the modelling of prognosis, and, indeed, the possibility to define pre- operative survival was limited until recently. Schweitzerl et al1 devel-oped and validated a novel pre- operative clinical prognostic model for patients treated for biliary tract cancers (BTCs) including intrahepatic CCA, extrahepatic CCA and gallbladder cancer (GC). The prognostic score distinguished three groups of patients with a median OS of 21.8, 8.6 and 2.6 months respectively. The prognostic impact of the score was independent of treatment procedures and the tumour site.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
