RFA was used as an adjunct to resection in patients with greater disease burden. Despite this, RFA was not significantly associated with a higher risk of local failure and was not associated with worse survival, when compared with liver resection alone.
IPNB/ICPN are rare precursor lesions that can affect the entire biliary epithelium. At pathology, the majority of patients have invasive carcinoma, thus warranting a radical resection. Patients with tumours expressing MUC1 appear to have worse OS and DFSs.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
