Identification of Dysregulation of Iron Metabolism and Post-translational Modifications via Bile in Cholangiocarcinoma

Abstract

In this case of an inoperable patient with hilar cholangiocarcinoma, a successful curative resection was performed by implementing PTPE in combination with chemotherapy while waiting for sufficient recovery of liver function. Although it took approximately one year until the operation could be performed, this result was achieved by continuing the treatment without giving up.
