Abstract
Cholangiocarcinoma is a hepatobiliary malignancy which can manifest anywhere along the biliary tree. Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma occurs in the liver within or beyond the second order bile ducts. The prognosis for patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma is poor, even when successfully resected there is a very high rate of local recurrence. The available systemic therapies are currently limited and have high rates of toxicity. Percutaneous and transarterial liver-directed therapies can be used to treat intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma with results comparable to current standard of care systemic therapies in some circumstances. This manuscript will review these the techniques and efficacy of percutaneous and transarterial liver-directed therapies for intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.
