Abstract

Objective To analyze the clinical data of patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma (HCCA), and to compare the therapeutic effects of different methods on treating these patients. Methods The clinical data of 101 patients with HCCA in China-Japan Union Hospital of Jilin University were analyzed. Results The overall 1-year and 2-year survival rates in the radical operation group were 95.5% and 40.9%, respectively. There was a significant difference between the radical operation group and the palliative resection group (P 0.05). Conclusions Radical HCCA resection is still the best and the first choice treatment for patients with HCCA. The therapeutic effects of radical operation were much better than those of palliative resection, biliary stent, PTCD and open abdominal biliary drainage.
