2.1.4.7 Bile Duct Cancer Bile duct cancer has very poor prognosis thus, finding diagnostic and prognostic markers will be an advantage (see Table 2). Park et al. [48] evaluated the hypermethylation status of genes for the power to predict overall survival following curative resection of mid/di...
Bile duct cancers are frequently diagnosed as advanced diseases. Over half of patients with advanced bile duct cancer present with unresectable malignancies and their prognosis has been very poor even after curative resections. Although there has been a need to diagnose bile duct cancer at its early...
Physical examination, specialized blood tests, and imaging tests may be used to diagnose bile duct cancer. Treatment for bile duct cancer may include chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and photodynamic therapy. Bile duct cancer typically has a poor prognosis. Preventing liver damage may decrease the ...
This manuscript is organized to emphasize the need for convening an international consensus to develop the concept of early bile duct cancer. 展开 关键词: Early bile duct cancer Prognosis Histopathology DOI: 10.1186/1471-230X-7-27 被引量: 36 ...

6–8 Solid and cystic (or cystadenocarcinoma) bile duct carcinomas have been reported but this distinction does not influence either treatment or prognosis.12 Bile duct carcinoma of the gallbladder is rare in both species.2,5–8,12,13 Bile duct carcinomas have an aggressive biologic behavior....
“Unfortunately, bile duct cancer today has a poor prognosis for patients,” commented Dr. Novelli in the RenovoRx’s press release. “Despite early diagnosis, the 5-year survival rate is approximately 24%. There are currently limited treatment options for patients diagnosed with this aggressive...
Thirteen patients with bile duct cancer (excluding gallbladder) and associated chronic ulcerative colitis (CUC) were seen at the Mayo Clinic from 1935 through 1973. Most patients had initial symptoms of severe diarrhea and bleeding, followed by a pattern of mild-to-moderate disease with exacerbation...
Improvement in the survival of patients with cancer of the bile duct probably depends on development of better adjuvant therapy, such as new techniques of radiation therapy and new modalities of chemotherapy, in association with surgery or with a percutaneous or endoscopic intubation technique. 展开 ...
Infigratinib was approved for use in adults with previously treated unresectable bile duct cancer harboring an FGFR2 fusion or other rearrangement.
