Combined HCC-MFCCC

June 5, 2017 updated by: Prof. Guido Torzilli, University of Milan

Survival After Hepatectomy for Combined Hepatocellular Cholagiocarcinoma

Combined hepatocellular and mass-forming cholangiocarcinoma (cHCC-MFCCC) is a rare tumor. The aim of this study was the analysis of the outcome comparing such tumor with classic hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and mass-forming cholangiocarcinoma (MFCCC).

Study Overview

Detailed Description

The institutional prospectively maintained database was queried, and 20 patients with cHCC-MFCCC were identified. A 2:1 match was performed with 40 patients operated in the same period for HCC, and with 40 operated for MFCCC. Only T1 or T2 patients N0 M0 were considered. Primary endpoint was the overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS).
