Effect of PVE on Surgical Outcomes and Long-term Survival in Perihilar Cholangiocarcinoma

January 20, 2024 updated by: Sang Hyub Lee, Seoul National University Hospital

Effect of Portal Vein Embolization on Surgical Outcomes and Long-term Survival in Patients With Perihilar Cholangiocarcinoma

Portal vein embolization is often recommended to reduce the risk of postoperative liver failure and mortality. In this retrospective cohort study, researchers investigated the effect of portal vein embolization in patients with resectable perihilar cholangiocarcinoma bismuth type III and IV.
