[Clinico-pathological factors and prognosis scale for portal cholangiocarcinoma]. / Kliniko-patologicheskie faktory i shkala prognoza pri vorotnoi kholangiokartsinome.

INTRODUCTION: The objective of this study was to derive a prognostic scale to predict overall survival (OS) after a curative resection of perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (PHC). MATERIAL AND METHODS: The data of 55 patients with portal cholangiocarcinoma were analysed. Patients were treated at the A.V. Vishnevsky Institute of Surgery from 2011 to 2015. Surgical treatment after biliary decompression was performed in 37 (67.3%) patients. In the long-term period we observed 36 (97.3%) of the operated patients. The dependence of the OS of clinical and pathological factors of the tumor was analysed using mono- and multifactor regression analysis of Cox proportional hazards models for all operated patients. RESULTS: Total 1-3-, 5-year survival rate was 75.1, 60.5, 37.7, 35% respectively. Significant prognostic factors (monofactorial analysis) include perineural (p=0,05) and vascular invasion (p=0,049), R1 resection (p=0,01), disease stage III or higher (p=0,03), invasion of SI liver (p=0,004), tumor cells differentiation degree (grade) 2 and higher (p=0,0006). Multifactor analysis revealed that the low OS have determined by perineural (p=0,05) and vascular invasion (p=0,008), the degree of differentiation of tumor cells (p=0,001), disease stage (p=0,05), surgical resection margin (p=0.0345). Developed method of predicting OS is a score of prognostic factors. CONCLUSION: The scale of individual prognosis in patients PHC takes into account both clinical and histopathological tumor characteristics. This scale may be useful to optimize the individual treatment.

[View on the problem of Klatskin tumor].

Klatskin tumor arises from the common hepatic duct and its bifurcation the bile ducts and is the most common primary malignancy of the biliary tree. the location of the tumor and its close relationship with vascular structures at the hepatic hilum have resulted in a low resectability and high morbidity and mortality. Improvement of instrumental diagnostics and operative techniques allows to perform extended resection and complex interventions on the liver, bile ducts and vascular structures at the hepatic hilum. The role of chemoratiotherapy and photodynamic therapy is not fully understood. thus, questions of treatment and prognosis of the disease are remain relevant and require further study.
