[A Case of Locally Advanced Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma Successfully Treated by Conversion Surgery after Hepatic Arterial Infusion Chemotherapy and Radiation Therapy].
Gan to Kagaku Ryoho. Cancer & Chemotherapy 2018 April
The patient was a 63-year-old man. Computed tomography(CT)showed a 99mm in diameter low-density mass in hepatic segments 4 and 8 as the main locus. This tumor was diagnosed as intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma and was suspected to invade to left and right Gleason's sheath, and radical cure was judged impossible. After hepatic arterial chemotherapy and radiotherapy were performed, tumor shrinkage was confirmed, and tumor markers also became negative. So he was referred to our hospital for surgical indication. CT revealed that the tumor did not invade to the left Gleason's sheath. After percutaneous transhepatic portal embolization, hepatic right trisectionectomy was performed. He was administered gemcitabine as an adjuvant chemotherapy for 1 year. One year 5 months after surgery, the patient is alive without relapse. Preoperative hepatic arterial chemotherapy and radiotherapy could be an effective treatment for unresectable locally advanced intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.
