Abstract: Objective To systematically review the risks and effectiveness of combined caudate lobectomy in Klatskin tumor.Methods A systematic literature search was conducted on PubMed,Embase,Cochrane Library,Scopus,CNKI databases and Chinese Bio Medical Literature (CBM).A systematic review and meta-analysis of the current literatures were conducted based on the PRISMA guideline.Odds ratios were calculated using the Mantel-Haenszel method.The primary outcome variables included safety,effectiveness of combined caudate lobectomy and its impact on long-term survival.Results Nine out of 312 articles were included.Results showed caudate lobectomy did not increase the incidence of postoperative complications (OR ＝ 1.15；95 ％ CI 0.74-1.81；P ＞ 0.05),but improved R0 resection rate (OR ＝ 4.81；95 ％ CI 2.72 ～ 8.53；P ＜ 0.01) and long-term survival in these patients (OR ＝ 0.20；95％ CI 0.11 ～ 0.39；P ＜0.01).Conclusion Combined caudate lobe resection is a safe and effective treatment for Klatskin tumor.
