Abstract:
Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma is a highly invasive malignant tumor, and at present, surgical resection is the only effective way for cure. Lymph node metastasis makes it difficult to accurately judge the extent of radical resection, and no international consensus has been reached on the need for routine lymph node dissection and the extent of lymph node dissection. This article summarizes and analyzes the disputes and problems in preventive lymph node dissection for patients without lymph node metastasis before surgery, hoping to provide a reference for radical resection of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.
