ABSTRACT
BACKGROUNDS/AIMS:
Combined hepatocellular carcinoma and cholangiocarcinoma (cHCC-CC) is an uncommon subtype of primary liver cancer that has rarely been reported in detail. This study was performed in order to evaluate the clinicopathological characteristics and prognostic factors of cHCC-CC in single center.METHODS:
The clinicopathological features of patients diagnosed and operated with cHCC-CC at Chonbuk National Hospital between July 1998 and July 2007 were retrospectively studied by comparing them with patients with only hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who had undergone a hepatic resection during the same period.RESULTS:
Ten out of 152 patients who had undergone a hepatic resection were diagnosed with cHCC-CC and thus included in this study (M F=8 2, median age 52+/-11.1 years). According to the parameters of the 7th American Joint Committee on Cancer T staging, there were 76 (50.0%), 44 (28.9%), 9 (5.9%), 18 (11.8%) and 5 (3.3%) patients with T stages 1, 2, 3a, 3b and 4, respectively. The overall survival period was longer in the HCC only group (68+/-40.4 months) than in the combined cHCC-CC group (23+/-40.1 months) (p<0.0001). The 5-year survival rate was 10% in the cHCC-CC group and 60% in the HCC group (p<0.0001). The disease free survival for patients with cHCC-HCC and HCC were 16+/-37.4 and 51+/-44.3 months, respectively (p<0.0001). Univariate analysis revealed that age, gender, transarterial chemoembolization (TACE), and T stage were statistically significant in terms of patient's overall survival. However, there were no significant clinicopathological factors identified by the multivariate analysis.CONCLUSIONS:
Even after the hepatic resection in the HCC, the prognosis is poorer if the patient has cholangiocellular components compared to the usual HCC.
