Selection criteria for minimally invasive resection of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma-a word of caution: a propensity score matched analysis using the national cancer database

Omid Salehi et al.

Summary: MILR, compared to OLR, showed advantages in terms of unplanned readmission, positive margin rates, and shorter hospital stay, but had worse lymph node yield and overall survival for intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma patients requiring major hepatectomy. Subsequent careful decision-making is required for the selection of MILR in these cases.

Laparoscopic Versus Open Surgery for Early-Stage Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma After Mastering the Learning Curve: A Multicenter Data-Based Matched Study

Yang Jinhuan et al.

Summary: This study compared the efficacy of laparoscopic liver resection and open surgery for intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC). The results showed that laparoscopic surgery had better short-term outcomes, including less blood loss, shorter operation duration, and shorter hospital stay, compared to open surgery. For early-stage ICC, laparoscopic treatment may have certain advantages in terms of long-term outcomes.

Lymphadenectomy and margin-negative resection for biliary tract cancer surgery in the United States-Differential technical performance by approach

Bradford J. Kim et al.

Summary: This study found that the rate of lymphadenectomy for biliary tract tumors is low nationwide, regardless of the surgical approach, especially with laparoscopic surgery. As the use of minimally invasive surgery continues to increase in the treatment of biliary tract cancers, scrutiny of oncologic outcomes is required.

Laparoscopic versus open liver resection for intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma: Report of an international multicenter cohort study with propensity score matching

Raffaele Brustia et al.

Summary: This study compared the overall survival of patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma who underwent open or laparoscopic liver resection. The results showed that laparoscopic liver resection was associated with better overall survival compared to open liver resection. Severe postoperative complications and steatosis were identified as predictors of death, while transfusion and severe postoperative complications were predictors of recurrence.

Laparoscopic liver resection reduces postoperative infection in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma: a propensity score-based analysis

Daisuke Shirai et al.

Summary: This study compares the occurrence of postoperative infections between patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) undergoing laparoscopic liver resection (LLR) and those undergoing open liver resection (OLR). The results show that LLR is associated with a lower volume of intraoperative blood loss and reduced risk of postoperative infection.

Summary: In elderly patients with HCC, LLR was associated with better surgical outcomes than OLR, but there was no significant difference in oncological outcomes.

Is laparoscopic liver resection safe for intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma? A meta-analysis

Parbatraj Regmi et al.

Summary: Comparing laparoscopic liver resection (LLR) and open liver resection (OLR) for intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC), LLR showed advantages in terms of blood transfusion, resection rate, length of stay, overall morbidities, and death due to tumor recurrence compared to OLR. However, LLR was associated with smaller tumor size, fewer major hepatectomies, lower lymph node dissection rate, and inferior 5-year overall survival.

Meta-analysis of laparoscopic versus open liver resection for intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma

Nikolaos Machairas et al.

Summary: The study found that compared to open liver resection, laparoscopic surgery in the treatment of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma results in smaller tumors, less extensive resections, higher R0 resection rates, less blood loss, lower transfusion requirements, decreased overall morbidity, and shorter hospital stays. However, there were no significant differences between the two groups in terms of operative time, major complications, mortality, and long-term survival rates.

Laparoscopic versus open hepatectomy for intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma: An individual patient data survival meta-analysis

Ioannis A. Ziogas et al.

Summary: In comparing laparoscopic hepatectomy and open hepatectomy for intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, laparoscopic approach showed better outcomes in terms of postoperative complications and recurrence-free rate. There were no significant differences in overall survival and recurrence-free survival between laparoscopic and open hepatectomy in some clinical data.

Current status of radical laparoscopy for treating hepatocellular carcinoma with portal hypertension

Ze-Feng Shen et al.

Summary: Laparoscopic technique is effective in treating hepatocellular carcinoma with portal hypertension. Both short- and long-term prognosis of HCC patients after laparoscopic liver resection show no statistical difference, regardless of whether they suffer from PHT. Laparoscopic treatment has superior short- and long-term prognostic outcomes compared to non-laparoscopic treatment, and offers long-term prognostic advantage compared to laparoscopic radiofrequency ablation.
