Cholangiocarcinoma (Klatskin tumor)

Cholangiocarcinoma, also known as Klatskin tumor, is a type of cancer that originates in the bile ducts, which are the tubes that carry bile from the liver to the small intestine. It is a rare but aggressive cancer that can be difficult to diagnose and treat.
Symptoms of cholangiocarcinoma can include jaundice, abdominal pain, weight loss, itching, and fever.

Diagnosis of cholangiocarcinoma (Klatskin tumor)

The diagnosis of Klatskin tumor, typically involves a combination of imaging tests and biopsy.
Imaging tests such as computed tomography (CT) scan, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and ultrasound are commonly used to visualize the bile ducts and any abnormalities. These tests can also help determine the size, location, and extent of the tumor.
If imaging tests suggest the presence of cancer, a biopsy may be performed to confirm the diagnosis. This involves removing a small tissue sample from the tumor, which is then analyzed under a microscope for the presence of cancerous cells.
Other tests, such as blood tests and liver function tests, may also be used to help diagnose cholangiocarcinoma and assess the function of the liver.

Treatment of cholangiocarcinoma (Klatskin tumor)

Treatment of cholangiocarcinoma depends on the stage of the cancer, the location and size of the tumor, and the overall health of the patient. Options may include surgery to remove the tumor, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, or a combination of these treatments.
