Abstract
Background and objectives: The objective of this study was to investigate the benefits of adjuvant treatment for patients with resected perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (PHC).
Methods: Between 2001 and 2017, 196 patients with PHC adenocarcinoma underwent curative resection. The patients were divided into four groups according to adjuvant treatment type: surgery alone (S; N = 90), surgery with chemotherapy (S+CTx; N = 67), surgery with radiotherapy (S+RTx; N = 18), and surgery with chemoradiotherapy (S+ CRTx; N = 21).
Results: The median follow-up duration of the surviving patients was 58 months. The 5-year rate of overall survival (OS) was 32%. In multivariate analysis, receiving S+CTx and S+CRTx were significant prognostic factors for OS. In subgroup analyses of the R1 resection patients, the S+CRTx group showed better OS than the S group (p < 0.05). In subgroup analyses of the stage III-IVA patients with a negative resection margin, the S+CTx and S+CRTx groups showed superior OS than the S group (p < 0.05).
Conclusions: Our data suggest that adjuvant chemoradiotherapy might be considered for PHC patients with R1 resection. Adjuvant chemotherapy or chemoradiotherapy is suggested for stage III-IVA patients with R0 resection. The results of this study require validation through further prospective studies.

근위부 간외담도암에서 수술 후 보조치료로서 방사선치료와 항암치료의 효과를 후향적으로 분석한 논문으로, R1 절제에서는 항암화학방사선치료가, R0 절제가 된 III-IVA 병기에서는 항암화학요법 혹은 항암화학방사선치료를 추가하는 것이 수술 단독에 비해 우월한 생존율을 보여주었다.
