Abstract

Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is the second most common aggressive and chemotherapy-refractory liver malignancy. Over the past decade, it has become a significant global concern due to its increasing diagnostic incidence and accompanying mortality rates. The majority of patients have already reached advanced-stage disease at the time of diagnosis and only a few patients are suitable for curative hepatic resection. Moreover, the recurrence rate after surgical resection remains high, only 5% of patients survive beyond 5 years, and the prognosis is extremely poor for patients with unresectable ICC due to the lack of available treatment options.
