The objective of this study was to investigate the association between pre-operative body mass index (BMI) and surgical infection in perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (pCCA) patients treated with curative resection. Consecutive pCCA patients were enrolled from four tertiary hospitals between 2008 and 2022. According to pre-operative BMI, the patients were divided into three groups: low BMI (≤18.

The objective of this study was to assess the prognostic value of the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) in perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (pCCA) patients following curative resection.
Methods: Consecutive pCCA patients following curative resection at 3 Chinese hospitals between 2014 and 2018 were included.
Article Synopsis
- This study looked at how blood transfusions during surgery (PBT) affect long-term survival in patients with a type of cancer called perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (pCCA).
- They compared patients who received blood transfusions to those who didn't, separating them by different stages of the cancer.
- Results showed that patients with early-stage pCCA who got blood transfusions had worse survival and recovery rates, while there wasn't much difference for those with later stages or all stages combined. *
