Background: In patients with pancreaticobiliary maljunction complicated by congenital biliary dilatation, the pancreatic enzyme flows back into the bile, leading to bile duct carcinogenesis. Although the biliary tract resection and reconstruction is well documented to decrease the rate of malignancy, cancer occurrence has been reported in the residual intrahepatic or intrapancreatic bile duct, even after resection. We report a case of multiple biliary tract cancers in the liver complicated by congenital biliary dilatation, whose tumor lesions were resected en bloc without disconnecting the biliary tract by simultaneous pancreatoduodenectomy and living donor liver transplantation.

Article Synopsis
- Pancreatic cancer is aggressive and often spreads quickly; APS, a traditional Chinese medicine, shows promise in treating various malignant tumors.
- A recent study examined the effectiveness of combining APS with the GS chemotherapy regimen in 97 pancreatic cancer patients, comparing those who received combination therapy to those who solely received GS.
