Hi,
Unlike the last time about the Mayo liver transplant paper that I ordered the pre-print copy, this time I will not and therefore I did not have the chance to read the entire article.
My “false hope” statement is purely guy feeling and not evidence- based.
I simply use common sense and my biology and disease understanding about CCA to make that assumption .” CURE” is not the word I will use for this disease at this point .
God bless.Percy-what exactly is the “false hope” I could only read the intro page and it seemed to say what we all know that transplant with chemo and radiation, if a possibility is our best chance to be considerd cure. I am curious what it said.
Thanks-CathyHi,
It sounds too good to be true. I believe the title of the article gives false hope to people who seek them; But the researchers who compiled the info. are from UCSF. you will be the judge.
God bless.I also tried to read it, and it ended right when it was going to tell me my chances!!! LOL! I guess I will just leave it to God!!
Lots of prayers for our CC family-CathyLiz, you work in a hospital if I remember correctly. Chances are your hospital has an institutional subscription to access the articles behind the paywall.
Can we cure cholangiocarcinoma with neoadjuvant chemoradiation and liver transplantation? Time for a multicenter trial.
