    Thank you for posting a link to this article, Gavin. This was a hot topic of discussion this past week at the AHPBA convention in Miami.

    Hi, Gavin,
    It make sense, during the recent trip to Mayo for RFA, the liver surgeon said one thing to me, do not worry too much about the mets to the celiac trunk it is small;
    the most important thing to prolong your life is take cake of your liver first at this point, keep it functional as normal as possible.

    So I agree there is a need to change the staging system to like T1N1M1 is different than T4N1M1 instead of all lump into T4N1M1 one category.

    Thanks Gavin,be sure to say hi to your mum for me.

    God bless.

    Thanks, Gavin. Staging of Cholangiocarcinoma (not only intrahepatic) is focused on internationally. We should hear more about it within this year.
