Being a CC survivor due to a transplant I am not sure if that article was a positive thing??
I guess I will just have to keep proving it is!!
Lots of prayers-CathyAn article by Mayo Clinic doctors.
The impact of neoadjuvant chemoradiation on the tumor burden prior to liver transplantation in unresectable cholangiocarcinoma
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22140024Eyebrow-raising quote:

IOW, waiting longer between chemoradiation and LT might be better.
