Cholangiography was highly suggestive of a malignant stricture in all patients. Angiography performed in six patients indicated that the lesions were potentially resectable. Seven patients underwent elective surgery; in six the ductal confluence including the lesion was removed, without mortality. Six patients are alive, five of them totally asymptomatic, in a median follow-up of 32 months. Many patients with hilar strictures are treated for what appears radiologically to be a neoplastic lesion. Since treatment often involves the placement of an endoprosthesis or palliative surgery, without histological diagnosis, some of these patients with benign disease are likely to be treated inappropriately, unless they are considered for a curative resection.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/bjs.1800720826","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2007,3,3]],"date-time":"2007-03-03T05:03:36Z","timestamp":1172898216000},"page":"659-661","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":104,"title":["Malignant masquerade at the hilum of the liver"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"72","author":[{"given":"N S","family":"Hadjis","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Hepatobiliary Unit, Department of Surgery, Royal Postgraduate Medical School, Hammersmith Hospital , Ducane Road, London W12 0HS,","place":["UK"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"N A","family":"Collier","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Hepatobiliary Unit, Department of Surgery, Royal Postgraduate Medical School, Hammersmith Hospital , Ducane Road, London W12 0HS,","place":["UK"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"L H","family":"Blumgart","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Hepatobiliary Unit, Department of Surgery, Royal Postgraduate Medical School, Hammersmith Hospital , Ducane Road, London W12 0HS,","place":["UK"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[1985,8,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"2024092717450380600_bib1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"66","DOI":"10.1016\/S0140-6736(84)90002-3","article-title":"Surgical approaches to cholangiocarcinoma at confluence of hepatic ducts","volume":"i","author":"Blumgart","year":"1984","journal-title":"Lancet"},{"key":"2024092717450380600_bib2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"23","DOI":"10.1097\/00000658-198001000-00005","article-title":"Evaluation of aggressive surgery for carcinoma of the extrahepatic bile ducts","volume":"191","author":"Evander","year":"1980","journal-title":"Ann Surg"},{"key":"2024092717450380600_bib3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"151","DOI":"10.1097\/00000658-197908000-00005","article-title":"Carcinoma of the hepatic hilus.
