Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the role of AC in distal cholangiocarcinoma (dCCA), a common tumor subtype of CCA.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Method<\/jats:title><jats:p>Data from 497 patients with dCCA who underwent curative surgery at Seoul National University Hospital between 2000 and 2019 were reviewed using prospectively collected clinicopathologic information.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>The median overall survival (OS) and recurrence\u2010free survival (RFS) in the entire cohort were 62.9 and 44.0\u2009months, respectively. AC was associated with improved five\u2010year OS (58.5% vs. 46.4%; <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.001) and RFS (49.9% vs. 40.7%; <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.005), particularly in patients with advanced T stages (\u2265 T3). Multivariate analysis revealed that AC was an independent positive prognostic factor for survival. Furthermore, adjuvant radiotherapy (RT) alone provides no survival benefit, whereas AC combined with RT (AC\u2009+\u2009RT) offers greater benefits, particularly for patients with positive resection margins.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>AC improved the postoperative survival outcomes of patients with dCCA who underwent curative surgery.
