However, small, solitary, peripheral-type ICC rarely have lymph node metastasis (LNM). The aim of the current study is to examine the usefulness of LLR for ICC and determine whether our criteria for applying LLR without LND to small, solitary, peripheral-type ICC was appropriate.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      We retrospectively selected 78 patients that underwent liver resections for ICC at Osaka University Hospital between 2003 and 2020.
