What is Cholangiocarcinoma?
- It is a cancer of the bile ducts.
- There are three different types of cholangiocarcinoma (CCA), based on location:
- Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA) found in bile ducts within the liver.
- Extrahepatic or distal cholangiocarcinoma (dCCA) found in the part of the bile ducts outside the liver.
- Perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (pCCA) or Klatskin’s tumor where the right and left bile ducts join.
