Case 3
September 2011
Indeed, the patient underwent neoadjuvant chemo-irradiation and liver transplantation for potential cure of cholangiocarcinoma. He underwent live donor transplantation in 2007. The explanted liver demonstrates stage 2 PSC with multifocal high and low grade dysplasia, but no residual invasive cancer. His chances of long-term survival are excellent.
