[Sclerosing adenocarcinomas of the hepatic hilum].
The authors report their series of 7 adenocarcinomas of the hepatic hilum. Five patients with a stage IV tumor underwent palliative surgery while the remaining 2 patients underwent radical surgery. One patient died and 3 reported postoperative complications. Overall survival was 2 years and 6 months: these results can be considered satisfactory taking into account the advanced stage and the bad prognosis of this type of tumor. The aim of a better quality of life may represent a reasonable indication to surgery.
