Official Title: Development and Validation of a Machine-learning Model to Predict Lymph Node Metastasis of Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma: a Retrospective Cohort Study.
Brief Summary:
The object of this study is to develop a model for prediction of lymph node metastasis among intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) patients.Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma is the second most common kind of primary liver cancer, accounting for approximately 10%-15%.There is a lack of agreement regarding the necessity of performing lymph node dissection (LND) in patients with ICC.Currently, the percentage of LND is below 50%, and the rate of sufficient LND (?6) has plummeted to less than 20%.Consequently, a large…
