Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma arising in chronic advanced liver disease and the cholangiocarcinomatous component of hepatocellular cholangiocarcinoma share common phenotypes and cholangiocarcinogenesis.

Abstract excerpt

AIMS: Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinomas (ICCs) are known to arise in cases of non-biliary, chronic advanced liver disease (CALD), but their clinicopathological features remain unexplored.
