Radiological diagnosis and staging of hilar cholangiocarcinoma

Figure 8 Endobiliary metastases. Sixty eight-year-old patient with obstructive jaundice. The patient had been operated on for liver metastases of colorectal cancer 3 years ago (right hepatectomy). A, B: Portal phase computed tomography shows left intrahepatic biliary dilatation (arrowheads) and a solid slightly hyperenhancing endoluminal mass in the left hepatic duct; C: Coronal reconstruction shows to a better advantage the fluid density of dilated bile ducts and the solid density of the endobiliary tumor (arrows). Percutaneous fine-needle aspiration biopsy confirmed endobiliary metastasis.
