Number of examined lymph nodes and overall survival in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma: a population-based study suggesting a staging benefit
The prognostic role of lymph node yield (LNY) in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) remains debated. We aimed to clarify the role of LNY by examining its association with nodal detection and overall survival (OS). We identified patients with surgically resected ICC (2004–2022) from the SEER database. Mult...
