REGIONAL LYMPHADENECTOMY VS. EXTENDED LYMPHADENECTOMY FOR HILAR CHOLANGIOCARCINOMA (RELAY-HC TRIAL): STUDY PROTOCOL FOR A PROSPECTIVE, MULTICENTER, RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED TRIAL

Regional lymphadenectomy vs. extended lymphadenectomy for hilar cholangiocarcinoma (Relay-HC trial): study protocol for a prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled trial

Abstract Background The prognostic benefits and safety of extended lymphadenectomy for hilar cholangiocarcinoma remain uncertain.The available evidence is still insufficient concerning its retrospective aspect.The aim of this study is to explore the clinical effect and safety of extended lymphadenectomy compared to regional lymphadenectomy in patie
