Background: Hepatolithiasis is a well‐known etiology of cholangiocarcinoma. However, whether or not hepatolithiasis influences the presentation of cholangiocarcinoma is not very clear. To help clarify this, we conducted the present study to investigate the clinicopathological characteristics of cholangiocarcinoma with hepatolithiasis. As well, we made a comparison between the presence and absence of hepatolithiasis in patients with cholangiocarcinoma to determine the impact of hepatolithiasis.

Subsequent CCA developed in 2% of the patients with hepatic resection for benign BDS until 10 years and was associated with poorer prognoses than concomitant CCA, and future studies focused on the long-term surveillance for CCA in such patients are needed.

Patients who underwent aggressive hepatectomy and had ELR = SAS had better outcomes than those with ELR-<-SAS, however, patients withELR <–SAS and bilateral intrahepatic or residual stones should be monitored more carefully for high-risk factors of S-CCA.

The authors' observations suggest that whenever intrahepatic stones are encountered in patients over 50 years of age with a long history of recurrent cholangitis and intractable pain, further examination incuding echo-guided aspiration cytology, liver scanning, and peritoneoscopy should be performed to rule out a coexisting Cholangiocarcinoma.

Five cases of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma were found among 101 cases of hepatolithiasis, and an intraoperative frozen‐section examination should be considered under the following circumstances: whitish nodular mass over liver, mucinous substance within bile duct, and enlarged, firm lymph nodes clustered along the hepatic arteries and/or celiac arteries.

The presence of hepatolithiasis hindered an exact diagnosis of underlying cholangiocarcinoma preoperatively, precipitated biliary sepsis which affected resectability, and increased postoperative morbidity, and Hepatolithiasis per se did not influence the long-term survival.

Patients with hepatolithiasis should be kept in mind if there are high levels of CEA, if the location of the stones is classified as type I-L, or if portal veins cannot be seen on portograms, and liver resection should be considered because there may be undiagnosed cholangiocarcinoma.
