Molecular and Pathological Heterogeneity of Synchronous Small and Large Duct Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma—A Case Series

Synchronous small- and large-duct iCCA demonstrates distinct molecular, histopathological, and clinical features, necessitating individualized treatment strategies. Targeted therapies for <i>IDH1/2</i>- and <i>FGFR2</i>-altered small-duct iCCA have shown efficacy, whereas large-duct iCCA remains more aggressive and treatment-resistant, requiring novel therapeutic approaches. Future research should focus on adaptive treatment strategies that account for tumor heterogeneity and dominant molecular drivers.

Abstract

Synchronous small- and large-duct iCCA demonstrates distinct molecular, histopathological, and clinical features, necessitating individualized treatment strategies. Targeted therapies for <i>IDH1/2</i>- and <i>FGFR2</i>-altered small-duct iCCA have shown efficacy, whereas large-duct iCCA remains more aggressive and treatment-resistant, requiring novel therapeutic approaches. Future research should focus on adaptive treatment strategies that account for tumor heterogeneity and dominant molecular drivers.
