BACKGROUND: Hepatopancreatoduodenectomy has been performed to achieve radical resection in malignant biliary tumors. We reviewed clinical outcomes to evaluate the clinical feasibility of hepatopancreatoduodenectomy for the treatment of gallbladder and bile duct cancer. METHODS: Twenty-three patients underwent hepatopancreatoduodenectomy from 1995 to 2007; 10 gallbladder cancer and 13 bile duct cancer. Median follow-up periods were 15.0 months. RESULTS: R0 resection was performed in 17 of 23 patients (73.9%). Morbidity and mortality rates were 91.3% and 13.0%, respectively. Five-year survival rates were 10.0% for gallbladder cancer and 32.3% for bile duct cancer. Survival more than 3 years was possible for most patients with stage IIA or less, whereas all gallbladder cancer patients with stage III and all bile duct cancer with stage IIB or more died within 2 years. Bile duct cancer patients with pN0 survived longer than those with pN1 (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: To obtain negative proximal and distal ductal resection margins in the biliary tract cancer, R0 resection and long-term survival can be achieved by hepatopancreatoduodenectomy. However, its adoption in patients with lymph node metastasis or adjacent organ invasion cannot be recommended.
