| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Combined hepatocellular cholangiocarcinomas (CHCs) are divided into classical type (CHC-classical) and subtypes with stem-cell features. The latter is further classified into typical subtype (CHC-SC-typical), intermediate-cell subtype (CHC-SC-int), and cholangiolocellular subtype (CHC-SC-CLC) in the recent WHO classification. In this study, we analyzed a series of CHCs to clarify the clinicopathologic features and KRAS and IDH1/2 mutational status of each subtype. Compared with other CHCs, CHCs-SC-CLC were less frequently associated with chronic viral hepatitis, showed lower levels of serum AFP and DCP, and had higher frequency of IDH1/2 mutations. Compared with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinomas, CHCs-SC-CLC showed lower incidence of vascular invasion and nodal metastasis, lower level of serum CA19-9 and lower frequency of expression of S100P. Our results suggest that CHC-SC-CLC may be a distinct entity among primary liver carcinomas.
