Obstructive Jaundice in Cholangiocarcinoma
This advanced course explores obstructive jaundice as a major clinical presentation of cholangiocarcinoma, with emphasis on perihilar and distal cholangiocarcinoma. It is designed for medical officers, physicians, surgeons, radiologists, gastroenterology fellows, surgical trainees and oncology teams involved in evaluating patients with progressive jaundice. The course moves from basic recognition of obstructive jaundice to advanced interpretation of clinical, biochemical and radiological findings. It highlights how cholangiocarcinoma can mimic common conditions such as peptic ulcer disease, gallstone disease, hepatitis, pancreatic cancer, drug-induced liver injury and colorectal malignancy. The central teaching point is that cholangiocarcinoma often presents late and subtly. The clinician must recognize the pattern of cholestasis early, define the level of obstruction, assess resectability, prevent complications of prolonged biliary obstruction and refer appropriately.
