Description

Razan Aburumman, Muhammad Saad Faisal, and Sumit Singla review a heat treatment delivered inside bile ducts for cholangiocarcinoma, a cancer that blocks drainage from the liver, in a 2026 article. Most patients cannot have the tumor removed, so easing the blockage is central to care. The technique, endobiliary radiofrequency ablation, burns tumor tissue from within the duct.

Trials and pooled analyses now give a mixed picture: some show longer survival for selected patients, while gains in stent openness and quality of life vary between studies. Safety looks acceptable overall. The review covers technique, side effects, patient selection, and guideline positions, and sketches what evidence would settle the remaining doubts.
