Summary
This study is supposed to make liver transplantation available for treatment in well selected patients suffering from non-resectable intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. Donor organ shortage is currently the main problem for organ transplantation world-wide. Thus, the particular indication "non-resectable intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma" is currently excluded in terms of transplantation. Given those circumstances, transplantation via living donation might be the best option. This procedure does not reduce the deceased donor organ supply because living donation is the primary treatment option in these patients (not subsidiary).
