Abstract
|
|
|
Rhabdoid transformation is an extremely rare occurrence in sarcomatoid cholangiocarcinoma. Only two cases have been reported in the medical literature worldwide, and its clinical and pathological characteristics remain unknown. Published case reports indicate that rhabdoid cholangiocarcinoma grows rapidly, with early metastasis and a particularly poor prognosis. Here, we report a case of rhabdoid transformation in sarcomatoid cholangiocarcinoma that exhibited aggressive behavior and resulted in a devastating prognosis.
