Biliary Tract Neoplasms is a state-of-art reference of the multimodality management of bile duct cancer written by leaders in the field. As targeted therapy and clinical trials in this field are exploding, and the incidence of the disease is increasing, now is the time to address the topic in practical manner. This reference addresses surgical approaches to biliary neoplasms, targeted personalized systemic approaches to biliary neoplasms, and other treatment modalities such as radiotherapy and ablation. It is intended for scientists, researchers, clinicians, practicing surgeons, surgical oncologists, transplant surgeons as well as fellows/residents in the surgical space.
