Does an oestrogen receptor β-selective agonist exert anti-neoplastic effects in experimental intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma?
KB9520 induced apoptosis in cholangiocarcinoma by selectively acting on oestrogen receptor-β, suggesting that oestrogen receptor-β selective agonists may be a novel and effective therapeutic option for the medical treatment of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.
Microperc technique is safe, feasible, and efficacious. We suggest that micro-percutaneous nephrolithotomy should be considered for the treatment of moderate-sized renal stones as an alternative to SWL and RIRS failures and also may be considered even primarily.
