3 Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma Proposed classification #1 Classification based on size of glands Large duct type (Mucin-ICC) Small duct-type (Mixed-ICC) Cholangiolocellular Located close to hilum Glands typically large Mucin-positive Located at periphery Glands typically small Mucin-negative Ductular reaction-like pattern Komuta, Hepatol 2012 Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma Proposed classification #2 Conventional ICC Unconventional ICC Classification #2 With biliary features Trabecular subtype Hilar subtype With predominant ductal plate malformation Cholangiolocellular Intraductal neoplasia Intraductal papillary neoplasm Intraductal tubulopapillary neoplasm Sempoux, Sem Liv Dis 2011 Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma Molecular alterations and histologic classification Diagnostic challenges 3

4 Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma Diagnostic challenges Well-differentiated BDA vs adenocarcinoma Adenocarcinoma: any differentiation ICC vs metastatic adenocarcinoma Poorly differentiated Hepatocellular carcinoma Well-differentiated Frozen section diagnosis Metastatic adenocarcinoma Benign biliary proliferation: Bile duct adenoma or hamartoma Benign biliary lesions Biliary hamartoma (von Meyenburg complex) Dilated ducts with curvilinear outlines Inspissated bile Bile duct adenoma Compact small to medium sized glands Round to oval contours, not dilated Scant stroma if small, larger lesions can have prominent stroma 4

5 Glands Biliary hamartoma Dilated ducts with curvilinear outlines Bile duct adenoma Compact small to medium sized glands Stroma Can be prominent Scant in small lesions, can be prominent in large lesions Bile or eosinophilic material Often present Absent Growth pattern Stroma Cytologic atypia Bile duct adenoma -Well-demarcated at interface -Grow around portal tracts Typically collagenized in center, can be cellular Mild Architecture Tubular glands, can be angulated Adenocarcinoma -Destructive growth -Portal invasion Desmoplastic Mild to marked Can be complex Mitoses Absent Can be present Bile duct adenoma Challenging features Atypia enhanced by frozen artifact Angulated infiltrative glands Mucin can be present Stroma may simulate desmoplasia Variant histologic features 5

Study Stem Cell Markers Kozaka, 2007 NCAM (CD56): 75% Komuta, 2008 NCAM in 87% CD133, c-kit, OCT4 Moeini, 2017 SALL4: 75% NCAM:100% Rhee, 2018 No difference in stem cell marker staining compared to intrahepatic cholangioca Cholangiolocellular carcinoma 8

16 Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma AJCC 7 th edition T category T1 T2 T3 T4 Definition Solitary tumor without vascular invasion T2a: Solitary with vascular invasion T2b: Multiple tumors Involving visceral peritoneum or direct invasion into extrahepatic structures Tumor with periductal invasion Periductal invasion Intrahepatic CC, macroscopic types Mass forming, periductal, intraductal, mixed Periductal: worse prognosis Extensive intraductal growth: T4 Problems How extensive is 'extensive' Recent studies do not confirm worse outcome Hirohashi, Hepatogastroeterol 2002 Uno, Surg Today, 2012 Periductal growth pattern 16

17 Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, 3 cm, no VI Summary Mutations in IDH1, PBRM1 and BAP1, and FGFR2 fusion can help in distinction of ICC from metastatic adenocarcinoma Mutation in IDH1 and PBRM1, and FGFR2 fusion along with absence of CTNNB1 and TERT promoter mutation helps in distinction from HCC Summary BAP1 loss by IHC Can help in distinction from PDAC and upper GI metastatic adenocarcinoma Can help in distinction from benign biliary lesions 17

18 Summary p53 and Ki-67 IHC Diffuse strong p53 staining supports adenocarcinoma over bile duct adenoma Ki-67 proliferation index >10% is rare in bile duct adenoma Summary HCC vs ICC Diagnosis has strong impact on treatment Sensitive markers like arginase-1 should be used to identify HCC component ICC diagnosis should be based on stric t criteria: discrete glands, mucin+, positive for CK19/CK7, typically negative for hepatocellular markers 18
