Clinical Information A malignant tumor involving the extrahepatic bile duct. A primary or metastatic malignant neoplasm that affects the extrahepatic bile ducts. Representative examples include carcinoma and sarcoma.
Extrahepatic bile ducts are small tubes that carry bile outside of the liver. They are made up of the common hepatic duct (hilum region) and the common bile duct (distal region). Bile is made in the liver and flows through the common hepatic duct and the cystic duct to the gallbladder, where it is stored.
Extrahepatic means "outside the liver," so this type of cancer refers to cancer that begins in the bile duct outside your liver.
The extrahepatic bile ducts are outside the liver. The extrahepatic ducts include the part of the right and left hepatic ducts that are outside the liver, the common hepatic duct and the common bile duct. (The cystic duct is also outside the liver, but cancers of the cystic duct are grouped with gallbladder cancers.)
Malignant neoplasm of extrahepatic bile duct C24. 0 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM C24. 0 became effective on October 1, 2021.
(EK-struh-heh-PA-tik) Located or occurring outside the liver.
Definition of extrahepatic : situated or originating outside the liver.
Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma is found inside the liver. Extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma is found outside the liver. Also called bile duct cancer.
Extrahepatic bile duct obstruction (EHBDO) is defined as the lack of bile transit into the duodenum due to blockage along the common bile duct (CBD) or at its junction with the duodenum.
The origin and identification of the feeding vessel that supplies the lesion. If this abnormal vessel arises from the hepatic artery, the mass is usually intrahepatic. If fed by other arteries which arise from the celiac trunk, such as the inferior phrenic artery, the mass is usually extrahepatic.
Cholangiocarcinoma – Bile Duct Cancer (ICD-10: C22)
Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma occurs in the parts of the bile ducts within the liver and is sometimes classified as a type of liver cancer. Hilar cholangiocarcinoma occurs in the bile ducts just outside of the liver. This type is also called perihilar cholangiocarcinoma.
Hilar cholangiocarcinoma is a type of bile duct cancer that occurs in the bile ducts that lead out of the liver (hepatic ducts) and join with the gallbladder. Hilar cholangiocarcinomas are also known as Klatskin tumors.
