Diagnostic and prognostic nomograms for lymph node metastasis in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is the second most common primary liver cancer. Lymph node metastasis (LNM) is critical to the treatment and prognosis of ICC patients. Nomograms are currently widely used in the diagnosis and prognosis of diseases, which is helpful for clinical decision-makers to conduct personalized evaluations. We aimed to explore the risk and prognostic factors of LNM in ICC patients, and construction and validation of prognostic and diagnostic nomograms of LNM in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma based on the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database. The study extracted clinicopathological information from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program database for patients diagnosed with ICC in 2018. Independent risk factors for LNM in patients
