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.

The book's translational nature and impact of basic science findings that have informed targeted therapy for biliary neoplasms provide the very latest data on surgery, medical, imaging, and multi-modality care of biliary neoplasm to educate and inform care of this patient population.
