Correlation analysis of CA19-9/Glutamyltransferase ratio and long-term survival for patients with distal cholangiocarcinoma under different bilirubin levels

•CA19-9 has been confirmed to be significantly correlated with the prognosis of distal cholangiocarcinoma. However, CA19-9 is easily affected by biliary obstruction indicators. We confirmed that CA19-9 was not the independent risk factor for prognosis.•We first analyze the correlation between CA19-9...

Description
Summary:•CA19-9 has been confirmed to be significantly correlated with the prognosis of distal cholangiocarcinoma. However, CA19-9 is easily affected by biliary obstruction indicators. We confirmed that CA19-9 was not the independent risk factor for prognosis.•We first analyze the correlation between CA19-9/GGT and survival in distal cholangiocarcinoma patients.•We first confirm CA19-9/GGT is more valuable in judging the long-term survival of distal cholangiocarcinoma, especially for patients with high preoperative bilirubin level.
