Background: A histologically involved surgical margin (R1) is often observed after resection for cholangiocarcinoma. Compared with a negative margin (R0), R1 with invasive carcinoma (R1inv) markedly worsens survival, whereas the prognostic effect of R1 with carcinoma in situ (R1cis) remains controversial. Methods: Patients who underwent resection for perihilar cholangiocarcinoma between 2002 and 2019 were retrospectively reviewed. According to the pathological assessment, the duct margin was classified as R0, R1cis, or R1inv; radial margin positivity was treated as R1inv. Recurrence and survival were compared. Results: Among the 681 patients, 457 had R0, 69 had R1cis, and 155 had R1inv. The overall five-year recurrence rate was 82.8 % with R1inv, 67.8 % with R1cis, and 47.6 % with R0 (P < 0.001); the local recurrence rate also significantly differed among these groups (P < 0.001). The five-year survival rate was significantly worse with R1cis than with R0 (37.3 % vs. 56.7 %, P < 0.001) and better than that with R1inv (20.9 %, P = 0.007). Multivariate analysis revealed that R1cis was an independent predictor of survival (hazard ratio, 1.65; P < 0.001). Conclusion: Compared with R0, R1cis significantly deteriorated overall survival in the whole resection subset of patients with perihilar cholangiocarcinoma. However, the prognostic impact of R1cis was milder than that of R1inv.
