Abstract

Cholangiocarcinoma which is often diagnosed late due to non-specific clinical presentation is the most common biliary tract malignancy. In general, accurate staging is crucial to identifying patients with early disease who may be amenable to surgery with curative intent or locally advanced disease for which locoregional treatment approaches may be relevant. Furthermore, accurate diagnosis is crucial to guiding systemic treatment in the adjuvant or palliative setting. Findings on detailed radiological examination with CT and/or MRI could be suggestive of the diagnosis and sufficient for staging, while laparoscopy is at times necessary to exclude intra-abdominal metastases. However, the role of PET requires further evaluation. Invasive techniques such as ERCP, SpyGlass endoscopy and PTC have been found useful for biliary tract evaluation and for therapeutic relief of biliary tract obstruction. These biliary intervention techniques and EUS-FNA have also been found useful for obtaining a confirmatory histological diagnosis. This chapter subsequently discusses the diagnosis and staging of cholangiocarcinoma in some detail with some future perspective.

Abstract

In dryland regions, increased demand for water has led to the reduction of natural aquatic habitats and threatens persisting aquatic habitats. In the Madrean Sky Islands (MSI), water demands have also resulted in the creation of novel aquatic habitats, including stock ponds. Stock ponds are important surrogate habitat for native species, yet little is known about the aquatic invertebrates utilizing these habitats. Additionally, stock ponds support non-native vertebrate predators including American bullfrogs (Lithobates catesbeiana) and Western mosquitofish (Gambusia affinis), and the effects of these predators on invertebrate communities in stock ponds are unknown. We explored similarities in invertebrate communities in stream pools and stock ponds and compared aquatic invertebrate community composition, abundance, and richness in stock ponds with and without non-native predators. We found that despite considerable functional (trait-based) overlap in aquatic invertebrate communities, a large majority (81%) of taxa were exclusive to either stock ponds or stream pools. Additionally, we observed few differences in aquatic invertebrate community composition, abundance, and richness in stock ponds with and without non-native predators. We discuss ecological implications of our observations, limitations of our approach, and the importance of future work in determining the role of stock ponds in conservation of the region’s aquatic invertebrates.
