[20/03 7:43 AM] Prof. Satyendra ojha sir: CHOLANGIOCARCINOMA (CCC)
CCC typically refers to mucin-producing adenocarcinomas that arise from the bile ducts. They are grouped by their anatomic site of origin as intrahepatic, hilar (central, ~65% of CCCs), and peripheral (or distal, ~30% of CCCs).
They arise on the basis of cirrhosis, excepting primary biliary cirrhosis.
Aetiology
Although most CCCs have no obvious cause, several predisposing factors have been identified, including primary sclerosing cholangitis, an autoimmune disease (10–20% of PSC patients), and liver fluke in Asians, especially Opisthorchis viverrini and Clonorchis sinensis.
CCC seems also to be associated with any cause of chronic biliary inflammation and injury, with alcoholic liver disease, choledocholithiasis, choledochal cysts (10%), and Caroli’s disease.
Clinical Features:
CCC most typically presents as painless jaundice, often with pruritus or weight loss, and acholic stools.
Investigation:
Diagnosis is made by biopsy, percutaneously for peripheral liver lesions or, more commonly, via endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) under direct vision for central lesions.
The tumors often stain positively for cytokeratins 7, 8, and 19 and negatively for cytokeratin 20.
However, histology alone cannot usually distinguish CCC from metastases from primary tumors of the colon or pancreas.
Serologic tumor markers appear to be nonspecific, but CEA, CA 19-9, and CA-125 are often elevated in CCC patients and are useful for following response to therapy.
Radiologic evaluation typically starts with ultrasound, which is useful in visualizing dilated
bile ducts, and then proceeds with either MRI or magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) or helical CT scans.
Invasive ERCP is then needed to define the biliary tree and obtain a biopsy or is needed therapeutically to decompress an obstructed biliary tree with internal stent placement.
If that fails, then percutaneous biliary drainage will be needed, with the biliary drainage flowing into an external bag.
Central tumors often invade the porta hepatis, and locoregional lymph node involvement by tumor is frequent.
GALLBLADDER CANCER (GB Ca)
GB Ca has an even worse prognosis than CCC, with typical survival of ~6 months or less. Women are affected much more commonly than men (4:1), unlike in HCC or CCC, and GB Ca is more common than
CCC. Most patients have a history of gallstones, but very few patients with gallstones develop GB Ca (~0.2%). It presents similarly to CCC and is often diagnosed unexpectedly during gallstone or cholecystitis surgery.
Clinical Features:
Presentation is typically that of chronic cholecystitis, Chronic right upper quadrant pain and weight loss.
Investigations:
Useful but nonspecific serum markers include CEA and CA 19-9.
CT scans or MRCP typically reveal a gallbladder mass.
The mainstay of treatment is surgical, either simple or radical cholecystectomy for stages I or II disease, respectively.
CARCINOMA OF THE AMPULLA OF VATER
This tumor arises within 2 cm of the distal end of the common bile duct, and is mainly (90%) an adenocarcinoma. Locoregional lymph nodes are commonly involved (50%), and the liver is the most frequent site for metastases.
Clinical Presentation:
Jaundice, and
many patients also have pruritus,
weight loss, and
epigastric pain.
Investigation:
Initial evaluation is performed with an abdominal ultrasound to assess vascular involvement, biliary dilatation, and liver lesions.
This is followed by a CT scan, or MRI and especially MRCP.
Adjuvant chemotherapy or radiotherapy has not been shown to be useful in enhancing survival. For metastatic tumors, chemotherapy is currently experimental.
Ayurveda can be better option in Cholangiocarcinoma (CCC), Carcinoma of the Ampulla of Vater and Gallbladder Cancer (Gb Ca). Following drugs may be used:
Lashuna, (Allium sativum) Garlic
Nimba, (Azadirachta indica), Neem tree
Sharpunkha, (Tephrosia purpurea)
Kumari, (Aloe barbadensis), Common Indian Aloe
Bhringaraj (Eclipta alba)
Ayurveda is better option as main line therapy or as complimentary therapy in various complications related to Cancer. Herbs mentioned above are just a bucket from the ocean. A good research in the field will help to improve the life of cancer patient without any economic burden.

Dr Ojha, your post on CCC at17.13: Clinical concepts about CCC are noteworthy. I have to say something from technical angle that yakrit & bile duct being the seat of pitta, will it be appropriate to give Rasaun and Bhallatak in such condition though they are potent enough otherwise for their beneficial effects in cancerous conditions elsewhere. I would instead recommend the use of Daruharidra, which is mridu, safe and proven cholegogue, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, hepatoprotective and anticancer remedy. Simple Triphla as a Rasayan should never be forgotten in this condition with anupan of Ark Makoye or Aja/Avi Ksheer having fibrolytic activity. We need wider discussion on this subject.
[20/03 9:51 PM] +91 97367 63581: What if bile duct is completely blocked
[20/03 9:53 PM] Katoch sir:
Best Tamra Yog for CCC seems to be Loknath Ras or Tamra Parpati and for bile duct blockage Moolak Kshar.
[20/03 9:54 PM] satyendra ojha sir:
I think , daarvi will not be so potent to work on cancer cells as bhallataka and rasona..
[20/03 9:57 PM] satyendra ojha sir:
Rason is found to work on cholelithiasis , sanghaata vighatana , the effect on cancer cells can be presumed..
[20/03 9:59 PM] Katoch sir:
Daarvi is not for cancer cells but for overall care of the condition of the liver. Tamra yog can take better care of cancer than bhallatak and rasoun being Agnideepak, Lekhan and required in very small dose and comparatively safe.
[20/03 10:00 PM] satyendra ojha sir:
Rason ksheeram is indicated in visham jvara... So , I don't think it's ushnata is major issue..
[20/03 10:01 PM] satyendra ojha sir:
Even , hridroga is an other indication of rason ksheeram , so , it will take care of yakrita..
[20/03 10:02 PM] satyendra ojha sir:
Yes , in combination , daarvi trifala devadaru like drugs should be added..
[20/03 10:02 PM] M gopikrsnan Dr.: Tamra also indicated in hridroga /yakrit vikaara/cancer
[20/03 10:03 PM] satyendra ojha sir: Yes , Tamra is my choice in CCC..
[20/03 10:04 PM] +91 97367 63581:
I have seen better results with Tamra in case of HCC, CCC, But limitation seen once Jaundice developed, In CC C ERCP stanting found very helpful to reduce the bilirubin level intently then we can carry forward our treatment.this is as per my small experience Please forgive me .

Garlic
Garlic belongs to the family of vegetables called Allium, which also includes onions, scallions, leeks and chives. According to AICR's second expert report, Food, Nutrition, Physical Activity, and the Prevention of Cancer: A Global Perspective, foods belonging to the allium family of vegetables probably protect against stomach cancer. Moreover, the evidence in the report shows that garlic, in particular, probably decreases one’s chances of developing colorectal cancer.
The protective effect of garlic was shown to have a dose response relationship. In other words, highest exposure to the food showed the greatest decrease in risk. For cancer protection, AICR experts suggest including garlic as part of a well-balanced predominantly plant-based diet.
These allium vegetables contain many substances now being studied for their anti-cancer effects, such as quercetin, allixin and a large group of organosulfur compounds that includes allicin, alliin and
Laboratory research has also shown that one garlic component, called diallyl disulfide, exerts potent preventive effects against cancers of the skin, colon and lung. Recently, this compound proved able to kill leukemia cells in the laboratory. A compound derived from garlic called ajoene has displayed similar activity.
In animal studies, components in Allium vegetables have slowed the development of cancer in several stages and at various body sites: stomach, breast, esophagus, colon , liver and lung

[20/03 10:23 PM] satyendra ojha sir: Garlic Rescues Rat Livers
In a 2011 issue of “Indian Journal of Experimental Biology,” researchers fed rats a lead compound for seven days and then gauged the amount of liver injury induced. They then gave the rats a water extract of fresh garlic, which reduced the amount of liver damage. They theorized that this was due to garlic’s antioxidant capabilities. Antioxidants hunt down and disable unstable oxygen molecules that cause cellular damage. In another animal study, scientists used alcohol to induce liver injury in rats and then gave them black garlic extract, which increased antioxidant liver enzymes. It also reduced DNA damage to white immune blood cells called lymphocytes, as reported in a 2011 issue of “Journal of Medicinal Food.” More human studies need to be completed before garlic can be recommended as a therapy for liver disease.

To find a better contact solvent to dissolve gallstones we studied invitro use ofgarlic oil and compared it with monooctanoin.In the first stage gall stonesobtained from patients after cholecystectomy were subjected to dissolution in different concentrations of garlic oil. Then the rate of dissolution of gall stonesin garlic oil was compared to that in monooctanoin in stage II. Efficacy of various concentration of garlic oil and monoocatanoin in dissolving gallstonesin artificial gall bladder and common bile duct models were compared in stage III.Garlic oil dissolved the cholesterol gall stones in proportion to the concentration used. The gall stone fragmentation was faster [6 hours V/s 36 hours] and more [88.30% V/s 71.01%] by garlic oil in comparison to monooctanoin in test tubes and even in artificial gallbladder and common bile duct models.Garlic oil is a better contact dissolving agent of gallstones than monooctanoin.
