Klatskin-Mimicking Lesions

Altemeier-Klatskin tumor is a perihilar cholangiocarcinoma that occurs within 2 cm of the confluence of the right and left hepatic duct at the hepatic hilum and accounts for 50-70% of all cholangiocarcinomas cases.

In this review, we will present the most common Klatskin-mimicking lesions.
