Résumé

BACKGROUND & AIMS: The trends in incidence and management of biliary tract cancer (BTC) were investigated in a well-defined French population over a 30-year period (1976-2005). METHODS: Data were obtained from the Burgundy digestive cancer registry. Age-standardised incidence rates and trends in incidence were determined. Treatment and stage at diagnosis were also investigated. Five-year survival rates were calculated. RESULTS: Six hundred and fifteen cases of BTC were recorded. There was no significant change in BTC incidence over the 30-year period. For extrahepatic BTC age-standardised incidence rates were 1.1/100,000 for 1976-80 and 2001-2005. These rates were respectively 0.3 and 0.2/100,000 for intrahepatic BTC. The proportion of patients undergoing resection for cure increased over time from 4.8% to 14.2% (p
