There has been enormous progress in the surgical treatment of biliary tract cancers in the past 50 years. In preoperative management, biliary drainage methods have changed from percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage to endoscopic nasobiliary drainage, while the advent of multidetector‐row computed tomography in imaging diagnostics now enables visualization of three‐dimensional anatomy, extent of cancer progression, and hepatic segment volume. Portal vein embolization has also greatly improved the safety of extended hepatectomy, and indication of extended hepatectomy can now be objectively determined with a combination of the indocyanine green test and computed tomography volumetry. In terms of surgery, combined resection and reconstruction of the portal vein and/or hepatic artery can now be safely carried out at specialized centers. Further, long‐term survival can be attained with combined vascular resection if R0 resection can be achieved, even in locally advanced cancer. Hepatopancreatoduodenectomy, combined major hepatectomy with pancreatoduodenectomy, should be aggressively carried out for laterally advanced cholangiocarcinoma, whereas its indication for advanced gallbladder cancer should be carefully evaluated. Japanese surgeons have made a significant contribution to the progression of extended surgeries such as combined vascular resection and hepatopancreatoduodenectomy for biliary tract cancer. Changes in preoperative management of hepatectomy for biliary tract cancer.
