ObjectiveTo identify the risk factors of postoperative recurrence and survival for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma within Milan criteria following liver resection. MethodsData of 267 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma within Milan criteria who received liver resection between 2007 and 2013 in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed. ResultsAmong the 267 patients, 123 patients suffered from recurrence and 51 patients died. The mean time to recurrence were (16.9±14.5) months (2.7-75.1 months), whereas the mean time to death were (27.5±16.4) months (6.1-75.4 months). The recurrence-free survival rates in 1-, 3-, and 5-year after operation was 76.8%, 56.3%, and 47.6%, respectively; whereas the overall survival rates in 1-, 3-, and 5-year after operation was 96.6%, 82.5%, and 74.5%, respectively. Multivariate analyses suggested the tumor differentiation, microvascular invasion, and multiple tumors were independent risk factors for postoperative recurrence; whereas the tumor differentiation, positive preoperative HBV-DNA load, and preoperative neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio adversely influenced the postoperative survival. ConclusionsFor patients with hepatocellular carcinoma within Milan criteria after liver resection, the tumor differentiation, microvascular invasion, and multiple tumors contribute to postoperative recurrence; whereas the tumor differentiation, positive preoperative HBV-DNA load, and preoperative neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio adversely influence the postoperative survival.
Laparoscopic hepatectomy is routinely used in the surgical treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma, and has formed a standardized operating procedure. Tumors located in the segments Ⅶ and Ⅷ of liver as well as the paracaval subsegment of caudate lobe are considered to be difficult sites for laparoscopic hepatectomy due to the deep anatomical location, proximity to important vascular structures, difficulty in exposing the visual field under laparoscopy, and limited operating space. Based on the experience of our team and related research reports, the authors analyzed and summarized countermeasures for the difficulties of laparoscopic hepatectomy in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma in difficult sites. Adhering to the tumor-centered and margin-based principles, accurate preoperative assessment, selection of the correct surgical approach, designing liver resection plane guided by hepatic vena while taking into account portal vein territory, and giving preference to ananatomical hepatectomy while preserving functional liver parenchyma as much as possible are the prerequisites for ensuring minimally invasive and oncology benefits for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma in difficult sites.
ObjectiveTo investigate the effect and prognosis of emergency hepatectomy and second stage hepatectomy after transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) in spontaneous rupture and bleeding of resectable primary liver cancer.MethodsA total of 42 patients with spontaneous rupture and bleeding of resectable primary liver cancer in this hospital from January 2010 to January 2016 were retrospectively reviewed. Among them 24 cases had accepted the emergency hepatectomy in 24 h–48 h after admission (emergency hepatectomy group, n=24), 18 cases had accepted the second stage hepatectomy in 1 week–2 weeks after the TACE (second stage hepatectomy group, n=18), the intraoperative blood loss and intraoperative blood transfusion volume, perioperative mortality, postoperative incidence of hepatic insufficiency, recurrence rate and abdominal metastasis rate within 1 year after the operation, 1- and 3-year survival rates were compared between the emergency hepatectomy group and the second stage hepatectomy group.ResultsThere was no significant difference in the preoperative general data between these two groups (P>0.050). The intraoperative blood loss and transfusion volume of the emergency hepatectomy group were significantly more than those of the second stage hepatectomy group (P=0.028, P=0.017). There were no significant differences in the perioperative mortality (P=0.489), incidence of hepatic insufficiency (P=1.000), 1- and 3-year survival rates (P=0.650, P=0.463) and 1-year recurrence rate (P=0.601) between these two groups. No intraperitoneal implantation metastasis was found in these two groups.ConclusionBoth emergency hepatectomy and second stage hepatectomy after TACE are safe and effective in treatment of spontaneous rupture and bleeding of resectable primary liver cancer, appropriate treatment should be selected according to the specific conditions of patients.
ObjectiveTo compare efficacy of laparoscopic or open hepatectomy in benign liver tumors patients with different difficult operations. MethodsAccording to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, the patients with benign liver tumors who underwent hepatectomy in the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University from September 2014 to March 2021 were collected. The enrolled patients were assigned into low, medium, and high difficulties by the Hasegawa liver resection surgical difficulty score model, then the patients were matched by propensity score matching. The liver function and inflammatory indexes, intraoperative bleeding, operative time, total hospital stay, postoperative complications, and hospitalization expenses of patients with benign liver tumors after laparoscopic (laparoscope group) or open (open group) hepatectomy were compared. ResultsA total of 209 patients who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were enrolled in this study. According to the Hasegawa criteria, there were 59, 89, and 61 patients with low, medium, and high difficulties respectively. After 1∶1 propensity score matching, 18, 34, and 14 patients in the laparoscope group and open group were matched respectively. There were no statistic differences in the baseline data between the laparoscope group and open group (P>0.05). ① For the patients with low and medium difficulties, compared with the open group, the different values of alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, white blood cell count, and neutrophil percentage were lower (P<0.05), the intraoperative bleeding and total hospital stay were less or shorter (P<0.05), and the albumin were higher (P<0.05) in the laparoscope group. There were no statistic differences in these indexes among the patients with high difficulty (P>0.05). ② Compared with the open group, the operative time of the laparoscope group was shorter in the patients with low difficulty (P<0.05) and longer in the patients with high difficulty (P<0.05), and there was no statistic difference in patients with medium difficulty (P>0.05). ③ The postoperative complications had no statistic differences between the two groups for the patients with low and high difficulties (P>0.05), while which in the laparoscope group were lower than in the open group for the patients with medium difficulty (P<0.05). ④ The hospitalization expenses of the laparoscope group was higher than the open group for the patients with high difficulty (P<0.05), while which had no statistic differences between the two groups for the patients with low and medium difficulties (P>0.05). ⑤ The total hospital stay of the laparoscope group was shorter than the open group (P<0.05) no matter which difficult operation.ConclusionsAccording to results of this study, laparoscopic hepatectomy has more obvious advantages as compared with open hepatectomy for patients with low or medium difficulty, which could greatly shorten hospital stay and accelerate rehabilitation of patients. Even for patients with high difficulty, laparoscopic hepatectomy still shows an advantage of shortening hospital stay.
ObjectiveTo summarize clinical applications of inferior right hepatic vein (IRHV) in liver surgery and to provide a basis for clinical applications of IRHV.MethodThe relevant literatures about clinical applications of IRHV in liver surgery in recent years were reviewed.ResultsAs a kind of short hepatic veins, the IRHV directly flowed into the inferior vena cava, often accompanied by the portal vein of the segment Ⅵ. The occurrence rate of IRHV was 80%–90% by the autopsy examination, while which was 10%–30% by the imaging examination. The caliber of IRHV was 0.22–0.95 cm, and its caliber was negatively correlated with the caliber of right hepatic vein. The IRHV played a great role in the classification and treatment of the Budd-Chiari syndrome. According to the Couinaud liver classification method, the IRHV mainly drained the blood of segment Ⅵ. The existence of IRHV expanded the indications of hepatectomy. The reconstruction of IRHV in the liver transplantation could not only reserve the function of donor liver, but could compensatively drain the corresponding liver areas if the acute occlusion of other major hepatic veins happened.ConclusionsIRHV has some important clinical significances in liver surgery. Fully studying course characters and adjacent relationship of IRHV can not only avoid injury during surgery, but also provide a new treatment idea for related liver diseases.
ObjectiveTo observe the impact of antiviral therapy on prognosis in patients after curative resection for hepatitis B virus (HBV)-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). MethodsThe data of 50 patients who had undergone liver resection for HBV-related HCC in our department from August 2008 to June 2012 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into two groups:21 patients who had not antiviral therapy (untreated group) and 29 patients who received antiviral therapy using nucleotide analogues (antiviral therapy group). ResultsAfter radical resection of HCC, the disease-free survival rate of 1-year, 3-year, and 5-year were 72.4%, 58.6%, and 31.0% in antiviral therapy group and 61.9%, 38.1%, and 14.3% in untreated group, respectively. The overall survival rate of 1-year, 3-year, and 5-year were 86.2%, 68.9%, and 55.2% in antiviral therapy group and 71.4%, 47.6%, and 28.6% in untreated group, respectively. The cumulative disease-free survival rate and overall survival rate of antiviral therapy group were significantly higher than those in the untreated group (P < 0.05). Univariate analysis revealed that the number of tumor, antiviral therapy, and TNM staging were risk factor for tumor-free survival rate, The tumor size, the number of tumor, antiviral therapy, and TNM staging were risk factor for overall survival rate. Multivariate analysis revealed that the number of tumor and TNM staging were independent risk factor for tumor-free survival rate (OR:2.95, 95% CI:1.502-6.114, P < 0.05; OR:4.12, 95% CI:1.972-8.960, P < 0.05), the antiviral therapy and TNM staging were independent risk factor for overall survival rate (OR:3.86, 95% CI:1.745-7.028, P < 0.05; OR:5.17, 95% CI:2.356-11.479, P < 0.05). ConclusionUsing nucleotide analogs antiviral therapy may improve the prognosis after resection of patients with HBV-related HCC.
