ObjectivesTo systematically review the efficacy of laparoscopic hepatectomy (LH) and open hepatectomy (OH) on the hepatocellular carcinoma patients with cirrhosis.MethodsPubMed, EMbase, Web of Science, The Cochrane Library, CBM, CNKI, WanFang Data and VIP databases were searched online to collect the cohort studies of LHvs.OH on hepatocellular carcinoma patients with cirrhosis from inception to November 31st, 2017. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of included studies, then, meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.3 software.ResultsA total of 15 cohort studies involving 1 720 patients were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that: compared with OH, LH had less blood loss (MD=–226.94, 95%CI –339.87 to –114.01, P<0.000 1), lower transfusion rate (OR=0.48, 95%CI 0.27 to 0.83,P=0.009), less occurrence of complications (OR=0.32, 95%CI 0.23 to 0.45, P<0.000 01), shorter postoperative hospital stay (MD=–3.66, 95%CI –5.19 to –2.14,P<0.000 01), lower mortality rate (OR=0.47, 95%CI 0.24 to 0.92,P=0.03), wider surgical margin (OR=0.78, 95%CI 0.20 to 1.36, P=0.009), higher 1, 3 and 5-year survival rate (OR=2.47, 95%CI 1.35 to 4.51, P=0.003; OR=1.62, 95%CI 1.11 to 2.36, P=0.01; OR=1.58, 95%CI 1.19 to 2.10, P=0.002, respectively) and 1-year disease free survival rate (OR=1.69, 95%CI=1.20 to 2.39, P=0.003). There were no significant differences in operation time (MD=28.64, 95%CI –7.53 to 64.82, P=0.12), tumor size (MD=–0.37, 95%CI –0.75 to 0.02, P=0.06), 3-year disease free survival rate (OR=1.14, 95%CI 0.86 to 1.51, P=0.36) and 5-year disease free survival rate (OR=0.99, 95%CI 0.77 to 1.28, P=0.97) between the two groups.ConclusionsThe perioperation and short-term postoperative outcomes of LH are significant in HCC patients with cirrhosis, and which have good long-term prognosis. Due to limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high quality studies are required to verify above conclusions.
ObjectiveTo discuss the clinical characteristics of liver cirrhosis in elderly patients. MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 67 patients (elderly group) with liver cirrhosis aged ≥60 treated between January 1998 and December 2010. Then, we compared these cases with another 72 liver cirrhosis patients (non-elderly group) aged<60. ResultsThe incidence of jaundice, ascites and albumin deficiency in the elderly patients was significantly higher than that in the non-elderly patients (P<0.05). Complications in the elderly group were relatively more, including electrolyte imbalance, infections, gastrointestinal bleeding, hepatic encephalopathy, liver cancer, liver and kidney syndrome and liver and lung syndrome, and the incidence of these complications was all significantly higher than the non-elderly group (P<0.05) except the liver and kidney syndrome (P>0.05). The causes of liver cirrhosis in both groups were similar. The most common cause was hepatitis B virus infection, followed by chronic alcoholism, but in the elderly group, chronic alcoholism, cholestasis, poisoning from medicines and poisons and liver blood circulation disorders were more common than the non-elderly group (P<0.05); hepatitis B and non-alcoholic fatty hepatitis were more common in the non-elderly group than in the elderly group (P<0.05). The elderly group had more Child-Pugh class C cases (P<0.05), while there were more class A cases in the non-elderly group (P<0.05). Twenty-six patients died in the elderly group with a mortality rate of 38.8%; while only 13 died in the non-elderly group with a mortality rate of 18.1%. The difference of mortality rate was significant between the two groups (P<0.05). Common causes of death in the elderly group were infection, hepatic encephalopathy, and electrolyte disorders and gastrointestinal bleeding, while the common causes of death in the non-elderly group were gastrointestinal bleeding and electrolyte disorders. ConclusionThe etiology, clinical manifestations and prognosis of liver cirrhosis in elderly patients differ from those in younger patients. We must pay more attention on treating complications of liver cirrhosis in elderly patients.
ObjectiveTo evaluate whether radiofrequency-assisted associating liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy (RALPPS) is a safer and more effective modified treatment for patients with cirrhosis-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). MethodsRALPPS were performed in patients with HCC and insufficient volume of future liver remnant (FLR<40%). Data of the patients during perioperative period such as operative morbidity, mortality, operative time, blood loss, percent increase in FLR, and interval between operations, were analyzed to assess the effectiveness and safety of the operation. ResultsA total of 8 patients were performed the RALPPS operation, and 6 cases completed both stages, 2 cases of postoperative complications or tumor metastasis did not complete the two phase of surgery. The average first and second stages operative time was (214.3±35.7) min, (266.7±46.0) min, respectively, and the average two stages blood loss during the operation was (218.8±113.2) mL,(501.7±224.5) mL, respectively. The mean preoperative FLR was (26.4±7.1)%, and the mean FLR before the second stage was (46.2±4.6)%. The average percentage increase in FLR during the interval time was 35%-113%, and the mean time interval between operations were (22.2±6.4) days. One case died of renal failure and severe pulmonary infection after two operation. Seven patients were followed-up (11.6+2.0) months (8-15 months). Two patients who had not completed the two-stage operation died within 3 months after discharge. Three patients who had completed the two-stage operation were tumor recurrence in 3-9 months after discharged from hospital and supplemented interventional therapy, 1 of them died,and 2 patients were followed-up to now without recurrence. ConclusionsRALPPS is equivalent to ALPPS for treating patients with cirrhosis-related HCC and insufficient FLR volume.

【摘要】 目的 探讨肝炎后肝硬化自发性细菌性腹膜炎（spontaneous bacterial peritonitis，SBP）的诊疗情况及头孢哌酮舒巴坦联合左旋氧氟沙星对SBP的治疗效果。 方法 对2004年1月-2009年12月收治的54例肝炎后肝硬化SBP患者，应用头孢哌酮舒巴坦联合左旋氧氟沙星给与治疗，并观察分析治疗效果。 结果 肝炎后肝硬化SBP的临床表现以发热，腹痛为主，具有典型腹膜刺激征的不足半数。外周血白细胞升高者不多见，腹腔积液中白细胞计数、PMN计数和细菌培养是自发性细菌性腹膜炎的重要诊断指标。 结论 肝炎后肝硬化合并SBP的临床表现不典型。致病菌以G-杆菌为主。在早期诊断、综合治疗的基础上，头孢哌酮舒巴坦联合左旋氧氟沙星对自发性细菌性腹膜炎的治疗效果显著。【Abstract】 Objective To evaluate the diagnosis and treatment of post-hepatitis cirrhosis complicated with spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) cases and the efficacy of cefoperazone and sulbactam combined with levofloxacin in the treatment of cirrhotic patients with SBP. Methods From January 2004 to December 2009, the clinical data from 54 cases of SBP after cirrhosis were analyzed. The patients underwent the treatment of cefoperazone sulbactam combined with levofloxacin. The therapeutic effect was observed. Results The main clinical manifestations were fever and abdominal pain, and about half of the patients had the typical peritoneal irritation. Only a few patients had elevated peripheral white blood cells (WBC). The WBC count, abdominal effusion polymorphonuclearcyte count and bacteria cultivation were the indexes of diagnosis of SBP. Conclusion The clinical features of post-hepatitis cirrhosis complicated with SBP are not typical. The main pathogenic bacteria is G- bacilli. In the early diagnosis and treatment, cefoperazone sulbactam combined with levofloxacin is effective.

Objective To evaluate the efficiency and security of physical exercise with low intensity against malnutrition and sarcopenia in patients with cirrhosis. Methods Between December 2014 and October 2015, 37 patients with cirrhosis were divided into two groups according to their willings, with 19 in the exercise group and 18 in the control group. Endurance of the exercise for 3 months were recorded. Mid-arm circumference, " up and go” time, width of portal vein and Child-Pugh score were compared before and after the research between the two groups. Results Three months later, the mid-arm circumference and the " up and go” time of the exercise group [(33.99±2.15) cm, (9.17±0.35) s] were better than those before the exercise [(32.09±2.58) cm, (9.77±0.46) s] and those in the control group [(31.93±2.04) cm, (9.76±0.30) s], and the differences above were all statistically significant (P<0.05). The change of the width of portal vein was positively correlated with pre-exercise body mass index in overweight patients (r=0.93, P=0.007). Conclusions Physical exercise with low intensity is safe and effective against malnutrition and sarcopenia in patients with cirrhosis. Overweitht patiens or malnutrition at the early stage may benefit more.
