The experimental models of chronic hepatic lesion of 40 rabbits were made by intra-abdominal injection of thioacetamide.The chronic hepatic lesion was confirmed by pathological examination and hepatectomies were performed in accordance with different measurements on each rabbit.The observations included indocyanine green retention rate,hepatic resection volume,and the outcomes of operations.The results showed that the mortality was correlative with the change of hepatic functions in the background of chronic hepatic lesion.The indocyanine green retention and the level of serum albumin are important parameters to indicate hepatic impairment.When the former was over 40% or the latter below 2.8g% the operative danger was high and the mortality was over 50%.In accordance with the classification of hepatic function,the preoperative functional state of liver were classified:grade A,B and C.the mortality of posthepatectomy were respectively 16.7%,3O%,and 72%.The multiple progressive regression equation is employed for calculating the postoperative outcome.The equation predicted the postoperative outcome with 88.9% accuracy.
Objective To investigate feasibility and clinical efficacy of exploration and stone removal through choledochoscope via hepatic cross-section during laparoscopic left lateral hepatectomy for hepatolithiasis. Methods The patients who had left extrahepatic bile duct stones with choledocholithiasis from January 2012 to December 2016 were retrospectively collected. Among these patients, 29 cases underwent an exploration and stone removal through choledochoscope via hepatic cross-section during laparoscopic left lateral hepatectomy (observation group) and 26 cases underwent an exploration and stone removal through choledochoscope via incision of common bile duct during laparoscopic left lateral hepatectomy (control group). The operative time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative hospital stay, postoperative nutritional, and complications rate were compared between these two groups. Results The operations were performed successfully and no perioperative death happened in both groups. There were no significant differences in the operative time and intraoperative blood loss between the two groups (P>0.05). Moreover, the postoperative hospital stay of the observation group was significantly shorter than that of the control group (P<0.05). In addition, there were no significant differences in the complications of the bile leakage, subphrenic infection, and biliary residual stones between the two groups (P>0.05). Also, the levels of prealbumin and the lymphocytes in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group on the 3rd and 6th day after the operation (P<0.05). Conclusions Preliminary results of limited cases in this study show that exploration and removal of stones through choledochoscope via hepatic cross-section during laparoscopic left lateral hepatectomy for hepatolithiasis is relatively safe and reliable, its procedure is simplified, could avoid relevant complications due to biliary incision and T tube drainage.
ObjectiveTo exclusively compare the short-and long-term outcomes of hepatic resection (HR) patients with multifocal tumors meeting the Milan criteria between locating in same and different sections. MethodsA total of 219 consecutive HR patients with multifocal tumors meeting the Milan criteria were divided into group SS (n=97, same section) and group DS (n=122, different sections) according to their anatomical location (Couinaud's segmentation). ResultsThe 1-, 3-, and 5-year overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS) rates were significantly higher in the group SS than those in the group DS (P < 0.05). The subgroup analysis showed that patients with 2 tumors and those undergoing en bloc resection were associated with better OS and RFS (P < 0.05). ConclusionsFor HCC patients with multifocal tumors meeting the Milan criteria, those with tumors locating in same hepatic section may have better longterm survival and lower HCC recurrence rates than those locating in different sections after HR.
Objective To discuss the effective surgical treatment of intrahepatic lithiasis combined with high hepatic duct strictures. MethodsTwo hundreds and sixteen cases of intrahepatic lithiasis and high hepatic duct strictures treated in this hospital from January 1993 to October 2002 were analysed retrospectively.ResultsOne hundred and eightythree cases underwent different selective operation by selected time; 33 cases complicated with acute obstructive suppurative cholangitis underwent emergency were performed single biliary drainage, in which 30 cases were reoperated. The operative procedure were: hepatic lobectomy,high cholangiotomy and plastic repair,exposure of hepatic duct of the 2nd and the 3rd order,and plastic repair with own patch and choledochojejunostomy.Two hundreds and six cases were cured,the curative rate was 95.4%; 8 cases improved (3.7%), and 2 cases died (0.9%).Conclusion The best effective surgical treatment of intrahpatic lithiasis is hepatic lobectomy. Exposure of hepatic duct of the 2nd and the 3rd order is a satisfactory to release the hepatic duct strictures and to clear the intrahepatic lithiasis. For patients with normal extrahepatic bile duct and Oddi’s function, plastic repair of bile duct with own patch is possible to keep the normal form and function. Cholangioscopy may play an important role in the treatment of intrahepatic tract lithiasis during operation.

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 summarize the current status and progress of surgical treatment for postoperative recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).MethodThe literatures about studies of surgical treatment of postoperative recurrent HCC were reviewed.ResultsThe surgical operation was an effective method for the treatment of recurrent HCC. The operation methods included re-hepatectomy and salvage liver transplantation. There was no uniform standard for the indication of re-hepatectomy, but the basic principles were the same. At present, the indication of salvage liver transplantation was mainly based on Milan criteria. For patients with recurrent HCC who met the operation indications, surgical operation could improve the long-term survival rate of patients and benefit the patients.ConclusionIt migh prolong the survival time and improve the long-term survival rate of patients with recurrent HCC when the appropriate patients and reasonable surgical methods are chosen according to the surgical indications, the tumor situation of initial hepatectomy, postoperative recurrence time, and other factors.
