Objective To investigate the value of retention rate of indocyanine green at fifteen minutes (ICGR15) during hemihepatectomy for evaluation of residual liver reserve function in patients with primary liver carcinoma. Methods During hemihepatectomy, ICGR15 was tested in 44 patients after the hepatic artery and portal vein of resected side were ligated. Child-Pugh score, Child-Pugh classification, and MELD score before operation were tested. After operation, the liver function condition was estimated. Results The incidence of liver dysfunction was significantly lower in ICGR15lt;10% group (17.9%, 5/28) than that in 10%~15% group (75.0%, 12/16), Plt;0.05. There was no significant difference of Child-Pugh score among normal liver function group, mild insufficiency of liver function group, and severe insufficiency of liver function group （Pgt;0.05）. ICGR15 and MELD score in normal liver function group were statistical lower than those in mild insufficiency of liver function group and severe insufficiency of liver function group (Plt;0.05). ICGR15 was significantly lower in Child-Pugh A group than that in Child-Pugh B group (Plt;0.05). Conclusion Intraoperative residual liver ICGR15 may be more precisely compared with Child-Pugh score in evaluation liver reserve function for the patients with primary liver carcinoma and can help to guide liver resection.
【Abstract】Objective To look for a feasible way to evaluate hepatic reserve function completely by retention rate of indocyanine green at 15 minutes （ICGR15）and Child-Pugh classification supplemented by hepatic clearance of D-sorbitol (CLh-s). Methods The ICGR15, Child-Pugh classification and CLh-s were examined in 186 patients with liver cirrhosis. Relations between CLh-s and operative complications were further studied when ICGR15 and Child-Pugh classification was superposed. ResultsThe superpositions of ICGR15 (40% being boundary) and Child-Pugh classification was centralized between Child-Pugh B and C. ICGR15 of 17 examples were higher than 40% in 63 examples of Child-Pugh B. Eight examples of them had some complications, CLh-s=(584.52±98.27) ml/min (CLh-s＜700 ml/min), while 9 examples of them had no complications, CLh-s=(801.25±75.04) ml/min (CLh-s＞700 ml/min). Conclusion The CLh-s could be interrelated with operative complication, and it is considered as an effective supplement to ICGR15 and Child-Pugh classification for the evaluation of hepatic reserve function, CLh-s (700 ml/min being boundary) could be used to predict operative complication, to evaluate hepatic reserve function effectively, and to provide the basis for choosing the right time for operation.
Objective To investigate the changes of indocyanine green retention rate at 15 minutes (ICGR15) of autologous peripheral blood CD34+ hematopoietic stem cells transplantation in end-stage liver disease (end-stage liver, disease, ESLD) patients with different Child-Pugh grades during before and after transplantation of 3, 6, 12, 36, and 60 months. Methods The CD34+ hematopoietic stem cells transplantation were performed in 60 cases of advanced liver cirrhosis with different Child-Pugh grades who were ineffectively treated with strictly conservative treatment and complied with the criterion of liver transplantation. The ICGR15 were performed before transplantation and in 3, 6, 12, 36 and 60 months after transplantation. And the results of each time point in each Child-Pugh classification group were compared, and the rate of change of ICGR15 value were compared between each Child-Pugh classification group. Results The ICGR15 values of the Child-Pugh grading groups all decreased with time. In Child A group, there were respectively significant differences between the 6 months, 12 months, 36 months, and 60 months groups after transplantation and preoperative and 3 months groups after transplantation (P<0.05), but there was no significant difference between preoperative and 3 months group after transplantation (P>0.05), and there was significant difference between the 12 months and the 60 months group after transplantation (P<0.05). As same as Child A group, there were also significant differences between that time groups in the Child B group (P<0.05), but there were also significant differences between the 3 months group after transplantation and preoperative (P<0.05), and there were respectively significant differences between the 6 months and 12 months, 36 months, and 60 months group after transplantation in the Child B group (P<0.05). Also in the Child C group, there were significant differences between that time groups (P<0.05), but there was no significant difference between preoperative and 3 months group after transplantation (P>0.05), and there were respectively significant differences between the 6 months and 12 months, 36 months, and 60 months group after transplantation (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the rate of ICGR15 between Child-Pugh classification groups. Conclusion Autologous peripheral blood CD34+ hematopoietic stem cells transplantation can effectively improve the liver function reserve capacity of ESLD patients and improve the safety of operation for a long time.
ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of indocyanogen green retention rate (ICGR) measurement and Child-Pugh classification of liver function in the preoperative evaluation of hepatic functional reservation. MethodsThe level of ICGR at 15 min (ICGR15) and the percentage of liver fibrosis in 103 patients with liver cancer were measured before hepatectomy, and the Child-Pugh classification of liver function was evaluated before and after the operations, and their connections were analyzed. ResultsAs the rise of Child-Pugh classification of liver function, the percentage of liver fibrosis increased gradually, there were significant differences between any two Child-Pugh classification (Plt;0.05). There was a linear correlation between the ICGR15 and the liver fibrosis percentage (rs=0.960, Plt;0.05). The value of preoperative ICGR15 in patients with postoperative Child-Pugh classification from grade A to grade B or grade B to grade C was gnificantly higher than that in patients with stabilization of Child-Pugh classification before and after operations (Plt;0.05). ConclusionICGR15 combined with Child-Pugh classification can improve the accuracy for the evaluation of preoperative hepatic functional reservation.
【摘要】 目的 探讨肝硬化食管静脉曲张程度与门脾静脉内径、肝功能Child-Pugh分级间的关系。 方法 对2007年1月-2010年1月间56例肝硬化患者行增强CT，测量门静脉主干及脾门部脾静脉直径，采用Child-Pugh分级标准进行肝功能分级，并行胃镜了解食管静脉曲张的程度。 结果 食管静脉曲张程度与门、脾静脉内径呈正相关，而Child-Pugh分级与门脾静脉内径、食管静脉曲张程度无相关性。 结论 根据门、脾静脉内径可预测肝硬化上消化道出血的可能性；在Child-Pugh分级基础上对患者上消化道出血的风险进行评估显得尤为重要。【Abstract】 Objective To discuss the relationship among the esophageal varices, the diameter of portal vein and spleen vein, and Child-Pugh score in patients with liver cirrhosis. Methods The study included 56 patients who had liver cirrhosis between January 2007 and January 2010. We measured their portal vein and spleen vein diameter with CT; used Child-Pugh score to grade their hepatic function; and detected the degree of the esophageal varices by endoscopy. Results There was a positive correlation between the degree of esophageal varices and diameter of portal vein and spleen vein, while no correlation showed between portal vein and spleen vein diameter, degree of esophageal varices, and Child-Pugh score. Conclusion The upper gastrointestinal bleeding in patients with liver cirrhosis can be predicted by the diameter of portal vein and spleen vein, assessment of upper gastrointestinal bleeding based on Child-Pugh score should also be taken into account.
目的:研究Child-Pugh分级对失代偿期肝硬化预后的预测价值。方法:对34例死于失代偿期肝硬化患者进行回顾性分析,应用Child-Pugh分级对初次入院资料进行评分及分级,并计算初次入院至死亡的时间。结果:Child-Pugh分级A级生存时间56.2±24.7月、B级33.1±10.5月、C级12.6±9.6月;以上消化道出血为主要表现的患者,生存时间相对非出血者低(Plt;0.05)。结论:Child-Pugh分级可做为预测失代偿期肝硬化患者的生存时间的重要的客观指标。而是否伴有上消化道出血对生存时间有较大的影响;上腹部增强CT对失代偿期肝硬化患者有无肝肾分流等侧支循环的评估有助于出血风险的判断。
