ObjectiveTo explore the safety and feasibility of surgical treatment of simultaneous multiple primary cancer–hepatocellular carcinoma and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.MethodThe clinical data of one patient with simultaneous multiple primary cancer of hepatocellular carcinoma and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, who treated in the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University in April 2019 was analyzed retrospectively. ResultsThe patient was diagnosed as hepatocellular carcinoma and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma on admission. After MDT in the hospital, the patient underwent anterior right hepatectomy + cholecystectomy and radical resection of esophageal carcinoma in turn. The procedure of anterior right hepatectomy + cholecystectomy was smooth, the duration of the surgery was 270 min, and the total blood loss was 500 mL, and postoperative pathology showed that hepatocellular carcinoma was in grade Ⅱ. The operation process of radical resection of esophageal cancer was smooth too, the duration of the surgery was 176 min, and the total blood loss was 100 mL, and postoperative pathology showed moderately differentiated squamous cell carcinoma. No related surgical complications occurred after the operation. Thirteen months after the operation of liver cancer and 10 months after the operation of esophageal cancer, the patient was generally in good condition, well wound healing, and no clinical recurrence. The follow-up of the patient was continued.ConclusionIn allusion to simultaneous multiple primary cancers, it is safe and feasible to evaluate the location, pathological stage, and general condition of the patient by combining multi-disciplinary diagnosis and treatment and then performing radical operations in turn.
ObjectiveTo summarize experiences of diagnosis and treatment of intraperitoneal mass after associating liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy (ALPPS) in treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).MethodThe clinicopathologic data of a 40 years old case of HCC with intraperitoneal mass after ALPPS in the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University were retrospectively analyzed.ResultsThe patient was admitted to this hospital because of abdominal pain and abdominal distension for 5 d. The intraperitoneal mass was found and its nature was not clear on year 1 after ALPPS on admission. After discussion of multidisciplinary team (MDT), the exploratory laparotomy and abdominal tumor resection were planned to perform. The intraperitoneal mass and appendix were removed, the resected tissues were diagnosed as chronic inflammation and retroperitoneal abscess caused by perforation of suppurative appendicitis, respectively. The anti-infection and symptomatic support treatment were strengthened to perform after operation, the patient discharged after recovery. The patient was followed up so far, the general condition was good, and there was no clinical recurrence.ConclusionsFor patient underwent ALPPS, regular follow-up should be paid attention to. If intraperitoneal mass is found and nature is not clear, MDT discussion should be performed so as to make a more reasonable treatment plan. After exclusion of contraindications, surgical treatment should be carried out to furthest benefit patients.
