  • Selection of Appropriate Graft Directed by Venous Drainage Types of Median Hepatic Lobe in Adult-to-Adult Living Donor Liver Transplantation

    Objective To discuss venous drainage types of median hepatic lobe and their guiding significances on the selection of grafts. Methods Between April 2005 and March 2009, 109 potential living donors underwent 3-dimensional reconstruction of computed tomography (CT) and the volume of graft was determined in the center of organ transplantation of Ruijin Hospital. The venous drainage types of median hepatic lobe of each donor were analyzed by the computer-based liver operation-planning system in detail to assign middle hepatic vein (MHV) types according to Marcos classification and venous types of Ⅳb segment according to Nakamura classification. Results The branching pattern of MHV was divided into 3 types: Type Ⅰ and Ⅱwere relatively more accounting for 44.0% (48/109), 37.6% (41/109), and type Ⅲ was fewest 〔18.3% (20/109)〕. There were no significant differences in volume of whole liver, volume of left liver or left liver/total liver volume ratio among various types of MHV of the donor (Pgt;0.05). Ⅳb vein was also divided into 3 types: The most common was type Ⅰ, accounting for 72.4% (79/109); Type Ⅱ 〔12.8% (14/109)〕, type Ⅲ 〔14.7% (16/109)〕 were relatively fewer. At last, 37 donors provided right liver, for Marcos Ⅰ, Ⅱ, and Ⅲ type of donors, donors remained with MHV was 12/17, 8/11, and 5/9; for Nakamura Ⅰ, Ⅱ, and Ⅲ type of donors, those number were 16/26, 4/6, and 5/5. Conclusion In adult-to-adult living donor liver transplantation, there may be great significances in accordance with Marcos and Nakamura typing results to harvest right lobe liver graft with or without MHV.
