挽救性肝移植治疗肝癌切除术后肿瘤复发

目的 分析挽救性肝移植治疗肝癌切除术后肿瘤复发患者的疗效.方法 2004年1月至2008年12月,单中心376例肝癌患者接受了肝移植,其中36例(9.6 %)为行根治性肿瘤切除术后因肿瘤肝内复发而接受挽救性肝移植者(挽救性肝移植组).挽救性肝移植组中男性29例,女性7例;16例接受右半肝切除,10例接受左半肝切除,其余10例接受不规则肝切除或肝段切除.首次肝切除至行挽救性肝移植的时间为(34.9±16.2)个月(1～63个月).以同期符合米兰标准并接受首次肝移植的147例作为对照组,比较两组受者的术中情况及术后生存情况、肿瘤复发情况等.结果 挽救性移植组术中出血量和输血量明显多于对照组(P＜0.05),手术时间也长于对照组(P＜0.05).随访期间,挽救性肝移植组死亡11例,其中围手术期死亡1例;对照组共死亡36例,其中围手术期死亡3例.两组手术后并发症、肿瘤复发率、受者存活率以及无瘤存活率的差异无统计学意义(P＞0.05).结论 挽救性肝移植虽然较首次肝移植手术难度增加,但不影响患者预后,是根治性肝癌切除术后肿瘤复发患者的有效治疗手段.

Abstract：

Objective To summarize the experience with salvage liver transplantation for patients with recurrent hetaptocellular carcinoma(HCC)after primary liver resection.Methods From 2004 to 2008,376 patients with HCC received liver transplantation in our single center.Among these patients,36 (9.6 %)underwent salvage liver transplantation after primary liver curative resection due to intrahepatic recurrence.There were 29 males and 7 females with the mean age of 46 years old.Sixteen received right lobectomy,10 received left lobectomy and the others received sectionectomy or segmentectomy.As a control group for comparison,we used clinical data of the 147 patients who underwent primary OLT for HCC within Milan Criteria.Results The mean interval between initial liver resection and salvage transplantation was 34.9±16.2 months(1-63 months).Intraoperative bleeding volume,transfusion volume and operative time in the salvage group were significantly different from those in control group (P<0.05).There were no significant difference in post-operative complications,tumor recurrence rate,survival rate and tumor-free survival between these two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion In comparison with primary OLT,although salvage liver transplantation would increase the operation difficulties,it still remains a good option for patients with HCC recurrence after curative resection.
