Background

The impact of intraoperative blood transfusion (IBT) on outcomes following intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (IHCC) resection remains to be ascertained.

Methods

All consecutive IHCC resected were analyzed. A first cohort (n = 569) was used for investigating short-term outcomes (morbidity and mortality). A second cohort (n = 522) excluding patients dead within 90 days of surgery was analyzed for exploring overall survival (OS) and disease free survival (DFS). Patients who received IBT were compared to those who did not, after using a propensity score matching (PSM) method.

Results

Among 569 patients, 90-day morbidity and mortality rates were 47% (n = 269) and 8% (n = 47). After PSM, 208 patients were matched. There was an association between IBT and increased overall morbidity and severe morbidity (p = 0.010). However, IBT did not impact 90-day mortality rate (p > 0.999). Regarding long-term outcomes analysis in the second cohort (n = 522), 5-year OS and DFS rates were 39% and 25%. Using PSM, 196 patients were matched and no association between IBT and OS or DFS was found (p = 0.333 and p = 0.491).

Conclusions

IBT is associated with an increased risk of morbidity but does not impact on long-term outcomes. Need for IBT should be considered as a surrogate of advanced disease requiring complex resection. Still, restricted transfusion policy should remain advocated for IHCC resection.  相似文献

Background

Portal hypertension (PHTN) increases the risk of non-hepatic surgery in cirrhotic patients. This first systematic review analyzes the place of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) in preparation for non-hepatic surgery in such patients.

Methods

Medline, EMBASE, and Scopus databases were searched from 1990 to 2017 to identify reports on outcomes of non-hepatic surgery in cirrhotic patients with PHTN prepared by TIPS. Feasibility of TIPS and the planned surgery, and the short- and long-term outcomes of the latter were assessed.

Results

Nineteen studies (64 patients) were selected. TIPS was indicated for past history of variceal bleeding and/or ascites in 22 (34%) and 33 (52%) patients, respectively. The planned surgery was gastrointestinal tract cancer in 38 (59%) patients, benign digestive or pelvic surgery in 21 (33%) patients and others in 4 (6%) patients. The TIPS procedure was successful in all, with a nil mortality rate. All patients could be operated within a median delay of 30 days from TIPS (mortality rate?=?8%; overall morbidity rate?=?59.4%). One year overall survival was 80%.

Conclusions

TIPS allows non-hepatic surgery in cirrhotic patients deemed non operable due to PHTN. Further evidence in larger cohort of patients is essential for wider applicability.  相似文献

Background

Western guidelines recommend resection for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in so-called ideal cirrhotic patients with a Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC) stage 0-A tumour. This study compares short-term outcomes following resection between patients defined as ideal and nonideal according to the BCLC guidelines.

Methods

This prospective single-centre open study (ClinicalTrials.govNCT02145013) included all cirrhotic patients with HCC referred for resection from 2014 to 2016. Mortality, morbidity, unresolved liver decompensation, and readmission were measured.

Results

The study population included 65 consecutive patients: 32 (49%) ideal and 33 (51%) nonideal. Ideal and nonideal groups did not differ in mortality (3% vs. 6%; p = 0.57), morbidity (53% vs. 73%; p = 0.10), or unresolved liver decompensation (6% vs. 15%; p = 0.23) at 90 days. The readmission rate was higher in the nonideal (21%) than in the ideal group (3%; p = 0.02).

Conclusion

Straying from the current guidelines for resection in a selected subset of nonideal patients doubled the number of resections performed for treating HCC, with satisfactory short-term outcomes. These results argue for the expansion of the acknowledged BCLC guidelines.  相似文献

Aim

The benefit of prophylactic drainage after uncomplicated hepatectomy remains controversial. The aim of this study was to update the existing evidence on the role of prophylactic drainage following uncomplicated liver resection.

Methods

Cochrane, Medline (Pubmed), and Embase were searched. The Medline search strategy was adopted for all other databases. A grey literature search was performed. Meta-analyses were performed with Review Manager 5.3. Primary outcomes were mortality and ascitic leak, secondary outcomes were infected intra-abdominal collection, chest infection, wound infection of the surgical incision, biliary fistula, and length of stay.

Results

The incidence of ascitic leak was higher in the drained group (Odds Ratio = 3.33 [95% Confidence Interval: 1.66–5.28]). Infected intra-abdominal collections, wound infections, chest infections, biliary fistula, length of stay and mortality were not statistically different between groups.

Conclusions

The routine utilisation of drains after elective uncomplicated liver resection does not translate into a lower incidence of postoperative complications. Therefore, based on the current available evidence, routine abdominal drainage is not recommended in elective uncomplicated hepatectomy.  相似文献

Background

Elective liver resection (LR) in Jehovah’s Witness (JW) patients, for whom transfusion is not an option, involves complex ethical and medical issues and surgical difficulties.

Methods

Consecutive data from a LR program for liver tumors in JWs performed between 2014 and 2017 were retrospectively reviewed. A systematic review of the literature with a pooled analysis was performed.

Results

Ten patients were included (median age = 61 years). None needed preoperative erythropoietin. Tumor biopsy was not performed. Major hepatectomy was performed in 4 patients. The median estimated blood loss was 200 mL. A cell-saver was installed in 2 patients, none received saved blood. The median hemoglobin values before and at the end of surgery were 13.4 g/dL and 12.6 g/dL, respectively (p = 0.04). Nine complications occurred in 4 patients, but no postoperative hemorrhage occurred. In-hospital mortality was nil. Nine studies including 35 patients were identified in the literature; there was reported no mortality and low morbidity. None of the patients were transfused.

Conclusions

By using a variety of blood conservation techniques, the risk/benefit ratio of elective liver resection for liver was maintained in selected adult JW patients. JW faith should not constitute an absolute exclusion from hepatectomy.  相似文献

Objective

This was a systematic review and meta-analysis to compare outcomes between patients undergoing simultaneous or delayed hepatectomy for synchronous colorectal liver metastases.

Background

The optimal strategy for treating liver disease among patients with resectable synchronous colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) is unclear. Simultaneous resection of primary tumour and liver metastases may improve patient experience by reducing the number of interventions. However, there are concerns of increased morbidity compared to delayed resections.

Methods

A systematic literature search was performed using EMBASE, Medline, Cochrane library and Google scholar databases. Meta-analyses were performed using both random-effects and fixed-effect models. Publication and patient selection bias were assessed with funnel plots and sensitivity analysis.

Results

Thirty studies including 5300 patients were identified. There were no statistically significant differences in parameters relating to safety and efficacy between the simultaneous and delayed hepatectomy cohorts. Patients undergoing delayed surgery were more likely to have bilobar disease or undergo major hepatectomy. The average length of hospital stay was six days shorter with simultaneous approach [MD = ?6.27 (95% CI: ?8.20, ?4.34), p < 0.001]. Long term survival was similar for the two approaches [HR = 0.97 (95%CI: 0.88, 1.08), p = 0.601].

Conclusion

In selected patients, simultaneous resection of liver metastases with colorectal resection is associated with shorter hospital stay compared to delayed resections, without adversely affecting perioperative morbidity or long-term survival.  相似文献

Background

There are two philosophical approaches to planning liver resection for malignancy: one strives towards zero postoperative mortality by stringent selection of candidates, thus inherently limiting patients selected; the other, accepts a low yet definite postoperative mortality rate, and offers surgery to all those with potential gain in survival. The aim of this study was to retrospectively analyse an alternative and evolving strategy, and its impact on short-term outcomes.

Method

3118 consecutive hepatectomies performed in 2627 patients over 3 decades (1980–2011) were analysed. Patient demographics, tumour characteristics, operative details, and postoperative outcomes were analysed.

Results

1528 patients (58%) were male. Colorectal liver metastases (1221 patients, 47%) and hepatocellular carcinoma (584 patients, 22%) were the most common diagnoses. Anatomical resections were performed in 2045 (66%), some form of vascular clamping was used in 2385 (72%), and blood transfusion was required in 1130 (36%) patients. Use of preoperative techniques to increase feasibility and safety of complex liver resections allowed expansion of indications to include sicker patients with larger tumours in the later period of the study. Overall morbidity and mortality rates were 31% and 3% respectively. During the first vs. second half of the study period the postoperative morbidity and mortality were 19% vs. 36% (p < 0.001) and 2% vs. 4% (p = 0.006) respectively.

Conclusion

With increasing experience, more patients were accepted for complex hepatectomies. However, there was a definite yet contained increase in postoperative morbidity and mortality.  相似文献

Background

Limited studies reported the rate and clinical impact of peridevice leaks (PDL) after percutaneous left atrial appendage closure (LAAC).

Methods

All consecutive patients with a nonvalvular atrial fibrillation admitted for LAAC between November 2011 and October 2016 were prospectively enrolled. The follow-up included clinical, transesophageal echocardiography, and/or cardiac computed tomography angiogram (CCTA). PDL was defined by the presence of contrast within the left atrial appendage on CCTA, and Major Adverse Cardiac Event (MACE) included stroke, device-related thrombosis, and cardiovascular death.

Results

Overall, 77 patients (mean CHA2DS2-VASc score = 4.4 ± 1.5 and mean HAS-BLED = 3.4 ± 1.1) were implanted using Amplatzer Cardiac Plug (n = 24), Amulet (n = 37), or Watchman devices (n = 16). Indications were stroke recurrence despite adequate oral anticoagulation (OAC, n = 6) or contraindication to long-term OAC (n = 71). From 3-month to 12-month CCTA follow-up, the PDL rate decreased from 68.5% to 56.7% (P = 0.02), without any difference between the various devices. Patients with PDL were more often in permanent atrial fibrillation, and had a larger landing zone diameter, a lower ratio of device compression, and a more frequent off-axis position of the device. A device compression ratio < 10% was the only parameter associated with PDL occurrence. During follow-up (median 236 days) the MACE rate was 9.1%, with no statistically significant difference between patients with vs without PDL (12% vs 4.3%, P = 0.3).

Conclusions

The PDL rate detected by CCTA after LAAC was high, especially in cases with a low device compression ratio (< 10%), but decreased over time. The incidence of MACE was quantitatively greater with PDL, but the difference was not statistically significant. Larger studies are needed to determine the clinical importance of PDL.  相似文献

Aim

To evaluate the indications, timing and results of liver transplantation in patients affected by hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT), by undertaking a systematic review of the current literature.

Methods

Electronic bibliographical databases were searched on MEDLINE and Pubmed according to the PRISMA criteria. A total of 58 articles were initially found, 11 have been excluded because of single center series later included in the European Liver transplant Registry (ELTR), already reported in this study. Thirty-eight articles have been excluded because they did not report specifically new cases of liver transplantation for hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia. Finally 9 articles were included in the analysis.

Results

A total of 56 patients who underwent liver transplantation for HHT are present in the English literature. One additional patient is presented in this article, for a total of 57 patients worldwide. To date, the most consistent published series is the one of the ELTR, including patients from 15 liver transplantation centers in the period 1985–2003 with a mean follow-up of 69 months. Ten-year patient and graft survival is 82.5%

Conclusion

Liver transplantation should be considered as a radical but definitive treatment option in patients affected by HHT with liver or cardiac involvement not responsive to medical treatment.  相似文献

Plasma levels of norepinephrine (NE), epinephrine (E), immunoreactive insulin (IRI), and glucose were measured in six healthy volunteers after glucose consumption and in six volunteers after a water solution. Ingestion of the glucose (100 g) solution significantly decreased E levels from 46.7 +/- 8.0 to 20.8 +/- 1.9 pg/mL (P less than 0.01). Three hours after the glucose ingestion, plasma E levels nearly returned to basal values. Plasma IRI and glucose levels peaked at 45 minutes after glucose consumption (P less than 0.01), then declined toward basal values. Plasma NE levels were unaffected by glucose consumption. There were no changes in glucose, IRI, NE, or E levels in the control group. These results suggest that E behaves as a counter-regulatory hormone to insulin under stimulation by glucose.  相似文献

Background

Indications for splenectomy (SP) during whole liver transplantation (LT) remain controversial and SP is often avoided because of common complications. We aimed to evaluate specific complications of these combined procedures.

Methods

Data were retrospectively analysed. Splenectomy was performed in patients with splenorenal shunt and/or splenic artery aneurysms or hypersplenism. Patients undergoing simultaneous transplantation and splenectomy (LTSP group) were matched to a non-splenectomy group (LT group).

Results

Between 1994 and 2013, we included 47 and 94 patients in LTSP and LT groups, respectively. The LTSP patients had a higher rate of pre-LT portal vein thrombosis (PVT). The LTSP group had a longer operative time and greater blood loss. Mean follow-up was 101 months and 5-year survivals were identical (LTSP 85% vs LT 88%, p = 0.831). Hospital morbidity and rejection incidence were comparable, whereas de novo PVT (34% vs 2%, p < 0.0001) and infection (47% vs 25%, p = 0.014) rates were higher after SP.

Conclusion

Splenectomy during LT is technically demanding and exposes recipients to a higher thrombosis rate, therefore portal vein patency must be specifically assessed postoperatively. In selected recipients, SP can be performed without increased mortality but at the price of worsening outcome as evidenced by greater risk of infection and PVT.  相似文献

Three cases of large multiple coronary aneurysms, situated on both right and left coronary arteries, were seen in three middle-aged adult patients. These patients were hospitalized for myocardial infarction in two cases and for angina pectoris in the third case. On the coronary angiogram, the coronary lesions were quite unusual as there were multiple voluminous aneurysms on both coronary arteries without evidence of atherosclerotic lesions of the remainder of the coronary tree. These lesions did not seem to be congenital or atherosclerotic, and it was postulated that these lesions might have been the sequelae of a mucocutaneous lymph node syndrome although no previous history of this condition could be found in these three patients.  相似文献

BackgroundThis study evaluates the impact of macrovascular venous invasion (MVI) on surgical and survival outcomes of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumours (PNETs).MethodsWe retrospectively reviewed data of 125 patients operated for PNETs. Operative, pathological,and survival outcomes were compared between PNETs with and without MVI.ResultsMacrovascular venous invasion was detected in 25 of 125 PNETs (20%) presenting as tumour thrombi (n = 12) or venous wall invasion (n = 13). MVI was associated with larger tumours, a higher rate of lymph node involvement, less differentiated tumours, and a higher rate of perineural invasion. Resection of PNETS with MVI more often necessitated combined hepatic, venous and multivisceral resections, had a higher rate of intraoperative blood transfusion (p = 0.04) but similar morbidity (44% vs. 42%) and mortality (0 vs. 1%) as PNETs without MVI. PNETs with MVI had a lower median overall survival rate (60 vs. 149 months; p = 0.03). Multivariate analysis revealed that PNETs of the pancreatic head, synchronous liver metastases and higher tumour grade were prognostic factors for overall survival.ConclusionsMVI is found in more advanced PNETs. Resection of PNETs with MVI is characterized by increased transfusion rate and reduced overall survival.  相似文献

Background

Laparoscopic left lateral sectionectomy (LLS) has now become standard practice. However, published series are small and retrospective. The aim was to compare at a national level the use and short-term outcome of laparoscopic and open LLS.

Methods

National hospital discharge databases were screened to identify all adult patients who had undergone elective LLS in France between 2007 and 2012. Outcome measurements included blood transfusion, severe morbidity, mortality and length of hospital stay. The independent influence of the laparoscopic approach on these outcomes was tested overall and after stratifying for the indication (benign condition, primary malignancy, liver metastasis).

Results

Over the 6-year study period, 2198 patients underwent LLS, accounting for 6.9% of all elective liver resections. Some 28.5% of LLS procedures were performed laparoscopically. Among hospitals in which LLS was carried out, 33.2% of procedures were done laparoscopically (median 2 laparoscopic LLS resections per year). The laparoscopic approach was independently associated with a shorter length of hospital stay irrespective of the indication, and a lower transfusion rate in patients with benign condition or primary malignancy.

Conclusion

LLS is seldom performed and the laparoscopic approach has not been adopted widely. The potential benefit of laparoscopic LLS varies according to the indication.  相似文献

Background

The benefit of performing major hepatic resection (MHR) for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in patients with cirrhosis remains controversial because of its high risk of posthepatectomy liver failure (PHLF). This study was conducted to assess the risk of MHR for HCC in patients with cirrhosis.

Methods

Patients with Child-Pugh A or B cirrhosis and HCC who underwent MHR from January 2000 to June 2014 were retrospectively identified. Risk factors for postoperative morbidity and mortality using univariate and multivariate analyses were evaluated.

Results

Seventy patients with Child-Pugh A (93%) and 5 (7%) with Child-Pugh B cirrhosis underwent MHR for HCC. Thirteen (17%) had Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC) stage A, 39 (50%) had BCLC B, and 23 (32%) had BCLC C disease. A perioperative blood transfusion was performed in 18 patients (24%). Ninety-day postoperative mortality was 9% (n=7). Major complications occurred in 16 patients (21%), including PHLF in 9 patients (12%). A multivariate analysis showed that perioperative blood transfusion was the main independent factor associated with mortality (OR= 6.5) and major morbidity (OR=10).

Conclusion

In selected patients with HCC and cirrhosis, MHR is feasible and has acceptable mortality, but careful perioperative management and limiting blood loss are required.  相似文献
