The biliary branches of the caudate lobe (B1) join the right hepatic duct, the left hepatic duct, the confluence of these
ducts, and/or the right posterior segmental bile duct. Therefore, in the preoperative staging of biliary tract carcinoma it
is important to delineate the anatomy of B1 and the extent of cancer spread into B1. Tube cholangiography through percutaneous
transhepatic biliary drainage or selective cholangiography by percutaneous transhepatic cholangioscopy enables us to obtain
fine images of B1. We have developed cholangiography in the cephalad anterior oblique position to visualize B1 more clearly
and distinctly. Four separate types of biliary branches are identified in the caudate lobe: (1) A duct running from the cranial
portion of the right caudate lobe along the inferior vena cava to the hepatic hilus (B1r); (2) a duct from the cranial portion
of the left caudate lobe to the hepatic hilus (B1ls); (3) a duct from the left lateral part of the left caudate lobe to the
hepatic hilus (B1li); and (4) a duct from the caudate process to the hepatic hilus (B1c). The findings of the root of B1 in
resected patients with biliary tract carcinoma were classified into four groups: not stenotic, short segmental stenosis, long
segmental stenosis, and poorly imaged. A study of 64 branches of B1 in 42 resected patients with biliary tract cancer revealed
carcinoma invasion in or near the root of B1 in all patients with poorly imaged or long segmental stenosis of B1, and in 33%
of those with short segmental stenosis of B1. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: We present our experiences with infraportal bile duct of the caudate lobe (B1) and discuss surgical implications of this rare variation. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA: Although various authors have investigated biliary anatomy at the hepatic hilum, an infraportal B1 (joining the hepatic duct caudally to the transverse portion of the left portal vein) has not been reported. METHODS: Between January 1981 and December 2005, 334 patients underwent hepatectomy combined with caudate lobectomy for perihilar cholangiocarcinoma. Four of them (1.2%) had infraportal B1 and were investigated clinicoanatomically. RESULTS: All infraportal B1 were B1l, draining Spiegel's lobe; no infraportal B1r (draining the paracaval portion) or B1c ducts (draining the caudate process) were found. The infraportal B1l joined the common hepatic duct or the left hepatic duct. Three patients underwent right trisectionectomy with caudate lobectomy; for one, in whom preoperative diagnosis was possible, combined portal vein resection and reconstruction were performed before caudate lobectomy to resect the caudate lobe en bloc without division of infraportal B1. For the other 2 patients, the infraportal B1 was divided to preserve the portal vein, and then the caudate lobe was resected en bloc. The fourth patient underwent right hepatectomy with right caudate lobectomy; the cut end of the infraportal B1 showed no cancer by frozen section, so the bile duct was ligated and divided to preserve the left caudate lobe. CONCLUSION: Infraportal B1 can cause difficulties in performing right-sided hepatectomy with caudate lobectomy or harvesting the left side of the liver with the left caudate lobe for transplantation. Hepatobiliary and transplant surgeons should carefully evaluate biliary anatomy at the hepatic hilum, keeping this variation in mind. 相似文献

Recently we have been performing S4a + S5 with total resection of the caudate lobe (SI) by using a dome-like dissection along
the root of the middle hepatic vein at the pinnacle, which we refer to as the Taj Mahal liver parenchymal resection, for carcinoma
of the biliary tract. This procedure offers the following advantages: (1) It allows total resection of the caudate lobe, including
the paracaval portion (S9), and (2) because the cut surface of the liver is large, it allows intrahepatic jejunostomy to be
performed more easily with a good field of view. The indications for this procedure include hilar bile duct carcinoma, gallbladder
carcinoma, and choledochal cyst (type IVA). Because of the high rate of hilar liver parenchyma and caudate lobe invasion associated
with hilar bile duct carcinoma, the liver must be resected. The Taj Mahal procedure is indicated in cases where extended liver
resection is impossible. The dissection limits of this procedure are, on the left side, the B2 + 3 bifurcation at the right
margin of the umbilical portion of the portal vein and, on the right side, the B8 of the anterior branch and the B6+7 bifurcation
of the right posterior branch. This procedure could also be described as a reduced form of extended right hepatectomy and
extended left hepatectomy. For gallbladder carcinoma, this procedure is indicated to ensure an adequate surgical margin and
eradicate transvenous liver metastasis, particularly in cases of pT2 lesions. Hilar and caudate lobe invasion also occurs
in liver bed-type gallbladder carcinoma, and bile duct resection and caudate lobe resection are required for the surgery to
be curative. We performed this procedure in four cases of hilar bile duct carcinoma, five cases of gallbladder carcinoma,
and one case each of choledochal cyst (type IVA) with carcinoma of the bile duct and gallbladder adenomyomatosis. Curative
resection was possible in all except the patient with adenomyomatosis, and all of the patients are alive and recurrence free
10 to 37 months postoperatively. This procedure, in addition to preserving liver function, provides a wide field of view and
facilitates reconstruction of multiple intrahepatic bile ducts. Thus it can be said to be a curative operation not only in
patients considered high risk but also in those whose hilar bile duct carcinoma is limited to the bifurcation area (Bismuth
type IIIa and IIIb) and in gallbladder carcinoma up to pT2 with slight extension on the hepatic side.

The cholangiograms obtained through percutaneous transhepatic cholangioscopy (PTCS) were studied for the purpose of clarifying radiographic anatomy of confluence of the bile ducts of the caudate lobe and the main trunks at the hepatic hilum. PTCS was performed on a total of 112 patients at our department, January, 1979 through December, 1984. Among them 60 cases without lesions in the hepatic hilum were used for this study. Four types of the bile duct of the caudate lobe were distinguished by cholangiography in the 60 cases: 1) A duct ran from the cranial portion of the right caudate lobe along the inferior vena cava to the hepatic hilum in 53 (Blr); 2) A duct ran from the cranial portion of the left caudate lobe to the hepatic hilum in 50 (Blls); 3) A duct ran from the left lateral part of the left caudate lobe to the hepatic hilum in 59 (Blli) and 4) A duct from the caudate process to the hepatic hilum in 42 (Blc). We found that cholangiogram following percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage or selective cholangiogram using the PTCS make an accurate identification of the bile duct of the caudate lobe possible. 相似文献

Knowledge of the anatomy of the portal system is essential for safe liver resection. We report a very rare anatomic anomaly of the portal system in a living liver donor. A 24-year-old female living liver donor was found to have anomalies of the portal system on preoperative contrast-enhanced computed tomography. The ventral branch of the right anterior segment arose from the transverse portion of the left portal vein. The gallbladder and round ligament were positioned normally. Intraoperative cholangiography for evaluation of biliary anatomy revealed very low confluence of the right and left hepatic ducts. All the bile ducts from the right lobe merged into the right hepatic duct. A right lobe graft was performed, including the ventral area of the right anterior segment. The portal branch of the ventral area of the right anterior segment could be transected extrahepatically. In the recipient operation, each of the right main portal branches, including the right posterior segment branch and the dorsal branch of the right anterior segment, and the ventral branch of the right anterior segment, were anastomosed to the right and left branches of the portal vein, respectively, of the recipient. The transected right hepatic duct of the graft was anastomosed with the recipient's common hepatic duct. Sixteen years after the liver transplant, the recipient continues to do well and has good portal flow. 相似文献

Very large right-sided liver tumors may grow up to the base of the umbilical fissure and involve the left hepatic duct and can occasionally reach the bile duct confluence. This kind of involvement has often been considered a contraindication to resection. We report a patient who presented with a large hepatic metastasis from colorectal cancer that reached the umbilical fissure and involved the left hepatic duct just above the bile duct confluence. An extended right hepatectomy including complete resection of caudate lobe was performed. We resected the left and common hepatic ducts, as well as both the entire hepatic and the proximal third of common bile duct. A long jejunal limb Roux-en-Y (45 cm) single-layer left intrahepatic hepaticojejunostomy was constructed. She is still well 14 months postoperatively. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of such a procedure employed for the treatment of a liver metastasis from colorectal cancer. Extended right hepatectomy including complete caudate lobe resection can be feasible even when the majority of the extrahepatic biliary system needs to be resected. Our approach probably offers the only chance to prevent early death from liver failure in these patients. 相似文献

Diagnostic value of the cholangiography was studied for carcinoma of the biliary tract involving the hepatic hilus, and special attention was paid on the cholangiogram of the bile duct branches (B1) of the caudate lobe. Cholangiograms of B1 were compared with pathologic findings in 42 (27 bile duct carcinomas, 15 gallbladder carcinomas) of 43 cases of biliary tract carcinomas. Sixty-four of B1 in the 42 cases could be studied radiologically and histopathologically. The findings of the root of B1 were classified into 4 groups: group A, not stenotic; group B, short segmental stenosis; group C, long segmental stenosis and group D, poorly imaged. Carcinoma invasion was found in 6 of 18 of group B, and in 9 of 16 of group C. Carcinoma was confirmed near the root of B1 in the remaining 7 of the 16 group C. Carcinoma invasion was found in 20 of 21 of group D, and invasion was suspected in the remaining one. Carcinomas were found in the root of B1 in all cases of poorly imaged or long segmental stenosis of B1, and in 33% of short segmental stenosis of B1. Therefore caudate lobe resection should be performed for carcinoma of the biliary tract involving the hepatic hilus. 相似文献

A case of superficially-spreading carcinoma of the hepatic hilus is presented. Percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage was performed to alleviate jaundice and to evaluate the biliary system. A nodular tumor originating in the upper part of the common hepatic duct was found to be invading the confluence of the right and left hepatic ducts. Extensive superficial spread was observed in the proximal portion of the right anterior superior, right anterior inferior, right posterior superior, right posterior inferior, and caudate bile duct branches. Preoperative surgical planning was carried out on the basis of an evaluation of the findings of ultrasonography, computed tomography, percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography, and percutaneous transhepatic cholangioscopy. Absolute curative surgery, which included right hepatic lobectomy with total caudate lobectomy and bile duct resection, was performed. Bilioenteric continuity was reestablished with a Roux-en-Y jejunal loop. The histological diagnosis was well-differentiated tubular adenocarcinoma of the common hepatic duct. Postoperative recovery was very good; the patient has now enjoyed a good active social life for the past 4 years and 10 months, with no signs of recurrence. In this case report, we discuss the precise preoperative diagnosis and rational surgical treatment for carcinoma of the hepatic hilus with superficial spread. 相似文献

A 50-year-old man with primary biliary cirrhosis underwent living-donor liver transplantation (LDLT) using a graft of a left
hemiliver with a left caudate lobe and duct-to-duct hepaticocholedochostomy. Postoperative bile leakage necessitated percutaneous
drainage 22 days after LDLT. The patient presented to our hospital 205 days after the LDLT with abdominal distension and fever.
Computed tomography showed ascites and a diffusely mottled pattern in the graft. The caudate lobe was swollen, and its bile
ducts were dilated. The inferior vena cava was forced to the right by the swollen caudate lobe, and the root of the hepatic
vein was stretched. The hepatic vein was not contrasted. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiography showed a biliary anastomotic
stricture. Based on these findings, we diagnosed a severe outflow block of the hepatic vein and biliary anastomotic stricture.
We performed balloon dilation of the biliary anastomosis and implanted a metallic stent in the hepatic vein. Thereafter, his
clinical symptoms improved dramatically. 相似文献

A case of cholangiocellular carcinoma, involving the hepatic hilus, radically resected by central hepatic bisegmentectomy
with en bloc resection of the caudate lobe and extrahepatic bile duct is presented. Preoperative surgical planning was carried
out on the basis of an evaluation of the findings of ultrasonography, computed tomography, angiography, percutaneous transhepatic
portography, and tube cholangiography. The operation lasted for 16 h and 15 min, with 5700 g blood loss. Postoperative recovery
was very good and the patient has now been well for 26 months after surgery. Although the surgical technique of central hepatic
bisegmentectomy with en bloc resection of the caudate lobe and extrahepatic bile duct is very difficult, this procedure should
be indicated for selected cases of cholangiocellular carcinoma involving the hepatic hilus. 相似文献

A case of polypoid carcinoma of the left hepatic duct in 50-year-old male was reported. Extended left hepatic lobectomy with total caudate lobectomy and resection of the right hepatic duct were performed because the tumor involved the right hepatic duct and bile duct branches of caudate lobe, medial and lateral segment. Papillary growth of the tumor was diagnosed definitely by percutaneous transhepatic cholangioscopy (PTCS) and computed tomography. The tumor infiltrated the liver parenchyma of medial segment and compressed the middle hepatic vein. These findings were revealed by selective middle hepatic venography preoperatively. 相似文献

Isolated caudate lobectomy by anterior approach for hepatocellular carcinoma originating in the paracaval portion of the caudate lobe 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

We aimed to assess isolated caudate lobectomy by the anterior approach for the treatment of large hepatocellular carcinomas
originating in the paracaval portion of the caudate lobe. The surgical procedures consisted of ligation and dissection of
the caudate branch of the portal vein and short hepatic veins from the right side of the hepatic hilum; liver resection cranially
from the right side of the process portion; ligation and dissection of the short hepatic veins from the left side; hepatic
resection between the lateral segment and Spiegel lobe; and, finally, dissection of the liver at the right of the Cantlie
line, reaching the tumor in the paracaval portion of the caudate lobe. The important point in this procedure was the appropriate
management of the short hepatic veins, the branches of the hepatic vein, and the glisson's vessels of the paracaval portion.
The operative times for the three patients reported here were 430, 355, and 575 min, with blood loss of 1100, 1180, and 2000
ml, respectively. The duration of the operation was short and blood loss was minimal; severe complications were not observed.
Complete recovery of liver function after this surgery tended to be slow. Early recurrence was observed during long-term follow-up.
This procedure is considered to be a safe method, with optimal surgical vision for caudate lobe tumors of a relatively large
size. However, adjuvant therapy to prevent recurrence is required.

We report an extremely rare case of metastatic biliary polypoid thrombus with hepatic metastases from renal cell carcinoma.
A 74-year-old man was admitted with a low-grade fever and obstruction of the left hepatic duct. He had undergone left nephrectomy
17 years previously due to a diagnosis of renal cell carcinoma. A preoperative diagnosis of left hepatic duct carcinoma was
made, and a left lobectomy and left caudate lobectomy with right biliary anastomosis of jejunal loop were performed. The resected
specimen showed a polypoid mass in the left hepatic duct with metastases in the caudate lobe, and a histological examination
revealed both tumors to be clear cell-type renal cell carcinoma. The mechanism of biliary metastatic thrombus formation was
speculated to be as follows: caudate lobe metastases invade the adjacent bile ducts, and a tumor fragment in the bile duct
then becomes implanted in the intraluminal left hepatic duct, thus leading to the growth of the biliary polypoid thrombus.

This report presents a case of a left hepatectomy and a caudate lobectomy combined resection of the ventral segment of the
right anterior sector for hilar cholangiocarcinoma using percutaneous transhepatic portal vein embolization (PVE). The patient
was a 44-year-old man admitted to a local hospital with obstructive jaundice. He was diagnosed to have hilar cholangiocarcinoma
and was referred to the hospital for further treatment. Cholangiography revealed stenosis of the left hepatic duct and the
hilar bile ducts. The dorsal branch of the right anterior sector joined the right posterior branch and the tumor did not invade
to the confluence of these branches. Arteriography and portography reconstructed by multidetector-raw computed tomography
revealed the ventral branches of the right anterior sector, which separately diverged from the other right anterior branches.
It was therefore necessary to perform a left hepatectomy and caudate lobectomy combined resection of the ventral segment of
the right anterior sector to completely remove the tumor. Portal vein embolization was thus performed on the left portal vein
and the ventral branches of the right anterior sector. Intraoperatively, when the hepatic artery was temporally clamped, the
demarcation between the ventral segment and the dorsal segment of the right anterior sector could be clearly visualized. The
planned surgery was performed safely. This case demonstrates that the utilization of PVE is useful for a difficult and intricate
hepatectomy, which requires an accurate identification of a hepatic subsegment. 相似文献
