Abstract:
Objective To summarize experiences associated with hepatectomy of huge liver neoplasm.Methods Two hundred and sixty six consecutive cases of huge liver neoplasm undergoing hepatectomy from January 1987 to December 2005 at Chinese PLA General Hospital were analized retrospectively based on the clinical data.Results There were 174 males and 92 females with the average age of(44.8 ± 12.2)years(range 7-76 yrs).Among them,93 cases were with benign neoplasms.The maximum diameter of tumors was 30 cm and hemangioma accounted for 86.0%(80 cases).The other 173 cases were huge liver malignant neoplasms with the maximum diameter of 33 cm,hepatocellular carcinoma accounted for 73.4%(127 cases).The average diameter of all tumors was(14.7 ±4.0)cm(range 10.2-33.0 cm).HBsAg(+)was found in 40.49% of cases.Numbers of resected segments averaged(3.3 ±1.2)in benign cases and(3.1 ±1.2)in malignant ones without significant difference between the two groups(t=1.710,P=0.310).Postoperative complications occurred in 17.29% of cases and the hospital mortality was 0.75%.The postoperative 1-,3-and 5-year survival rates in patients with malignant liver tumors were 58.3%,39.7% and 27.5%,respectively.Conclusions Hepatectomy of huge liver benign and malignant neoplasms can be performed safely with low morbidity and mortality,provided that it is carried out with skillful surgical expertise and optimized perioperative management.
