Abstract:
ObjectiveTo explore the practicability of combined surgical treatment for the patients with Hepatocellular Carcinoma(HCC) complicated with Portal Hypertension(PH).MethodsThe clinical data of 43 patients withHCCcomplicatedwithsignificantesophagealvaricesandhyperspleniawereanalyzed retrospectively.All patients were diagnosed with esophageal varices and hypersplenia of different degrees, 14 of them had severe esophageal varices, the other 29 patients had moderate esophageal varices.Firstly all patients underwent splenectomy, 18 of them had selective portoazygous devascularization in addition.After that the patients received hepatectomys ,with local excision or segmentectomy as the major operation methods.Results All patients received hepatectomy combined with splenectomy treatment.There was no perioperative mortality, but 12 patients had complications after the surgery.Over seventy percents patients(33/43)accepted regular followup.Among these 33 patients,the 1-year and 3-year survival rates were 90.9％ (30/33) and 63.6％ (21/33)respectively.Eleven patients died of tumor recurrence.Four patients had upper postoperatively gastrointestinal hemorrhage.ConclusionHepatectomy combined with splenectomy didn't increase the mortality in the patients with HCC complicated with PH.The combined surgery might reduce the incidence of severe complications, such as postoperative bleeding.We believe the combined surgical treatment is feasible for this group of the patients.
