Abstract:
Objective To investigate the outcomes of surgery combined with albendazole liposomes in the treatment of advanced hepatic alveolar echinococcosis.Methods This is a retrospective study on 71 patients with advanced hepatic alveolar echinococcosis treated from January 2002 to November 2013.The patients were divided into 4 groups according to the surgical methods and whether surgery was combined with albendazole liposomes.Results On follow-up from 5 ~ 44 months,the mortality rates for the volume-reduction surgery group was 82.3%,the volume-reduction surgery + albendazole group 52.3%,the radical operation group 28.5%,and the radical operation + albendazole group 21.1%.The mortality rate of the radical operation + albendazole group,when compared with the radical operation group and the volume-reduction surgery + albendazole group was significantly different (P < 0.05).The mortality rate of the radical operation group,when compared with the volume-reduction surgery + albendazole group showed no significant difference (P > 0.05).The mortality rate of the volume-reduction surgery group,when compared with the volume-reduction surgery + albendazole group,the radical operation group,and the radical operation + albendazole group was significantly different (P < 0.05).Conclusions The treatment of radical operation combined with albendazole liposomes for advanced hepatic alveolar echinococcosis reduced recurrence,improved quality of life and prolonged survival.It is a feasible method to treat these patients.
