Abstract:
Objective To compare the outcomes of giant hepatic hemangioma undergoing enucleation and hepatectomy and to summarize our experience of surgical management of liver hemangioma.Methods A retrospective study was conducted in patients undergoing giant hepatic hemangioma resection (lager than 10 cm in size) in General Hospital of PLA,during 2006 through 2014.Patients were divided into two groups according to the types of operation.Results Of 145 patients with giant liver hemangioma,81 underwent enucleation and 64 had hepatectomy.The differences of tumor size (12.0 cm vs.15.5 cm,u =3.68,P ＜0.01),time of operation (210 min vs.280 min,u =3.89,P ＜ 0.01) and the ratio of inflow control (81.5％ vs.56.3％,x2 =10.91,P ＜ 0.01) of enucleation and hepatectomy was significant.The difference of intraoperative blood loss (500 ml vs.800 ml,u =1.85,P =0.07) and the postoperative morbidity (8.6％ vs.7.8％,x2=0.03,P =0.86) was not statistically significant.There was no inhospital mortality in both groups.Conclusions Both of enucleation and hepatectomy are effective operative approaches for giant liver hemangioma,patients with liver hemangioma should be prudently chosen for surgery,and the operation type should be individualized with the guidance of precision liver surgery.
