Objective To investigate the factors affecting the efficacy,safety and prognosis of R0 resection in hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)patients with portal hypertension(PH).Methods Clinical data of 600 patients with cirrhosis related HCC undergoing hepatectomy at the Dept.of Hepatobiliary Surgery were studied retrospectively.According to whether the patients with portal hypertension or not,they were divided into PH group and non PH group.Postoperative complications and mortality were compared between the two groups.Kaplan-Meier was used to analyze influencing factors of patients with R0 postoperative survival.Cox regression risk model was used to analyze the risk factors.Results The operative mortality of PH group and non PH group was 3.6%(3/84)and 0.5%(1/216),respectively.The difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).The incidence of postoperative complications in PH group was 22.6%,significantly higher than 9.7% in non PH group(P<0.05),especially the incidence rate of the liver related complications(ascites>800 ml/d,hepatic insufficiency and liver failure).Alcoholism,with PH,AFP ≥20 ng/ml,tumor size>5cm and non-solitary type HCC(all P<0.05) were important factors for overall survival.Cox regression analysis showed that tumor size>5cm and non-solitary type HCC were independent predictors for survival.Conclusion PH combined with HCC patients after R0 resection can significantly increase the incidence of complications related to liver disease and mortality,tumor size >5cm and non-isolated HCC are the risk factors for long-term survival of patients.

Objective To investigate the efficacy of precise hemihepatectomy guided by middle hepatic vein(MHV),and to study the value of preoperative hepatic vein evaluation.Methods The clinical data of 68 patients who received hemihepatectomy at the Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital from October 2007 to September 2009were prospectively studied.Of the 68 patients,30 received precise hemihepatectomy guided by MHV(precise group)and 38 received anatomical hemihepatectomy(traditional group).The types of hepatic vein in the precise group were evaluated and classified preoperatively.The operation time,operative blood loss,volume of blood transfusion,liver function,morbidity and length of hospital stay of the 2 groups were compared.All data were analyzed using the t test,rank sum test,chi-square test and Fisher exact probability.Results According to the Nakamura's classification,there were 17(57%)patients with type Ⅰ,8(27%)with type Ⅱ and 5(16%)with type Ⅲ;according to the Kawasaki's classification,there were 11 patients with type Ⅰ(37%)and 19 with type Ⅱ(63%).There were 13 patients received right hepatectomy with MHV preservation,15 received left hepatectomy with MHV preservation,1 received right hepatectomy without MHV preservation and 1 received left hepatectomy without MHV preservation.There were no significant difference in the volume of operative blood loss and blood transfusion,level of alanine transaminase,total bilirubin,cholinesterase at postoperative day 3,total length of hospital stay and length of postoperative hospital stay between the 2 groups(t = 1.07,0.92,0.07,0.21,0.63,0.63,0.75,P ＞ 0.05).The operation time,levels of albumin at postoperative day 3 and complication rate were (342 ± 113)minutes,(35 ±3)g/L and 40%(12/30)in the precise group,and(270 ±73)minutes,(33 ±3)g/Land 66%(25/38)in the traditional group,respectively,with significant differences between the 2 groups(t =2.79,2.19;x2 =4.49,P＜0.05).The positive rates of the resection margin were 5%(1/19)in the precise group and 35%(8/23)in the traditional group,there was a significant difference between the 2 groups(P ＜0.05).ConclusionPreoperative hepatic vein evaluation and precise hemihepateetomy guided by MHV can preserve the functional liver tissues with venous drainage,achieve adequate tumor-free resection margin and reduce the postoperative complication rate.

Objective To evaluate the safety and clinical efficacy of laparoscopic hepatectomy in the treatment of hepatic hemangioma.Methods Clinical data of 58 patients with hepatic hemangioma who underwent laparoscopic hepatectomy in Hai'an People's Hospital Affiliated to Nantong University from January 2010 to January 2018 were retrospectively analyzed.The informed consents of all patients were obtained and the local ethical committee approval was received.Among 58 patients,22 cases were male and 36 female,aged from 33 to 68 years with a median age of 48 years.5 patients were diagnosed with multiple hepatic hemangiomas and 53 cases with single hepatic hemangioma.The diameter of hemangioma was 6-19 cm,and located at liver segments Ⅱ-Ⅵ.Laparoscopic non-anatomical or anatomical hepatectomy were performed in the patients.The intraoperative status and prognosis were analyzed.Results One case was converted to open surgery,and the remaining 57 cases underwent laparoscopic hepatectomy successfully.Anatomical hepatectomy was performed in 24 cases including 15 cases left lateral lobectomy,3 left hemihepatectomy,2 right hemihepatectomy and 4 segmental hepatectomy.Non-anatomical hepatectomy was performed in 33 cases.The median operation time was 176 (107-244) min and the intraoperative blood loss was 372 (190-553) ml.No perioperative death,postoperative complication,such as massive intra-abdominal hemorrhage,bile leakage and liver failure,was observed.The average postoperative length of hospital stay was (7.1±2.3) d.Hepatic cavernous hemangioma was confirmed by postoperative pathological examination.No hemangioma recurrence was observed during the follow-up.Conclusions Laparoscopic hepatectomy is a safe,feasible and efficacious treatment for hepatic hemangioma,which possesses the advantages of rapid recovery and small incision,etc.
