2.Clinical staging and treatment strategy for hepatocellular carcinoma
International Journal of Surgery 2015;42(7):479-483,封4
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the fifth most common cancer and the second leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide.Increase in incidence has been shown in HCC over the last few years and more than half of the cases were reported in China,where hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is the main etiologic factor.Heterogeneity in HCC's distribution worldwide and difference in etiology may result in a more complicated issue about prognosis-estimation and choosing of treatment options for HCC patients.In the past decade,there have been several clinical staging systems developed in terms of relevant prognostic factors.Among them,the Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC) and the Hong Kong Liver Cancer (HKLC) staging system are the only two classifications that link prognostic classification to treatment indications.In this review,we mainly focus on the application of BCLC and HKLC staging systems in guiding decision making for HCC,the respective advantages and disadvantages of each classification,and the future perspective of our own prediction model in which some new clinical factors will be integrated.

Cancer cells can secrete programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) to bind with inhibitory regulatory protein of programmed death 1 (PD-1) which lies on T-cell lymphocyte.Consequently,the activity of the T cells reduces,and the apoptosis cells increase.It's one of the pathways of newly discovered tumor immune escape.Primary hepatic cancer is one of the common malignant tumors of digestive system and closely related to viral hepatitis B in China.PD-1/PD-L1 pathway plays an important role in tumorigenesis and development of primary liver cancer.In this paper,the research updates of PD-1/PD-L1 in primary hepatic carcinoma were summarized.

Objective To compare the primary treatment efficacy of radiofrequency ablation and surgical resection in patients with solitary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) which the diameter is ≤5 cm.Methods Databases were searched for comparative studies on radiofrequency ablatiom vs surgical resection published from 2005 to 2012.A Meta-analysis was performed using a randomized or fixed effect model to compare the treatment efficacy between radiofrequency ablatiom and surgical resection.Results Five studies fulfilled the criteria and were included.For HCC patients whose single tumors' diameter is ≤5 cm,radiofrequency ablation was equivalent to surgical resection for 1-,3-and 5-year overall survivals (P > 0.05).However,surgical resection was superior to radiofrequency ablation in 1-,3-and 5-year disease-free survivals and there' s significant difference (P < 0.05).Higher local recurrence rate was associated with radiofrequency ablation than surgical resection.Conclusions For HCC patients whose single tumors' diameter is ≤5 cm,radiofrequency ablation can achieve comparable overall survival as surgical resection,though with higher recurrence rate and lower disease-free survival.

Objective To study the classification, its incidence and some related factors of neurological complications after liver transplantation.Methods 166 cases of orthotopic liver transplantation were retrospectively studied. The classification and the incidence of the neurological complications were analyzed. In addition, the patients were divided into two groups, according to whether they suffered from neurological complications or not, to study the difference of related factors, which included gender, age, primary disease, type of operation procedure, operation time, non-hepatic time, ischemia time of donor liver, blood loss, blood infusion and immunosuppressive regimen.Results Neurological complications occurred in 28 cases (32 times), which included encephalopathy, seizure, stroke, infection of central nervous system, serious para-pyramidal syndrome and peripheral neuropathy. The total incidence was 16.9 %. Between the neurological complication group and non-neurological-complication group, no difference was found in gender, age, type of operation procedure, operation time, non-hepatic time, ischemia time of donor liver, blood loss, blood infusion and immunosuppressive regimen, but the neurological complications were closely related with primary diseases. The incidence of neurological complications was 30 % in acute liver failure, followed by post-hepatitis B liver cirrhosis (21 %), primary liver carcinoma (17.8 %), Wilson disease (16.7 %) and primary biliary liver cirrhosis (12.5 %). Interestingly as a sole complication disease, the incidence of encephalopathy in acute liver failure was 15 %, that was much higher than that in other primary disease. So was the peripheral neuropathy, which was 10 % in primary liver carcinoma.Conclusions The neurological complication is a kind of serious disease with high incidence after liver transplantation. Its onset may have some relationships with the primary liver disease.
