Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of precise liver resection of liver tumors adjacent to the main pipeline.Methods The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted.The clinical data of 22 patients who underwent precise resection of liver tumors adjacent to the main pipeline in the Affiliated Tumor Hospital of Zhengzhou University between December 2014 and June 2016 were collected.According to preoperative precise evaluation and fully intraoperative exposed tumors,different methods of blood flow occlusion were choosed timely,and then precise resection of the liver was evaluated based on tumor location and size,relationship between tumor and blood vessels and the degree of liver cirrhosis.The operation procedures,operation time,time of liver resection,volume of intraoperative blood loss,number of patients with perioperative blood transfusion,postoperative complications,duration of postoperative hospital stay and follow-up were observed.The follow-up was performed by outpatient examination and telephone interview up to September 2016.Tumor recurrence of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) was monthly detected by alpha-fetoprotein retest and color Doppler ultrasound of the liver or computed tomography (CT) within 3 months postoperatively.Tumor recurrence of patients with cholangiocarcinoma was monthly detected by tumor marker retests,color Doppler ultrasound of the liver or CT,and then patients without tumor recurrence received reexamination once every 2 months after 3 months.Patients with liver hemangioma were followed up once every 2-3 months and once every 6 months after half a year,and follow-up included the liver function,ultrasound and other imaging examinations to detect the tumor recurrence.Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as-x±s.Results All the 22 patients underwent successful precise resection of liver tumors.Twenty patients received intraoperative ultrasound localization.Blood flow occlusion of 22 patients:Pringle was conducted in 6 patients,treatment of the corresponding hepatic pedicle in 3 patients,selective hepatic blood flow occlusion in 8 patients,total hepatic blood flow occlusion in 2 patients and non-hepatic portal occlusion in 3 patients.Precise resection of the liver of 22 patients:1 patient underwent right trisegrnentectomy,2 underwent left hepatectomy,2 underwent segment Ⅳ a resection of the liver,2 underwent segment Ⅳ resection of the liver,3 underwent segment Ⅴ resection of the liver,3 underwent segment Ⅷ resection of the liver,1 underwent middle lobe resection of the liver and 8 underwent partial resection of the liver.Operation time,time of liver resection,volume of intraoperative blood loss and number of patients with perioperative blood transfusion were (213±39) minutes,(57± 19) minutes,(518± 98) mL and 3,respectively.Of 22 patients,5 with postoperative complications were improved after symptomatic treatment,including 2 with effusion at surgical site,2 with right pleural effusion and 1 with bile leakage.The duration of postoperative hospital stay of 22 patients was (8.9± 1.6)days.Twenty-one patients were followed up for 3-20 months,with a median time of 12 months.Two of 22 patients had recurrence during the follow-up,and no recurrence at surgical site was detected.Conclusion Precise resection of liver tumors adjacent to the first and second hepatic hilum is safe and feasible,with the advantages of less intraoperative bleeding and low incidence of postoperative complications.

Sorafenib is the only molecular targeted drug therapy for advanced liver cancer recommended by the European Association for the study of liver diseases (EASL), American Association for the study of liver diseases (AASLD) and the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). As a multi kinase inhibitors, sorafenib can inhibit multiple signal transduction pathways of tumor cell proliferation and angiogenesis and obviously prolong the late stage of disease progression time and overall survival in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Criteria for evaluation of the efficacy of sorafenib in the treatment of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is increasingly perfect. The author gives a brief overview of the molecular mechanism, efficacy and safety and efficacy evaluation criteria of sorafenib in the treatment of advanced liver cancer.

Objective To study the expression of Notch3 in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and to find out its relationship with clinical features and overall survival in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.Methods PDAC and adjacent non-cancerous tissues from 80 patients who under went surgery for primary PDAC in the Affiliated Tumor Hospital of Zhengzhou University were collected between 2008 and 2015.The specimens were divided into two subgroups by immunohistochemical staining of Notch3:the low expression group (0-4 points) and the high expression group (5-12 points).Correlations between expression of Notch3 with clinical features and prognosis of patients with PDAC were analyzed.Results A high expression of Notch3 gene was significantly associated with tumor grade,metastasis,venous invasion and TNM staging.Univariate Cox regression analysis showed that metastasis,venous invasion,TNM stage and protein expression of Notch3 were strongly correlated with overall survival of patients.Multivariate analysis showed that metastasis,TNM stage and Notch3 were independent risk factors of overall survival in patients with PDAC.Kaplan-Meier survival curves indicated that a high expression of Notch3 was an important risk factor of poor survival.Conclusions A high expression of Notch3 was significantly associated with progression and poor prognosis of PDCA.Notch3 may serve as a new indicator of PDAC progression and patient survival outcomes.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility and safety of laparoscopic liver tumor resection in children.Methods:The clinical data of 6 children undergoing laparoscopic liver tumor resection from June 2018 to March 2020 in the Affiliated Tumor Hospital, Zhengzhou University were retrospectively analyzed.Results:There were 4 males and 2 females among the 6 cases, with the average age of (7±2)years.All the children were admitted to the hospital with a liver occupying examination due to physical discomfort.Preoperative diagnosis: 3 cases of hepatoblastoma, 1 case of primary liver cancer, 1 case of hepatic adenoma and 1 case of hepatic nodular hyperplasia.All the children successfully completed laparoscopic liver tumor resection without conversion to open surgery.Among them, 3 children obtained left hemihepatectomy, 1 child underwent hepatic left lobectomy, 1 child was given VI hepatectomy, and 1 child accepted hepatic caudate lobectomy.The operation time was(90±9)min, and the average intraoperative blood loss was (83±26) mL.All children had no blood transfusion during or after operation.There were no bleeding, bile leakage, infection and liver failure after operation.All children had no gastric tube before surgery and the fluid diet was given on the first day after operation, and the postoperative median hospital stay was 4(3-5) days.The pathology were consis-tent with the preoperative diagnosis, and the resections were all radical operation resections.The follow-up period was from 2 to 23 months, and all the children recovered well and no recurrence was observed.Conclusions:Laparoscopic liver tumor resection in children is safe and feasible, which can minimize trauma, reduce intraoperative bleeding and shorten the hospital stay without increasing the incidence of postoperative complications.Laparoscopic liver tumor resection in children has certain advantages.
