Objective To evaluate the feasibility of laparoscopic hepatectomy.Methods A total of 27 patients received laparoscopic hepatectomy by using laparoscopic Peng's multifunctional operative dissector(LPMOD).Among the patients,13 underwent anatomic hepatectomy(resection of the Ⅱ and Ⅲ segments in 3,Ⅴ segment in 1,Ⅵ in 7,Ⅴ and Ⅵ in 1,and Ⅴ,Ⅵ,Ⅶ,and Ⅷ segments in 1),and 14 received partial hepatectomy.Results The laparoscopic hepatectomy was accomplished successfully in all the patients without converting to open surgery.The mean operation time was 35-360 min [mean,(178.0?78.4) min];intraoperative blood loss was 35-1200 ml [mean,(451.7?332.6) ml];and the postoperative hospital stay was 2-14 d [mean,(8.4?3.0) d].No severe complication occurred after the operation.The postoperative pathological examinations showed hepatic hemangioma in 15,focal hyperplasia of the liver in 2,hepatocelluar carcinoma complicated with liver cirrhosis in 6,intrahepatic bile duct stone complicated with hyperplasia of the bile duct in 2,liver(hematoma) fibrosis in 1,and hepatic angiomyolipoma in 1.The patients were followed up for 1-26 months [mean,(7.9?7.4) months] by using B-ultrasonography or CT.No recurrence of hemangioma or carcinoma,tumor implantation at the puncture site,or residual stones in the intrahepatic bile duct was found in this series.Conclusion By using LPMOD,laparoscopic hepatectomy is safe and feasible for selected patients.

0.05).Conclusion Selective hepatic vascular occlusion is superior to complete hepatic vascular occlusion,and is worth being widely used.

Objective To explore the method and clinical effect of laparoscopic anatomical right liver resections. Method The candidates for laparoscopic right hepatic lobectomys were 4 cases including 3 cases of liver hemangioma and 1 case of hepatorrhexis. Results The laparoscopic right hepatic lobectomy we performed saccess bully in all the 4 patients, operation time was (470±42.7)min. The blood loss in operation was ( 1950± 881.3) ml. The postoperative hospital stay was ( 15 ± 2.9) days.There was not complcation. Conclusions Laparoscopic right hepatic libectomy is feasible and safe.For the patients with benign liver disease, it is an operation with less operation wound.

Objective To explore extracellular signal-regulated kinase ( ERK1/2 ) expression in the role of curcumin inhibited staurosporine (STS)-mediated neurons toxic injury through added PD098059, and to clarify ERK1/2 mediated inhibitory role of curcumin on STS-induced neurons toxic injury.Methods The neurons toxic injury model of primary cultured hippocampal neurons was established by STS.The experiment was divided into six groups:normal control group, STS model group, PD098059 +STS model group, curcumin +STS pretreatment group, curcumin+PD098059+STS treatment group and curcumin treatment group.The cell viability were determined by MTT method, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release rate, cell toxicity were detected, nuclear shape were observed by DAPI staining, and ERK1/2 expression were detected by Western blot method.Results The cell viability of curcumin +STS pretreatment group was significantly higher than STS model group ( P <0.001 ); the cell viability had no significant difference between PD098059 +STS model group and curcumin +PD098059 +STS treatment group;compared with curcumin +STS model group , the cell viability of curcumin +PD098059 +STS treatment group was significantly decreased ( P<0.001 ).LDH results showed that the nerve cell toxicity of curcumin +STS pretreatment group was obviously less than STS model group (P<0.001).The cell nuclear shape showed typical apoptosis morphological characteristics in STS model group, and curcumin inhibited the effect of STS mediated-neuronal apoptosis.ERK1/2 protein expression in curcumin +STS pretreatment group significantly increased compared with STS model group ( P <0.001 ) .Conclusion Curcumin inhibited STS-mediated neurons toxicity injury by up-regulating ERK1/2 expression.After PD098059 blocking the nerve cells ERK1/2 synthesis, the inhibitory action of curcumin failed to implemented, which illustrated that ERK1/2 mediated curcumin to inhibit STS-induced neuronal toxic injury.

Objective To study the safety and feasibility of laparoscopic left lateral sectionectomy using the Glissonian pedicel approach.Methods The root of the round ligament of the liver was exposed and the Glissonian pedicel of the left lateral section was dissected,starting from left and using the lapa roscopic Peng's multifunctional operative dissector (LPMOD).After the Glissonian pedicel of segment Ⅱ and Ⅲ was dissected,clipped and cut,the ischemic boundary showed up.The liver was transected at the boundary of the ischemic liver,and the left hepatic vein and its branches were cut. Resutts The surgery was successtully performed in 8 patients.There was no conversion to open operation.The operative time was 110- 190 (151.0±35.4) min.The time of Glissonian pedicel dissection and liver resection was 70- 135 (101.0±24.1) min.Operative blood loss was 100-300(210.0± 89.4) ml.The ALT increased by 35- 102 (75.4± 26.5) U/L after operation and decreased to a normal level in 2-6 (3.0± 1.7) d.The postoperative hospital stay was 6-10 (8.2± 1.6) d.There was no major complication.Conclusion Laparoscopic left lateral sectionectomy using the Glissonian pedicel approach is safe and feasible.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of laparoscopic Habib 4X (Habib 4X,Angio Dynamics US),a new bipolar radiofrequency (RF) device,in laparoscopic liver resection.Methods Thirty one patients who underwent laparoscopic liver resection using the laparoscopic Habib 4X from Sept 2009 to Apr 2012 were studied retrospectively.Results The laparoscopic Habib 4X was success fully used in 30 patients (malignant,n=18; benign,n=12).The procedures performed included left lateral sectionectomy (n=12),left hemi-hepatectomy (n=1),Ⅴ or Ⅵ segmentectomy (n=9),Ⅴ and Ⅵ bi-segmentectomy (n=2) and wedge exclusion (n=6).The time required for precoagulation and resection was 10～68 min (median 24 min).The mean intraoperative blood loss was 145±75ml (range 8-370 ml).Mild abnormal liver function which returned to normal in 3 to 5 days was detected postoperatively.The mean hospital stay was 7.8±2.6 d (range 3～12 days).There was no patient who developed postoperative bleeding,bile leakage or abdominal abscess.For cancer patients,there was no local recurrence on follow-up.Conclusion Laparoscopic Habib 4X,a device when used in laparoscopic liver resection,resulted in minimal blood loss and quick recovery.It had only mild effect on liver function and it had low morbidity.In addition,it might reduce the risk of local recurrence in malignant tumours.
