Objective To study the effects of ischemia-reperfusion in liver transplantation on the pathophysiological changes of the lung and mechanisms of lung injury. Methods We studied 23 patients who received liver transplantation at Fuzhou General Hospital of PLA. We cut a small piece of the right lung for pathological study and for L-1β and TNF-a immunohistochemistry studies at 5 minutes after the beginning of operation (Ta), 5 minutes before the portal vein was opened (Tb) and three hours after the new liver was transplanted (Tc). We also collected peripheral blood to study the concentration of IL-1β and TNF-a in the plasma at the beginning of operation (T1), the portal vein 5 minutes before opening, the portal vein (T2) ten minutes after the opening (T3) , and one hour after the new liver was transplanted (T4), three hours after the new liver was transplanted (T5), and 12 hours after operation (T6). Results The cytokines TNF-a and IL-1β in peripheral blood were not obviously increased in the portal vein before it was opened, but were significantly increased after the portal vein was opened. Comparison of T1 and T2 separately with T3, T4 and T5 showed significant differences (P<0. 01). In light and electron microscopy, the structures of the lung tissues were normal at Ta and did not change significantly at Tb. There were significant abnormalities at Tc. The average positive points of TNF-a and IL-1β expressions in the lung tissues at Tc were significantly higher than Ta and Tb(P<0. 01). Conclusion Ischemia-reperfusion in liver transplantation led to a serious systemic inflammatory syndrome,and acute lung injury. TNF-a and IL-1β were involved in acute lung injury.

BACKGROUND: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) recurrence following liver transplantation has been difficultly treated, and antiviral therapy following HBV recurrence has been less reported yet.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the antiviral therapy using Adefovir + Lamivudine + anti-hepatis B immunoglobulin on liver functional improvement following liver transplantation.METHODS: A total of 208 cases with hepatitis B-related end-stage liver disease following liver transplantation were selected from Liver Transplantation Center of Fuzhou General Hospital of Nanjing Military Area Command of Chinese PLA from January 2005 to October 2008. All patients were treated with Lamivudine + anti-hepatis B immunoglobulin so as to prevent from HBV recurrence. At 6-43 months after following up, HBV recurrence was found in 19 cases, including 13 with positive HBeAg and 8 with YMDD mutation. The 19 patients were treated with Adefovir based on the application of Lamivudine + anti-hepatis B immunoglobulin.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: At 12, 24, and 48 weeks after treatment, DNA and glutamic-pyruvic transaminase of 19 cases were significantly decreased (P < 0.01). After 48-week treatment, recovery rate of glutamic-pyruvic transaminase, negativity rate of HBeAg, and negativity rate of HBV DNA were 84.1 %, 76.92%, and 78.9%, respectively. The results demonstrated that the application of Adefovir + Lamivudine + anti-hepatis B immunoglobulin effectively inhibited viral replication and prevented HBV recurrence following liver transplantation.

Objective:To investigate the application value of three-dimensional (3D) visualization combined with indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence imaging in anatomical hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Methods:Clinical data of 45 patients with HCC who underwent anatomical hepatectomy in the Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery, the 900th Hospital of Joint Logistic Support Force of People′s Liberation Army from September 2019 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 27 patients were males and 18 were females, aged from 28 to 73 years, aged (57.76±10.95) years on average. According to the different surgical methods, all patients were randomly divided into ICG group ( n=24) and control group ( n=21). In ICG group, 15 patients were males and 9 females, aged (58.21±11.81) years on average. Anatomical hepatectomy was performed using 3D visualization combined with ICG fluorescence imaging. In control group, 12 patients were male and 9 female, aged (57.24±11.35) years on average. Conventional anatomical hepatectomy was performed. The operation duration, bleeding volume, the numbers of cases underwent blood transfusion, occlusion durations, days of hospitalization, highest postoperative serum ALT and TBiL, duration of recovery of postoperative serum ALT and TBiL, and incidence of complications were observed. Measurement data with approximately normal distribution were represented by ( Mean± SD) and groups were compared using t test. Measurement data with skewed or uneven distribution were represented by M (rang) and groups were compared using Man-Whitney U test. Count date were compared using Fisher exact test. Results:All the patients underwent successful operations, without perioperative death. In ICG group, the operation duration was 110.50 (44.00-145.00) min and the occlusion durations was (15.17±2.14) min respectively, shorter than 122.00(80.00-255.00) min and (17.29±4.35) min in control group, the difference between the two groups were statistically significant ( Z=-2.002, -2.115; P<0.05). In ICG group, the numbers of cases underwent blood transfusion was 2 cases, less than 8 cases in control group, the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( χ2=4.147, P<0.05). The bleeding volume, days of hospitalization, highest postoperative serum ALT and TBiL, duration of recovery of postoperative serum ALT and TBiL, postoperative complications between the two groups were not statistically different ( P>0.05). Conclusions:3D visualization combined with indocyanine green fluorescence imaging technique is a feasible surgical method for anatomical hepatectomy. It is helpful for liver surgeons to visualize and recognize the boundary between hepatic segments and improve the safety of anatomic hepatectomy.
