Perioperative Non-Invasive Indocyanine Green-Clearance Testing to Predict Postoperative Outcome after Liver Resection

BackgroundPostoperative liver dysfunction may lead to morbidity and mortality after liver resection. Preoperative liver function assessment is critical to identify preexisting liver dysfunction in patients prior to resection. The aim of this study was to evaluate the predictive potential of perioperative indocyanine green (ICG)-clearance testing to prevent postoperative liver dysfunction and morbidity using standardized outcome parameters in a routine Western-clinical-setting.ResultsPreoperative reduced ICG—plasma disappearance rate (PDR) as well as increased ICG—retention rate at 15 min (R15) were able to significantly predict postoperative liver dysfunction (Area under the curve = PDR: 0.716, P = 0.018; R15: 0.719, P = 0.016). Furthermore, PDR <17%/min. or R15 >8%, were able to accurately predict postoperative complications prior to surgery. In addition to this, ICG-clearance on postoperative day 1 comparably predicted postoperative liver dysfunction (Area under the curve = PDR: 0.895; R15: 0.893; both P <0.001), specifically, PDR <10%/min or R15 >20% on postoperative day 1 predicted poor postoperative outcome.ConclusionPDR and R15 may represent useful parameters to distinguish preoperative high and low risk patients in a Western collective as well as on postoperative day 1, to identify patients who require closer monitoring for potential complications.     

Feasibility and Safety of Laparoscopic Liver Resection for Hepatocellular Carcinoma with a Tumor Size of 5–10 cm

Background

Although laparoscopic liver resection has developed rapidly and gained widespread acceptance for the treatment of benign liver diseases and hepatocellular carcinoma with a small tumor size, its usefulness for the treatment of large tumors is less clear, due to concerns about compromising oncological principles and patient safety. The purpose of this study was to explore the safety and feasibility of laparoscopic liver resection for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma with a tumor size of 5–10 cm.

Methods

From March 2007 to December 2011, we performed liver resection in 275 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma with a tumor size of 5–10 cm. Laparoscopic liver resection was performed in 97 patients (Lap-Hx group) and open liver resection was performed in 178 patients (Open-Hx group). Operative time, estimated intraoperative blood loss, blood transfusion rate, and length of postoperative hospital stay were compared between the two groups. Early and intermediate-term postoperative outcomes were also compared.

Results

Only one liver resection was performed for every patient with HCC in the present study.No operative deaths occurred in either group. Nine of the laparoscopic procedures were converted to open resection (conversion rate 9.28%). There were no significant differences in mean operative time (245±105 min vs 225±112 min; P = .469), mean estimated intraoperative blood loss (460±426 mL vs 454±365 mL; P = .913), or blood transfusion rate (4.6%, 4/88) vs (2.8%, 5/178)(P = .480) between the Lap-Hx and Open-Hx groups. However, postoperative hospital stay was shorter in the Lap-Hx group than the Open-Hx group (8.2±3.6 days vs 13.5±3.8 days; P = .028). There was a lower rate of postoperative complications in the Lap-Hx group than the Open-Hx group (9% vs 30%; P = .001), but there were no severe complications in either group. The median overall follow-up time was 21 months (range 2–50 months) and the median follow-up of time of survivors was 23 months. The median follow-up time was 25 months in the Lap-Hx group and 20 months in the Open-Hx group. The follow-up rate was 95% (84 patients) in the Lap-Hx group and 95% (169 patients) in the Open-Hx group, which was not a significant difference between the two groups (P = .20). Tumor recurrence occurred in 17 patients (20%) in the Lap-Hx group and 35 patients (21%) in the Open-Hx group, which was not a significant difference between the two groups (P = .876). A total of 33 patients (13%) died during the study period, including 12 patients (14%) in the Lap-Hx group and 21 patients (12%) in the Open-Hx group, which was not a significant difference between the two groups (P = .695). There were also no significant differences in the 1-year rates of overall survival (94% vs 95%; P = .942) or disease-free survival (93% vs 92%; P = .941), or the 3-year rates of overall survival (86% vs 88%; P = .879) or disease-free survival (66% vs 67%; P = .931), between the Lap-Hx and Open-Hx groups.

Conclusions

Laparoscopic liver resection is safe and feasible in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma with a tumor size of 5–10 cm. Laparoscopic liver resection can avoid some of the disadvantages of open resection, and is beneficial in selected patients based on preoperative liver function, tumor size and location.     

两种微创术式治疗老年混合痔的临床疗效比较

目的:比较两种微创手术方式治疗老年混合痔的临床疗效和安全性。方法:选取2012年10月至2013年4月在湖南中医药大学第一附属医院肛肠科住院的162例老年混合痔患者并随机分成治疗组82例和对照组80例,治疗组采用自动痔疮套扎(RPH)术+外痔切除术治疗,对照组采用痔上粘膜环切钉合(PPH)术+外痔切除术治疗,观察周期为21天,随访3年。观察并比较分析两组患者术后疼痛积分、手术时间、术中出血量、术后恢复时间、术后并发症情况及远期疗效。结果:治疗组手术时间、术中出血量、术后恢复时间、术后24 h疼痛积分、首次排便疼痛积分及术后并发症(出血、水肿)的发生率均明显短于或低于对照组,差异有统计学意义(P0.05)。两组的远期疗效相当,差异无统计学意义(P0.05)。结论:自动痔疮套扎(RPH)术治疗老年混合痔患者的近期疗效和安全性较粘膜环切钉合(PPH)术+外痔切除术更好,而远期疗效与其相当。     

Experimental antibody therapy of liver metastases reveals functional redundancy between Fc gammaRI and Fc gammaRIV

Many patients with colorectal cancer will develop liver metastases, even after successful surgical removal of the primary tumor at a time at which no visible metastases are present. We previously demonstrated that surgery--although mandatory--paradoxically enhances the risk of developing liver metastases. Because Ab therapy has been acknowledged as a successful strategy to treat malignancies, we studied the potential of postoperative adjuvant Ab therapy to prevent outgrowth of liver metastases. Treatment with murine anti-gp75 (TA99) mAb completely prevented outgrowth of B16F10 liver metastases in over 90% of mice. Therapeutic efficacy was maintained in either C1q- or complement receptor 3-deficient mice but was completely abrogated in FcR gamma-chain knockout mice. This indicates that the classical complement pathway was not essential, but interaction with activatory Fc gammaR was necessary for successful therapy. TA99-treatment was still effective in Fc gammaRI(-/-), Fc gammaRIII(-/-), Fc gammaRI/III(-/-), and Fc gammaRI/II/III(-/-) mice, suggesting an important role for Fc gammaRIV. However, wild-type mice that were treated with TA99 Abs and an Fc gammaRIV blocking Ab (mAb 9E9) were protected against development of liver metastases as well. Only when both Fc gammaRI and Fc gammaRIV functions were simultaneously inhibited, TA99-mediated curative Ab treatment was abrogated, indicating functional redundancy between both IgG receptors in the liver. Furthermore, depletion of liver macrophages (Kupffer cells) reduced the efficacy of Ab therapy, supporting that Kupffer cells are involved as effector cells. Importantly, since Ab treatment almost completely prevented development of liver metastases, postoperative adjuvant Ab therapy may help to improve patient prognosis.     

Safety of simultaneous resections of colorectal cancer and liver metastases

Liver resection is the only potentially curative method for patients with colorectal cancer metastases and 5-year survival rates are 20%-40%. Simultaneous resection of colorectal cancer and synchronous liver metastases has been recommended if minor hepatectomy is indicated. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the treatment of hepatic colorectal secondaries and to assess the safety of simultaneous and delayed liver resections and relations of morbidity to the extensiveness of hepatectomy and perioperative factors. Analyzed were 21 patients with liver metastases from colorectal cancer operated between 1997 and 1999 in the Clinical Hospital "Sestre milosrdnice". Operating time for simultaneous colorectal and liver resections was not significantly longer compared to liver resections alone. No significant difference in complication rate was found after simultaneous procedures and liver resection alone (38% vs. 31%). Complication rate after major liver resections was not significantly greater than after minor resections (38% vs. 31%). No statistically significant differences were found in operation time and blood replacement between patients who developed postoperative complications and those who did not. In conclusion, simultaneous resections of primary colorectal cancer and liver metastases may be considered safe. Morbidity rates are not significantly different from those after liver resections alone, nor depend significantly upon the extensiveness of liver resection, providing that the operation time and blood loss are within the range observed in this study.     

Deficiency in Thrombopoietin Induction after Liver Surgery Is Associated with Postoperative Liver Dysfunction

Background and Aims

Thrombopoietin (TPO) has been implicated in the process of liver regeneration and was found to correlate with hepatic function in patients with liver disease. With this investigation we aimed to determine if perioperative TPO levels were associated with postoperative outcome in patients undergoing liver resection.

Methods

Perioperative TPO was analyzed prior to liver resection as well as on the first and fifth postoperative day in 46 colorectal cancer patients with liver metastasis (mCRC) as well as 23 hepatocellular carcinoma patients (HCC). Serum markers of liver function within the first postoperative week were used to define liver dysfunction.

Results

While circulating TPO levels significantly increased one day after liver resection in patients without liver cirrhosis (mCRC) (P < 0.001), patients with underlying liver disease (HCC) failed to significantly induce TPO postoperatively. Accordingly, HCC patients had significantly lower TPO levels on POD1 and 5. Similarly, patients with major resections failed to increase circulating TPO levels. Perioperative dynamics of TPO were found to specifically predict liver dysfunction (AUC: 0.893, P < 0.001) after hepatectomy and remained an independent predictor upon multivariate analysis.

Conclusions

We here demonstrate that perioperative TPO dynamics are associated with postoperative LD. Postoperative TPO levels were found to be lowest in high-risk patients (HCC patients undergoing major resection) but showed an independent predictive value. Thus, a dampened TPO increase after liver resection reflects a poor capacity for hepatic recovery and may help to identify patients who require close monitoring or intervention for potential complications.

Effect of major liver resection on hepatic ureagenesis in humans

Changes in hepatic ureagenesis following major hepatectomy are not well characterized. We studied the relation between urea synthesis and liver mass before and after major hepatectomy in humans. Fifteen patients scheduled for resection of malignancies in otherwise healthy livers were studied. Pre- and postoperative liver volume was assessed by computerized tomography-volumetry. During surgery, a primed, continuous infusion of [(13)C]urea was administered intravenously, and arterial blood samples were obtained hourly. Indocyanine green clearance was determined before and after resection. Seven patients underwent major hepatectomy, and eight patients underwent minor [<5% functional liver volume (total volume -- tumor volume)] or no resection, serving as controls. Resected functional liver volume in the major hepatectomy group averaged 60%. Urea synthesis per gram of functional liver tissue increased 2.6-fold following major hepatectomy, maintaining whole body urea synthesis. Arterial ammonia remained unchanged throughout the study, whereas following hepatectomy a hyperaminoacidemia occurred. In conclusion, immediately following major hepatectomy, urea synthesis per gram of functional liver tissue increases rapidly and proportionately to the amount of liver tissue resected, maintaining whole body urea synthesis at preoperative levels. This rapid and complete adaptation suggests that the capacity of urea synthesis is not limiting the maximum resectable volume in otherwise healthy livers.     

Implementation of a fast-track clinical pathway decreases postoperative length of stay and hospital charges for liver resection

A fast-track clinical pathway is designed to streamline patient care delivery and maximize cost effectiveness. It has decreased postoperative length of stay (LOS) and hospital charges for many surgical procedures. However, data on clinical pathways after liver surgery are sparse. This study examined whether use of a fast-track clinical pathway for patients undergoing elective liver resection affected postoperative LOS and hospital charges. A fast-track clinical pathway was developed and implemented by a multidisciplinary team for patients undergoing liver resection. Between July, 2007 and May, 2008, a total of 117 patients underwent elective liver resection: the fast-track clinical pathway (education of patients and families, earlier oral feeding, earlier discontinuation of intravenous fluid, no drains or nasogastric tubes, early ambulation, use of a urinary catheter for less than 24 h and planned discharge 6 days after surgery) was studied prospectively in 56 patients (postpathway group). These patients were compared with the remainder who had usual care (prepathway group). Outcome measures were postoperative LOS, perioperative hospital charges, intraoperative and postoperative complications, mortality, and readmission rate. Among all patients, 69 (59%) had complicating diseases and/or a history of surgery and 24 patients belonged to American Society of Anesthesiologists grade III–IV. Compared with the prepathway group, the postpathway group had a significantly shorter postoperative LOS (7 vs. 11 days, P < 0.01). The average perioperative hospital charges were RMB 26,626 for patients in the prepathway group and only RMB 21,004 for those in the postpathway group (P < 0.05), with no differences in intraoperative and postoperative complications (P = 0.814), mortality (P = 0.606), and readmission rate (P = 0.424). Implementation of the fast-track clinical pathway is an effective and safe method for reducing postoperative LOS and hospital charges for high-risk patients undergoing elective liver resection. The result supports the further development of fast-track clinical pathways for liver surgical procedures.

Computed tomography in the comprehensive diagnosis of acute diseases and injuries

The author presents the results of a CT use during combined investigation on 2500 patients and the wounded who were admitted to hospital on emergency as well as patients who developed serious complications during treatment, especially in the postoperative period. CT findings were verified during operation, at autopsy or during a follow-up. They were indicative of a high effectiveness of emergency CT of different organs and systems in the diagnosis of lesions, acute diseases and their complications. The use of CT permitted considerable reduction of a diagnostic (preoperative) period, a decrease in use of routine invasive x-ray and surgical methods, and the improvement of therapeutic results.

Pancreaticoduodenectomy Combined with Vascular Resection and Reconstruction for Patients with Locally Advanced Pancreatic Cancer: A Multicenter,Retrospective Analysis

Objective

The aim of this study was to present the therapeutic outcome of patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer treated with pancreatoduodenectomy combined with vascular resection and reconstruction in addition to highlighting the mortality/morbidity and main prognostic factors associated with this treatment.

Materials and Methods

We retrospectively analyzed the clinical and pathological data of a total of 566 pancreatic cancer patients who were treated with PD from five teaching hospitals during the period of December 2006–December 2011. This study included 119 (21.0%) patients treated with PD combined with vascular resection and reconstruction. We performed a detailed statistical analysis of various factors, including postoperative complications, operative mortality, survival rate, operative time, pathological type, and lymph node metastasis.

Results

The median survival time of the 119 cases that received PD combined with vascular resection was 13.3 months, and the 1-, 2-, and 3-year survival rates were 30.3%, 14.1%, and 8.1%, respectively. The postoperative complication incidence was 23.5%, and the mortality rate was 6.7%. For the combined vascular resection group, complications occurred in 28 cases (23.5%). For the group without vascular resection, complications occurred in 37 cases (8.2%). There was significant difference between the two groups (p = 0.001). The degree of tumor differentiation and the occurrence of complications after surgery were independent prognostic factors that determined the patients’ long-term survival.

Conclusions

Compared with PD without vascular resection, PD combined with vascular resection and reconstruction increased the incidence of postoperative complications. However, PD combined with vascular resection and reconstruction could achieve the complete removal of tumors without significantly increasing the mortality rate, and the median survival time was higher than that of patients who underwent palliative treatment. In addition, the two independent factors affecting the postoperative survival time were the degree of tumor differentiation and the presence or absence of postoperative complications.     

Adjuvant gamma knife surgery and image-guided,intensity-modulated radiation therapy for the treatment of sacral chordomas

AimThe aim of this study was to confirm whether patients with sacral chordoma benefit from adjuvant radiotherapy and to determine the optimal photon radiotherapy module for comprehensive treatment.BackgroundChordoma is a rare slow-growing neoplasm arisen from cellular remnants of the notochord. About 50% occur in the sacrococcygeal region. Surgical resection and adjuvant radiation therapy are recommended treatment due to the improving local control rate.Materials and methods118 patients treated by surgery and adjuvant radiotherapy from August 2003 to May 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients received surgical resection after diagnosis. Among these patients, 44 were treated by exclusive surgery, and 48 were treated with adjuvant image-guided, intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IG-IMRT). In addition, 26 patients were treated with gamma knife surgery (GKS) after surgical resection. The median follow-up was 54 months for all patients. Kaplan–Meier analysis was used to calculate recurrence-free survival (RFS) overall survival (OS).ResultsPatients treated with adjuvant radiotherapy had better RFS (p = 0.014) than those treated exclusively by surgery. The patients in the IG-IMRT group exhibited better recurrence-free survival (p = 0.01) than the GKS group. Moreover, in the IG-IMRT group, patients treated by higher dose were associated with better RFS (p = 0.04). No significant difference in OS was found. No grade 3 late toxicity was found.ConclusionsWe confirmed that adjuvant radiotherapy improved RFS but not OS in sacral chordoma patients after surgery. Furthermore, favorable RFS and low adverse event rates were observed following IG-IMRT. Our results suggest that high dose IG-IMRT is an appropriate module of adjuvant radiotherapy for sacral chordoma patients.

Development and Validation of a Prediction Score for Complications after Hepatectomy in Hepatitis B-Related Hepatocellular Carcinoma Patients

Objective and Background

The aim of the present study was to develop and validate a prediction score for postoperative complications by severity and guide perioperative management and patient selection in hepatitis B-related hepatocellular carcinoma patients undergoing liver resection.

Methods

A total of 1543 consecutive liver resections cases were included in the study. Randomly selected sample set of 70% of the study cohort was used to develop a score to predict complications III–V and the remaining 30% was used to validate the score. Based on the preoperative and predictable intraoperative parameters, logistic regression analysis was used to identify risk factors and create an integer score for the predicting of complication.

Results

American Society of Anesthesiologists category, portal hypertension, major liver resection (more than 3 segments) and extrahepatic procedures were identified as independent predictors for complications III–V by logistic regression analysis. A score system integrating these 4 factors was stratified into three groups and significantly predicted the risk of complications III–V, with a rate of 1.6%, 11.9% and 65.6% for low, moderate and high risk, respectively. Using the score, the complications risk could be predicted accurately in the validation set, without significant differences between predicted (10.4%) and observed (8.4%) risks for complications III–V (P = 0.466).

Conclusions

Based on four preoperative risk factors, we have developed and validated an integer-based risk score to predict postoperative severe complications after liver resection for hepatitis B-related hepatocellular carcinoma patients in high-volume surgical center. This score may contribute to preoperative risk stratification and clinical decision-making.
