ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo investigate the feasibility of extended hepatectomy for huge hepatic carcinoma.MethodsA retrospective analysis was made on the clinical data of 28 patients with huge hepatic carcinoma who underwent extended hepatectomy from December 2006 to June 2011.Twenty-two cases were Child-Pugh grade A,6 cases were Child-Pugh grade B,19 cases were indocyanine green retention at 15 minutes (ICGR15)≤10％,5 cases were 10％ ＜ ICGR15 ≤15％,4 cases were 15％ ＜ ICGR15 ≤20％.ResultsThe operative death rate was 7.1％ (2/28) with Child-Pugh grade B,15％ ＜ ICGR15 ≤20％ and liver resection volume 60％-70％.Postoperative complications were found on 15 cases,but all recovered after treatment.ConclusionExtended hepatectomy for huge hepatic carcinoma can be feasible in the patients with enough reserve of the liver function provided.
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the effect of prostaglandin E1 on soluble interleukin-6 receptor(SIL-6R) and soluble interleukin-6 receptor β strands (sgp 130) in serum in patients with chronic severe hepatitis.Methods Sixteen patients with chronic severe hepatitis accepted therapy with prostaglandin E1.Serum levels of SIL-6R and sgp130 were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method before and after therapy.Results The content of SIL-6R and sgp 130 in serum were increased significantly (P<0.001) in patients with chronic severe hepatitis compared with normal control group and decreased obviously (P<0.01) after therapy with prostaglandin E1 compared with before therapy,and the rate of delth were decreased obviously (P<0.01) in PGE1 therapy group.Conclusion The levels of SIL-6R and sgp130 in serum can reflect the degree of liver damage in patients with chronic severe hepatitis and guide the assessment of prognosis;PGE1 can correct the immune disorder,attenuating hepatocyte inflammation and necrosis.
