ABSTRACT

Regarding the prevention and treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) recurrence after curative resection,surgeons do not have a clear consensus to evaluate the risk factors of recurrence and effectiveness of surgical resection.Therefore,postoperative HCC recurrence patterns were reviewed in this article,including differentiating intrahepatic metastasis (IM) and multicentric occurrence (MO),which play a key role in manifesting recurrence and patient prognosis.Additionally,the definitions of small HCC and curative resection,and the prophylactic and therapeutic values of anatomic resection and repeated hepatectomy in patients with recurrent HCC were reviewed.Fully understanding these issues might allow for a more objective,precise,and consistent clinical assessment of HCC.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effect of standard remnant liver volume (SRLV) on liver insufficiency after hepatectomy in cirrhotic patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Methods Sixty-seven HCC patients with liver cirrhosis were involved in this study.The following parameters were obtained in all cases:total liver volume (TLV),resected liver volume by surgery,body surface area (BSA),remnant liver volume (RLV)and SRLV.Compared analysis of relationship between liver insufficient and the parameters as well as the age of patients,duration of operation and blood lose etc.was carried out,in order to establish the security threshold of SRLV.Results According to the postoperative liver function,the patients were divided into 2 groups:Group A,52cases with mild liver dysfunction; Group B,15cases among them 12 with moderate and 3 with severe liver insufficiency.Statistical analysis showed that the difference of TLV,duration of operation,intra-operative blood lose and age between Group A and B were insignificant(P>0.05).However,that of RLV and SRLV were significant(P<0.05).The average SRLV in Group A was 562±89 ml/m2 and 410±87 ml/m2 in Group B (P<<0.01).The security threshold of SRLV was 438 ml/m2 calculated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC)in our patients.Then randomly selected sixty HCC patients,the incidences of moderate and severe liver insufficiency postoperative in the SRLV≤438 ml/m2 and SRLV>438 ml/m2 patients were 92.3%and8.5% (P<0.01).Conclusions It is suggested from our present study that SRLV is a good predictor for post-operative liver function reserve in patients with cirrhotic HCC.Its security threshold is 438 ml/m2,and the risk of occurring hepatic failure will be high postoperatively when patient,s SRLV is less than this value.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the correlation between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of FOXP3 gene and the susceptibility of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Methods Two SNPs rs2280883 and rs3761549 of FOXP3 gene in 392 HCC patients and 372 healthy controls were analyzed by Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption/ Ionization Time of Flight Mass Spectrometry (MALDI-TOF).Results At rs3761549,C allele frequency was significantly higher ( OR =1.32,95% CI 1.03 -1.70,P =0.027) in HCC patients than healthy controls.Compared with healthy controls,HCC patients had higher frequencies of TT genotype (79.6% ) at rs2280883 or CC genotype (77.6%) at rs3761549 of FOXP3 gene.Patients carrying rs2280883 TT genotype ( OR =1.53,95% CI 1.10 - 2.14,P < 0.00001 ) or rs3761549 CC genotype ( OR =1.92,95% CI 1.39 - 2.64,P < 0.00001 ) were more susceptible to HCC.Stratified analysis showed that rs3761549 CC genotype was significantly associated with higher incidence of portal vein tumor thrombus ( x2 =5.578,P =0.018 ),and rs3761549 TT/CT genotype was significantly associated with higher rate of tumor recurrence in HCC patients (x2 =6.561,P =0.010).Conclusions FOXP3 gene polymorphisms at rs2280883 and rs3761549 might be associated with increased susceptibility to HCC. rs3761549,CC genotype and TT/CT genotype were respectively associated with higher incidence of portal vein tumor thrombus and tumor recurrence in HCC patients.

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the value of CT perfusion imaging (CTPI) in the diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Method CTPI was carried out on 21 patients with 26 lesions to obtain the following perfusion parameters: hepatic blood flow (HBF), hepatic blood volume (HBV),mean transit time (MTT), permeability surface area product (PS), and hepatic arterial fraction (HAF). The parameters from the lesion and non-lesion areas were compared. In addition, serum AFP was measured in the HCC patients and a linear correlation analysis between the alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) level and the CTPI parameters was performed. Result CTPI failed in 3 patients with 3 lesions and was successful in 18 patients with 23 lesions which included 18 HCC, 4 hemangioma of the liver,and 1 hepatic focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH). On comparison of the HCC parameters in the lesion and non-lesion areas, significant differences were found in the HAF which was 4.11 times higher in the lesion than the non-lesion areas, while the MTT and PS were significantly lower. There was no significant difference in the HBF and HBV. Correlation between the serum AFP level and the CTPI parameters of the HCC lesion was insignificant. The differences of all the parameters between the lesion and the non-lesion in hemangioma were similar to those in HCC, except for a higher HBF in the lesion than in HCC. There was no significant difference between the parameters of FNH and the non-nodular part of the liver. Conclusion CTPI played an important role in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of HCC, especially when the AFP was negative and/or the imaging manifestation was atypical on contrast CT.

ABSTRACT

Hepatic perfusion data such as hepatic blood flow, hepatic blood volume, hepatic arterial perfusion index etc, can be obtained by CT perfusion imaging (CTPI)with quantitative measurements of local blood flow to the liver. As the data mentioned above are varied in different tissues, e. g normal liver parenchyma, cirrhotic liver, hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) and secondary liver cancer(SLC),the differential diagnosis of liver lesions, especially the early subclinical liver cancer, can be made by analyzing the related data. The principle of CTPI, the main points for differential diagnosis between HCC and SLC, the relationship between CTPI and micro-vessel density(MVD), the changes of CTPI pre-and post-TACE, as well as diagnostic sensitivity of CTPI and contrast enhanced ultrasound(CEUS) in patients with liver cancer were introduced in this article.
