ABSTRACT
Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of preoperative three-dimensional (3D) image reconstruction combined with intraoperative dynamic ultrasonography (IOUS) in laparoscopic precision hepatectomy for intrahepatic bile duct stones.Methods:The clinical data of 66 patients with intrahepatic bile duct stones undergoing laparoscopic hepatectomy in the First People's Hospital of Fuyang District, Hangzhou from January 2018 to January 2023 were retrospectively analyzed, including 32 males and 34 females, aged (49.6±15.2) years old. Patients were divided into the study group ( n=32), who underwent laparoscopic precision hepatectomy using 3D reconstruction combined with IOUS, and the control group ( n=34), who underwent conventional laparoscopic hepatectomy. Perioperative data including the operation time, intraopera-tive blood loss, total volume of drainage on postoperative day (POD) 3, and the rates of complications were compared between the groups. Serum levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6), C-reactive protein (CRP), liver function indices including total bilirubin (TBil) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) were monitored preoperatively and on POD 1, 3, 5, and 7. Results:The operation time was shorter in the study group [(178±17) min vs. (189±18) min, t=2.55, P=0.010]. The intraoperative blood loss was reduced in the study group [(218±19) ml vs. (395±21) ml, P<0.001]. The incidence of total volume of drainage >300 ml on POD 3 were comparable between the groups [9.4%(3/32) vs. 14.7%(5/34), P=0.507]. There were no significant differences in preoperative serum level of TBil, ALT, CRP and IL-6 between the groups (all P>0.05). Compared to the control group, serum levels of TBil, ALT and CRP in the study group were decreased on POD 1, 3, 5 and 7, and IL-6 was decreased on POD 1 and 3 (all P<0.05). The occurrences of postoperative bile leakage [9.4% (3/32) vs. 29.4% (10/34)] and liver cutting surface fluid accumulation [12.5% (4/32) vs. 35.3% (12/34)] and the rate of stone retention [3.0% (1/32) vs. 20.6% (7/34)] were lower in the study group (all P<0.05). Conclusion:Preoperative 3D image reconstruction combined with IOUS in laparoscopic precision hepatectomy for intrahepatic bile duct stones could reduce intra-operative blood loss, hepatic inflammatory response, and postoperative complications.
ABSTRACT
Objective@#To study laparoscopic ultrasound assisted hepatectomy in treatment of intrahepatic and extrahepatic bile duct stones.@*Methods@#The data of 52 patients with hepatolithiasis who underwent laparoscopic hepatectomy from May 2014 to January 2019 at the Fuyang District First People's Hospital in Hangzhou were analyzed retrospectively. There were 28 men and 24 women. The median age was 56 years. Operative laparoscopic ultrasonography was used to detect the location, size, distribution of stones and their relations to blood vessels. A total of 43 patients underwent anatomic hepatectomy, while 38 patients underwent choledochoscopic stone extraction. A " T" tube was used according to intraoperative conditions.@*Results@#Laparoscopic surgery was successfully carried out in 50 patients, while conversion to open surgery was required in 2 patients because of adhesions and bleeding. Laparoscopic ultrasonography revealed intrahepatic calcifications in 5 patients and choledochoscopy in 2 patients. Postoperative complications included 5 patients who devleoped abdominal abscesses. The operation time was (289.0±132.0) minutes. The intraoperative blood loss was (451.0±256.0) ml. The hospitalization after operation was (12.0±3.0) days. In 52 patients, 4 patients had residual stones and the residual rate was 7.7%. All of them were completely removed by T-tube sinus 8 weeks after operation.@*Conclusions@#Laparoscopic ultrasound helped to detect relevant bile ducts containing stones, reduced chance of bleeding in surgery, helped to clarify location and distribution of stones, improved accuracy of diagnosis, and reduced unnecessary hepatectomy by clearly defining intrahepatic bile duct stones intraoperatively. The residual intrahepatic and intrahepatic bile duct stones rates were reduced, and the safety and accuracy of the operations were improved.

ABSTRACT
Objective To study the safety,efficacy and advantages of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) combined with clinical pathway management in laparoscopic common bile duct exploration and lithotomy (Laparoscopic common bile duct exploration,LCBDE).Methods 78 patients who underwent LCBDE in the Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery in the First Hospital of Fuyang District in Hangzhou were selected as the non-ERAS group (the control group).76 patients who underwent LCBDE treated with fast track surgery and ERAS clinical pathway management were selected as the ERAS group.The data between the two groups which included the postoperative insulin resistance index,changes in C-reactive protein,duration of postoperative analgesic use and analgesia,timing of first passage of postoperative flatus,postoperative abdominal tube removal,postoperative bile leakage,recurrence of biliary stones,intestinal ileus and other complications.Results All the two groups were discharged home successfully.On preoperative 7 day,the differences on the postoperative insulin resistance index and the levels of C reactive protein were significantly different (P<0.05).The time to first get out of bed after operation,the postoperative analgesic use,the time to first passage of flatus,the time to postoperative abdominal drainage tube removal,and the time to clamping of the T tube after operation were significantly different (all P<0.05).The postoperative complications of pulmonary infection,abdominal infection and the incidence of prolonged intestinal ileus were significantly different (all P<0.05).Conclusions ERAS combined with clinical pathway management reduced postoperative stress reaction and complication rate.The treatment accelerated recovery and shortened hospital stay for patients who underwent LCBDE,which led to good social and economic benefits.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the prognostic significance of the candidate selection Hangzhou criteria for liver transplantation of HCC patients undergoing hepatectomy.Methods 199 HCC patients undergoing hepatectomy between 2009 and 2011 were enrolled retrospectively.Predictors of survival were identified using the Kaplan-Meier method.The disease state was staged by the Hangzhou criteria (HC) and Milan staging systems.Calculating the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC) evaluates the discriminatory ability for the prediction of survival of both staging system.Results Portal vein thrombosis,poor differentiation,and tumor size (> 8 cm) were independent risk factors for survival after hepatectomy.Milan criteria and Hangzhou criteria functioned well in predicting tumor-recurrence.For 1-year AUROC,the AUROC for Milan criteria and Hangzhou criteria are 0.602 and 0.741,respectively.For 3-year AUROC,the AUROC for Milan criteria and Hangzhou criteria are 0.643 and 0.733,respectively.Conclusions The HC were shown to be a promising survival predictor in a Chinese cohort of HCC patients after hepatectomy.

ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the clinical applications and surgical methods of combined laparoscopic common bile duct (CBD) exploration with choledochoscopy. Methods From 2006 to 2009,clinical data of 42 patients with choledocholithiasis undergoing laparoscopic common bile duct exploration were retrospectively analyzed. We applied a step-by-step electric coagulating incision technique on the CBD,the step-by-step suturing technique, and the step-by-step clamping technique with alligator forceps, and soft tube irrigating technique with suctioning by selecting the proper exploration route, improving the common bile duct incision technique and calculus removing techniques. Results Procedures were successful in all the cases. There was no conversions to open surgery, no postoperative bleeding and no operative mortality. The mean operating time was 120 minutes (ranging, 90 to 150 minutes) with minimal intraoperative blood loss ( ranging, 20 to 40 ml). Ductal stone clearance was successful in 41 out of 42 patients ( 93% ). The largest number of the common bile duct stones was 16. With the diameter of stones larger than 15 mm in 18 cases in which the biggest was 30 mm. Bile leak developed in 1 patient, retained stones found in 3 patients,including intrahepatic cholelithiasis in one case. As a result, 38 out of 42 patients underwent common bile duct exploration. 35 patients were placed on T-tubes. Four patients underwent cystic duct exploration in which 3 had primary suture of the cystic duct and 1 had drainage. There was no infection and stenosis of biliary tract in the 42 followed-up cases. Conclusions Laparoscopic common bile duct exploration with stone extraction can be performed with high efficiency, minimal morbidity and without mortality. Improving the way of operation and selecting suitable exploration can result in better clinical outcomes.
