ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the clinical efficacies of the conservative and surgical treatment of grade m and Ⅳ traumatic hepatic rapture.Methods The clinical data of 77 patients with traumatic hepatic rapture were analyzed.All the patients were admitted to the Fuzhou General Hospital of Nanjing Military Command from January 2004 to June 2014.According to the Organ Injury Scale grading system of the American Association for the Surgery of Trauma (AAST-OIS) and the Becker classification,there were 44 patients and 33 patients had grade Ⅲ and grade Ⅳ traumatic hepatic rapture,respectively.The vital signs,condition of the wound and the resuhs of imaging examination were comprehensively analyzed,and the conservative and surgical treatment methods were selected accordingly.Patients were followed up via outpatient examination or telephone interview till September 2014.Results There were 19 patients received conservative treatment and 25 received surgical treatment among the 44 patients with grade m traumatic hepatic rapture,and 5 received conservative treatment and 28 received surgical treatment among the 33 patients with type Ⅳ traumatic hepatic rapture.Thirty-one patients received suture of the liver,18 received partial hepatectomy and 4 received damage control surgery.All the 77 patients were cured without perioperative death.For patients with grade m traumatic hepatic rapture,the duration of hospital stay were (12 ± 9)days and (20 ± 15)days for patients received conservative and surgical treatment,respectively; and for patients with grade Ⅳ traumatic hepatic rapture,the duration of hospital stay were (17 ± 3) days and (34 ± 25) days for patients received conservative and surgical treatment,respectively.Nineteen patients had complications,including 10 with hepatic abscess,5 with bile leakage (cured by puncture and drainage),2 with pseudoaneurysm (cured by interventional therapy with digital subtraction angiography),1 with adhesive intestinal obstruction and delayed hemorrhage (cured by operation for 2 times).Seventy-one patients were followed up,with the rate of 92.2％ (71/77).The median time of follow-up was 7 months (range,3-15 months).Only 1 patient was complicated with hepatic abscess at postoperative month 13,and was cured by puncture and drainage,and the other patients were live and well.Conclusions The success rate of operation for patients with grade m traumatic hepatic rapture is relatively high with short hospital stay and quick recovery of patients.The indication of conservative treatment for patients with grade Ⅳ traumatic hepatic rapture should be strictly controlled,and the surgical treatment is the main means of therapy.Hepatic abscess,bile leakage and pseudoaneurysm are the common complications for patients with traumatic hepatic rapture.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate effects of transcatheter hepatic arterial embolization(TACE)on spoutaneoua rupture of hepatocellular carcinoma(SRHC).Methods Emergent hepatic arterial catheterization was performed in 38 cases of SRHC,using sponge gelatin,iodized oil and PVA tO embolize blooding arterial branch.Results Blooding was completely cortrolled by TACE in 35 eases,of which one patient died of severe hypohepatia and renal insufficiency 3 days later,and two patients died of misdiagnosis,35 patients remained to be alive after 3 months.33 patients remained to be alive after 6 months.28 patients remained to be alive after 12 months.Conclusion Arterial embolization is a good method for treating SRHC,especially to the patients which could not completdy removal the cancer,its eftect is superior to other surgical operation for hemostasia.
ABSTRACT
Objective To discuss the diagnosis value of ultrasonography in hepatorrhexis. Methods The contrast of ultrasonography for 120 cases of hepatorrhexis with operative exploration was made. Results All of the 120 patients were examined with ultrasonography, fragmentation of liver parenchyma in 55 cases, dehiscence of liver parenchyma in 38 cases, liver subcapsular hematoma in 12 cases, and spontaneous rupture of liver cancer in 7 cases. All of the 120 patients were confirmed hepatorrhexis with laparotomy. The positive diagnostic rate of ultrasonography in the hepatorrhexis was 93.3%.Conclusion Ultrasonography is valuable for diagnosing hepatorrhexis and it is one of the important diagnostic approaches.
