Hígado: siete segmentos hepáticos / Liver: seven hepatic segments

Estudiamos la estructura intrahepática en 200 hígados (A05.8.01.001)* humanos: Las ramas portales, arteriales y biliares formaron siete pedículos segmentarios antes de penetrar en su parénquima correspondiente. Los cuatro primeros pertenecen, generalmente, al lóbulo izquierdo (A05.8.01.027) y los segmentos V, VI y VII al lóbulo derecho (A05.8.01.026). En un 80 % la rama portal V es derecha y en 20 % izquierda; por su parte, en un 80 % la fisura portal principal (A05.8.01.035) divide el lóbulo derecho del izquierdo, extendiéndose desde la fosa de la vesícula biliar (A05.8.01.013) al margen izquierdo de la vena cava inferior (A12.3.09.001); en un 20 % la fisura portal derecha (A05.8.01.036) divide el lóbulo derecho del izquierdo, ella se extiende desde un punto equidistante entre el margen vesicular derecho y el ángulo anterior derecho del hígado, describiendo una curva de convexidad externa y alcanza el margen derecho de la vena cava inferior. En un 70 % el hígado estuvo irrigado por la arteria hepática propia (A12.2.12.029), en un 30 % ésta se anastomosaba con arterias hepáticas accesorias. Observamos anastomosis entre la arteria hepática derecha (A12.2.12.030) y la izquierda (A12.2.12.035) en un 55 % de los casos en el hilio inferior y no en el espesor del parénquima. Las arterias segmentarias al penetrar a su correspondiente segmento se vuelven terminales. Los conductos biliares aberrantes son conductos biliares segmentarios que no han confluido para constituir el conducto hepático derecho (A05.8.01.062), drenan en el conducto hepático común (A05.8.01.061) o en el conducto cístico (A05.8.02.011). El tronco común biliar de los segmentos VI y VII drena en el conducto hepático izquierdo (A05.8.01.065) en el 21 % de los casos, no más allá de un cm del punto de formación del conducto hepático común. En relación al grupo venoso superior, conformado por la vena hepática izquierda (A12.3.09.008), vena hepática intermedia (A12.3.09.007) y vena hepática derecha (A12.3.09.006), observamos venas del lóbulo caudado+ en el 100 % de los casos y la vena hepática inferior derecha+ en el 61 %. Estas tenían un diámetro entre 5 y 20 mm, habiendo 5 % de casos con vena hepática media derecha+. En un 40 % existe un puente parenquimal que une los segmentos III y IV. En un 25 % apreciamos lóbulos hepáticos accesorios que se desprenden de la cara visceral del hígado. El objetivo de este trabajo consistió en aportar una clasificación sencilla de la segmentación hepática desde un punto de vista quirúrgico.

Intrahepatic structure study in 200 human livers: The Portal, arterial and biliary branches form seven segmental pedicles before entering the corresponding parenchyma. The first four belong, generally to the left lobe and the number V, VI and VII to the right. In 80 % portal branch V is right and 20 % is left, so in 80 % the line dividing both hemi livers ranges from biliary cystic fossa to the left edge of the inferior cava vein; in 20 % said line running from a equidistant point between biliary cystic fossa right margin and the right anterior angle edge of the liver, describes a convex outer curve and reaches the right edge of the inferior cava vein. 70 % of the livers were supplied by the hepatic artery, in 30 % there were anastomosis with accessory hepatic arteries. We observed anastomosis between the left and right hepatic artery in 55 % of cases in the hilum plate and not in the thickness of the parenchyma. Segmental arteries while penetrating their segments, become terminal. Aberrant bile ducts are segmental bile, they have not come together to form the right hepatic duct, draining into the common hepatic or cystic. Biliary common duct segments VI and VII drains into the left hepatic duct in 21 % of cases, no more than 1 cm from the point of formation of the common hepatic. Besides in (left hepatic, intermediate and and right hepatic) upper venous system we observed veins in the caudate lobe in 100 % of cases, and right lower hepatic in 61 % of cases, these had a diameter between 5 and 20 mm, and 5 % with right middle hepatic. At 40 % there is a parenchymal bridge linking segments III and IV. In 25 % we appreciate accessory lobes arising from the underside of the liver. The aim of this study was to provide a simple classification of the hepatic segmentation from a surgical point of view.

Value of medical image three-dimensional visualization system in precise hepatectomy / 中华消化外科杂志

Objective To investigate the guiding significance of medical image three-dimensional visualization system (MI-3DVS) in precise hepatectomy. Methods The clinical data of 45 patients with hepatic neoplasms who were admitted to the Zhujiang Hospital from June 2008 to September 2010 were prospectively analyzed. The preoperative image data of the liver were three-dimensionally reconstructed by MI-3DVS. According to the distribution of the intrahepatic portal veins and hepatic veins, the liver was divided into different sections,and then tumors can be located within these hepatic segments. The volume percentage of residual liver and volume of liver resected were detected. Evaluation of surgical resectability and surgery simulation were done before operation. Results According to the distribution of the intrahepatic portal veins and hepatic veins, all patients were divided into seven types: 21 patients were with normal type which was the same as Couinaud type, six with nondivided type, 11 with non-divided right liver type, four with non-divided left liver type, one with right hepatic vein type, one with double middle hepatic vein type and one with right posterior vein type. Thirty-nine patients received open hepatectomy, and the volume percentage of the residual liver was 74% ± 17%. Postoperative pathological examination confirmed that all the 39 patients were with hepatocellular carcinoma. Six patients received transcatheter arterial chemoembolization. No severe complications such as acute hepatic failure, bleeding, bile leakage were detected. All patients were followed up for six months, and they survived with or without tumor. Conclusion MI-3DVS has guiding significance in preoperative assessment and perioperative guidance for precise hepatectomy.
