Hepatectomy in the treatment of bleeding of spontaneous rupture of hepatocellular carcinoma / 中国普通外科杂志

ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical results of hepatectomy for bleeding of spontaneous rupture of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). MethodsThe clinical data of 24 cases admitted to our hospital from Jan 1990 to Mar 2004 was analyzed retrospectively.ResultsSurgical hemostasis was achieved successfully in 100.0% (24/24) of patients. The postoperative mortality rate was 4.1% (1/24), and the (complication) rate 12.5%(4/24). Liver function recovered within two weeks after operation. The length of hospital stay was 14.756.25 days.Twenty-one patients were followed-up from 6 month to 36 months. 8 patients died from recurrence within 10 months postoperatively; 10 patients survived over 1 year, 1 patient over 2 years and 1 over 3 years. The overall 1-year survival rate was 58.3%(13/24).ConclusionsIn the management of bleeding of spontaneous rupture of HCC, hepatectomy can effectively stop the bleeding and excise the tumor at the same operation. In some patients, a radical excision can be achieved, and, if the (patient)s condition permits it, hepatectomy should be the treatment of choice.

Treatment of primary hepatic cancer with portal venous tumor thrombosis / 中国普通外科杂志

Objective To investigate an effective method of treating primary hepatic cancer(PHC) with portal venous tumor thrombosis (PVTT). Methods The clinical data Of 23 patients with PHC and PVTT were retrospectivly analysed. Results Of the 23 patieats after hepatoma resection and PVTT extraction, continuous micro dose infusion chemotherapy or perfusion chemotherapy by DDS was adopted. In 8 patients with main portal vein tumor thrombus, 2 died, 4 recured in 6 months. In 8 patients with the first class branch of portal vein tumor thrombus, 2 recurrd in 6 months and 6 recurred in 12 months. In 4 patients with secondary class branch of portal vein tumor thrombus, l recurred in 12 months (P

Obstructive jaundice caused by hepatocellular carcinoma (a report of 16 cases) / 中国普通外科杂志

Objective To investigate the diagnosis and treatment of obstructive jaundice (OJ) caused by hepatocellular cacinoma (HCC) invasion to bile duct. Methods The diagnosis and treatment of 16 cases of OJ caused by HCC in our hospital from January 1989 to December 1998 were retrospectively analysed. Results Correct diagnosis was made in 2 cases and misdiagnosis in 14 cases preoperatively. 14 cases were operated on, including hepatectomy, enucleation of the tumor in the common bile duct (CBD) and T tube drainage in 2 cases; enucleation of the tumor in CBD and internal stent of T tube drainage in 11 cases; tumor biopsy and T tube drainage in 2 cases; one case died without operation. 15 cases were followed-up for 1 to 14 months postoperatively. The results demonstrated that 14 patients died within 6 months, and only 1 case remained alive for 14 months after operation. Conclusions The correct diagnosis of this disease could be made for the patients with jaundice accompanied with positive of HbsAg and AFP, local lesions in the liver and the dilated bile duct. B-US, CT, PTC and ERCP are the main examination methods for the diagnosis. The best treatment of this kind of HCC is to remove the hepatic tumor and to recanalize the affected bile ducts.

Diagnosis and treatment of primary liver cancer with cancer thrombus of the bile duct / 中国普通外科杂志

Objective To study the diagnosis and treatment of primary liver cancer(PLC) with bile duct cancer thrombus (BDT). Methods The clinical data of 21 patients with PLC and BDT admitted in the past 8 years were analyzed retrospectively . Results The major clinical manifestations were the symptoms of primary liver cancer and obstructive jaundice. The correct diagnosis rate was 76.2% before operation. The diagnosis rate of B-us, CT, MRI, ERCP and PTC was 14.3%, 9.52%, 14.3%, 71.4% and 100% respectively. The operative procedures included hepatectomy with removal of BDT ( n =10), hepatectomy combined with extrahepatic bile duct resection ( n =5), thrombectomy through choledochotomy with TACE ( n =3), removal of BDT with HAI ( n =3). The 3,5-year survival rate were 43.20% and 24.60% respectively. Conclusions Multi-examinations should be applied in the diagnosis of PLC with BDT. The comprehensive therapy including surgery and other therapies must be adoptted for PLC with BDT.

Hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma associated with cirrhosis / 中国普通外科杂志
