[PMID: 27593596 PMCID: PMC5011081 DOI: 10.1016/j.hpb.2016.06.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 35] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2016] [Revised: 06/01/2016] [Accepted: 06/08/2016] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study is to evaluate whether a parenchymal-sparing strategy provides similar results in terms of morbidity, mortality, and oncological outcome of non-PSH hepatectomies in a propensity score matched population (PSMP) in case of multiple (>3) bilobar colorectal liver metastases (CLM). BACKGROUND The surgical treatment of bilobar liver metastasis is challenging due to the necessity to achieve complete resection margins and a sufficient future remnant liver. Two approaches are adaptable as follows: parenchymal-sparing hepatectomies (PSH) and extended hepatectomies (NON-PSH). METHODS A total of 3036 hepatectomies were analyzed from a multicentric retrospective cohort of hepatectomies. Patients were matched in a 1:1 propensity score analysis in order to compare PSH versus NON-PSH resections. RESULTS PSH was associated with a lower number of complications (≥1) (25% vs. 34%, p = 0.04) and a lower grade of Dindo-Clavien III and IV (10 vs. 16%, p = 0.03). Liver failure was less present in PSH (2 vs. 7%, p = 0.006), with a shorter ICU stay (0 day vs. 1 day, p = 0.004). No differences were demonstrated in overall and disease-free survival. CONCLUSION In conclusion, PSH resection for bilobar multiple CLMs represents a valid alternative to NON-PSH resection in selected patients with a reduced morbidity and comparable oncological results.

Hepatol Res 2016; 46:529-40. [PMID: 26331638 DOI: 10.1111/hepr.12585] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/17/2015] [Revised: 08/25/2015] [Accepted: 08/30/2015] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
AIM Besides the residual liver volume, damage of the microcirculation secondary to increased portal blood flow is a main determinant of postoperative liver failure (PLF). Endothelin-1 (ET-1), produced by sinusoidal endothelial cells, plays a key role in the regulation of hepatic microcirculation. The aim of this study was to determine whether ET-1 levels has any prognostic utility in predicting PLF. METHODS Patients undergoing liver resection for primary or secondary liver tumors at San Raffaele Hospital, Milan, were prospectively enrolled in the study. Serial postoperative serum ET-1 levels in patients undergoing liver resections were correlated with indices of inflammatory response, liver failure and death. RESULTS A total of 144 patients were included. ET-1 levels in patients who underwent major or extended liver resection were significantly higher than in patients who had a minor resection on postoperative day (POD) 1 (P = 0.003), POD 2 (P = 0.0001) and POD 5 (P = 0.0001). Eight patients developed PLF and ET-1 was significantly higher compared with patients without PLF on POD 2 (P = 0.002) and POD5 (P = 0.006). Serum ET-1 concentration on POD 2 was an independent predictor of PLF in multivariate analysis. CONCLUSION ET-1 is as an early index of PLF and provides a rationale for therapeutic manipulation, with many potential clinical implications to prevent PLF onset and reduce its severity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Debate on the optimal mode of preoperative imaging in the management of colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) is ongoing and, despite its longstanding use, the precise role of intraoperative ultrasonography (IOUS) is not well established. This study evaluates the impact of IOUS in the era of high-quality, cross-sectional imaging techniques. METHODS All patients who underwent liver resection for CRLM in a tertiary care referral centre from January 2006 to December 2013 were included. All patients were submitted to computed tomography (CT) and/or liver magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) before surgery. Intraoperative US was performed mainly to detect previously non-diagnosed tumours that would change the surgical strategy. RESULTS A total of 225 liver resections were performed. Liver MRI and CT scans were available for 202 patients (89.8%) and 225 patients (100%), respectively. Radiological reports recorded 632 liver tumours in 219 patients (i.e. 2.9 lesions per patient). The median time between preoperative liver MRI and surgical resection was 36 days. Intraoperative inspection, palpation and US found 20 additional lesions in 18 patients (8.0%), in three of whom lesions were diagnosed only on IOUS (1.4%). Overall, only 12 of the 20 lesions were malignant. CONCLUSIONS Although CT and liver MRI are commonly used, IOUS alone allows the discovery of a few additional lesions that result in a change of surgical strategy in 1.4% of cases.

Abstract
AIM This prospective multicenter study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and adverse events of hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) using percutaneous catheter placement techniques for liver metastases from colorectal cancer (CRC). METHODS We administered 5-fluorouracil at 1000 mg/m2 over 5 h via hepatic arterial infusion on a weekly schedule. The primary endpoint was the overall response rate (RR). The secondary endpoints were the overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS) and toxicities. RESULTS Between February 2000 and March 2002, seventy-seven eligible patients were enrolled in this study. After a median of 26 treatment cycles, 4 patients achieved a complete response, 29 achieved a partial response, 28 had stable disease, 15 had progressive disease and the status of one patient was unknown. The overall RR was 42.9% and the disease control rate (DCR) was 79.2%. The median PFS and OS times were 203 and 560 days, respectively. The most common grade 3 or 4 hematological and non-hematological toxicities were total bilirubin level elevation (10.4%) and gamma-glutamyl transferase level elevation (10.4%). With regard to the relationship between the background factors and treatment outcomes, the DCR, RR, PFS and OS were different between patients with and without extrahepatic lesions (DCR: 86.5% vs 64%, RR: 46.2% vs 36.0%, PFS: 233 days vs 99 days, OS: 587 days vs 558 days). CONCLUSION The primary endpoint of this study was not met. HAIC using percutaneous catheter placement techniques did not improve the RR for liver metastasis from CRC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Surgical treatment is the only option for long-term survival in patients with colorectal liver metastasis (CRLM). Contrast-enhanced CT and MRI are usually used for preoperative liver imaging. The initial surgical strategy for liver resection is based upon these findings. Further optimization of the surgical strategy by contrast-enhanced intraoperative ultrasound (CE-IOUS) might further improve the surgical outcome. PURPOSE To evaluate the current impact of CE-IOUS with SonoVue(®) on the initial surgical strategy for CRLM. MATERIAL AND METHODS Eighty-six consecutive patients undergoing open liver resection for CRLM were evaluated retrospectively over a 2.5-year period. The patients underwent 97 operations. Preoperative staging was performed with contrast-enhanced CT in all patients and MRI was available in 66 of 86 patients. CE-IOUS was performed in all patients according to a standardized examination technique. Curved array and linear transducers were used. CRLM were identified in venous phase as hypovascular lesions. CE-IOUS findings were compared with preoperative staging. RESULTS Combined CT/MRI identified preoperatively 328 CRLM (mean 3.4, range 0-14). Seventy-two additional lesions (18%) were identified in 38 patients during the operation. Intraoperatively 41 additional CRLM in 20 patients were identified by inspection, palpation, and CE-IOUS (10%), and another 31 CRLM in 17 patients were identified by CE-IOUS alone (8%). All additional CRLM detected by CE-IOUS were confirmed by histology if resection was performed. CE-IOUS changed planned operation strategy in 29.9% of operations. A larger resection was necessary in 13.4% of the cases, reduced liver resection was found sufficient in 11.3%, and 5.2% were found inoperable. For patients diagnosed preoperatively with solitary lesions CE-IOUS changed operation strategy in 19% and radical tumor resection would have failed in 4.8% without CE-IOUS. CONCLUSION CE-IOUS is essential to ensure optimal and complete tumor resection both in patient with solitary CRLM and multiple metastases.

Abstract
The most common site of metastases in patients with colorectal cancer is the liver. Hepatic resection is considered to be the treatment of choice for liver metastasis from colorectal cancer; however, hepatic resection can be performed in only 20 or 25% of all patients. Recurrence develops in the remnant liver or other organs after hepatic resection in over half of all patients with liver-only metastasis. Hepatic arterial infusion (HAI) chemotherapy can provide relatively high concentrations of drugs to microscopic or macroscopic metastases in the liver, with less toxicity than systemic administration. Meta-analyses have shown HAI chemotherapy to have a significantly higher response rate than systemic chemotherapy and its effect on extrahepatic metastases is negligible. HAI chemotherapy provides much better local control of liver metastases from colorectal cancer than systemic chemotherapy. However, well-controlled studies are needed to elucidate the optimal treatment strategies for neoadjuvant and postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy that optimally combine HAI chemotherapy, molecular targeted agents, and systemic chemotherapy such as FOLFOX or FOLFIRI.
