Abstract
BACKGROUND Preoperative risk stratification for hepatectomy patients can aid clinical decision making. The objective of this retrospective cohort study was to determine postoperative mortality risk factors and develop a score-based risk calculator using a limited number of preoperative predictors to estimate mortality risk in patients undergoing hepatectomy. METHODS Data were collected from patients that underwent hepatectomy from the National Surgical Quality Improvement Program dataset from 2014 to 2020. Baseline characteristics were compared between survival and 30-day mortality cohorts using the χ 2 test. Next, the data were split into a training set to build the model and a test set to validate the model. A multivariable logistic regression model modeling 30-day postoperative mortality was trained on the training set using all available features. Next, a risk calculator using preoperative features was developed for 30-day mortality. The results of this model were converted into a score-based risk calculator. A point-based risk calculator was developed that predicted 30-day postoperative mortality in patients who underwent hepatectomy surgery. RESULTS The final dataset included 38,561 patients who underwent hepatectomy. The data were then split into a training set from 2014 to 2018 (n = 26,397) and test set from 2019 to 2020 (n = 12,164). Nine independent variables associated with postoperative mortality were identified and included age, diabetes, sex, sodium, albumin, bilirubin, serum glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase (SGOT), international normalized ratio, and American Society of Anesthesiologists classification score. Each of these features were then assigned points for a risk calculator based on their odds ratio. A univariate logistic regression model using total points as independent variables were trained on the training set and then validated on the test set. The area under the receiver operating characteristics curve on the test set was 0.719 (95% confidence interval, 0.681-0.757). CONCLUSIONS Development of risk calculators may potentially allow surgical and anesthesia providers to provide a more transparent plan to support patients planned for hepatectomy.

Prognostic impact of postoperative infection after resection of biliary malignancy: A multicenter retrospective cohort study. Surgery 2023; 174:1145-1152. [PMID: 37599194 DOI: 10.1016/j.surg.2023.05.019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/05/2023] [Revised: 05/05/2023] [Accepted: 05/24/2023] [Indexed: 08/22/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to investigate the prognostic impact of postoperative infections in patients who underwent resection for biliary malignancy, including intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, perihilar cholangiocarcinoma, distal cholangiocarcinoma, gallbladder carcinoma, and carcinoma of the ampulla of Vater. METHODS This study was conducted in an 11-center retrospective cohort study. Patients with biliary tract cancer who underwent curative resection between April 2013 and March 2015 at 11 institutions in Japan were enrolled. We analyzed the prevalence of postoperative infection, infection-related factors, and prognostic factors. RESULTS Of the total 290 cases, 33 were intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, 60 were perihilar cholangiocarcinoma, 120 were distal cholangiocarcinoma, 55 were gallbladder carcinoma, and 22 were carcinoma of the ampulla of Vater. Postoperative infectious complications, including remote infection, were observed in 146 patients (50.3%), and Clavien-Dindo ≥III in 115 patients (39.7%). Postoperative infections occurred more commonly in the patients who received pancreaticoduodenectomy and bile duct resection. Patients with infectious complications had a significantly poorer prognosis than those without (median overall survival 38 months vs 62 months, P = .046). In a diagnosis-specific analysis, although there was no correlation between infectious complications and overall survival in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, perihilar cholangiocarcinoma, distal cholangiocarcinoma, and carcinoma of the ampulla of Vater, infectious complications were a significantly poor prognostic factor in gallbladder carcinoma (P = .031). CONCLUSION Postoperative infection after surgery for biliary tract cancer commonly occurred, especially in patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy and bile duct resection. Postoperative infection is relatively associated with the prognosis of patients with biliary malignancy, especially gallbladder carcinoma.

Pathogen detection in patients with perihilar cholangiocarcinoma: Implications for targeted perioperative antibiotic therapy. Hepatobiliary Pancreat Dis Int 2023; 22:512-518. [PMID: 35153139 DOI: 10.1016/j.hbpd.2022.01.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/06/2021] [Accepted: 12/10/2021] [Indexed: 02/05/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Cholestasis should be relieved by biliary drainage prior to major liver resection. This condition is often associated with bacterial colonization of the otherwise sterile biliary system. Cholangitis reduces the regenerative capacity of the remaining liver. Therefore, targeted antibiotic therapy is a key feature in perioperative treatment in patients with perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (pCCC). METHODS Between December 1999 and December 2017, 251 pCCC patients were treated in our center. In total, 115 patients underwent a microbiological analysis. In addition to the characterization of the specific microorganisms and antibiotic resistance, we analyzed subgroups according to preoperative intervention. RESULTS Enterococci (87/254, 34%) and Enterobacteria (65/254, 26%) were the most frequently detected genera. In 43% (50/115) of patients, Enterococcus faecalis was found in the bile duct sample. Enterococcus faecium (29/115) and Escherichia coli (29/115) were detected in 25% of patients. In patients with percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (3/8, 38%) or stents (24/79, 30%), Enterococcus faecium was diagnosed most frequently (P < 0.05). Enterococcus faecium and Klebsiella oxytoca were significantly more frequently noted in the time period after 2012 (P < 0.05). With regard to fungal colonization, the focus was on various Candida strains, but these strains generally lacked resistance. CONCLUSIONS pCCC patients exhibit specific bacterial colonization features depending on the type of preoperative biliary intervention. Specifically, targeted antibiosis should be applied in this patient cohort to minimize the risk of biliary complications after major liver resection. In our cohort, the combination of meropenem and vancomycin represents an effective perioperative medical approach.

Prognostic Value for Perioperative Serum Total Cholesterol Level on Postoperative Long-Term Prognosis of Pancreatic Cancer: A Retrospective Clinical Study. Diagnostics (Basel) 2023; 13:diagnostics13081402. [PMID: 37189504 DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics13081402] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2023] [Revised: 03/23/2023] [Accepted: 04/04/2023] [Indexed: 05/17/2023] Open
Abstract
Cholesterol correlates with occurrence and progression of pancreatic cancer and has predictive value for postoperative prognosis in various cancers. Our study intended to reveal the relationship between perioperative serum total cholesterol (TC) level and postoperative prognosis of pancreatic cancer. We retrospectively analyzed the data of pancreatic cancer patients who underwent surgical treatment at our hospital from January 2015 to December 2021. ROC curves between serum TC level at each time point and 1-year survival rate were drawn, from which study object and optimal cutoff value was determined. Patients were divided into low and high-TC groups, and perioperative data and prognosis were compared. Risk factors for poor postoperative prognosis were identified by univariate and multivariate analysis. Overall survival rates at postoperative 1, 2 and 3 years in the low and high-TC groups were 52.9%, 29.4%, and 15.6% and 80.4%, 47.2%, and 33.8% (p = 0.005), respectively. Multivariate analysis confirmed tumor differentiation degree (RR = 2.054, 95% CI: 1.396-3.025), pTNM stage (RR = 1.595, 95% CI: 1.020-2.494), lymph node metastasis (RR = 1.693, 95% CI: 1.127-2.544), and postoperative 4-week serum TC level (RR = 0.663, 95% CI: 0.466-0.944) as independent risk factors for prognosis of pancreatic cancer. We conclude that postoperative 4-week serum TC level has certain predictive value for long-term postoperative prognosis of pancreatic cancer.

Infectious complications after surgery for perihilar cholangiocarcinoma: A single Western center experience. Surgery 2022; 172:813-820. [PMID: 35618490 DOI: 10.1016/j.surg.2022.04.028] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/26/2022] [Revised: 03/17/2022] [Accepted: 04/18/2022] [Indexed: 12/07/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to analyze the risk factors for surgical infectious complications and the outcomes of patients undergoing surgery for perihilar cholangiocarcinoma according to the microbiological examinations. METHODS Patients who underwent surgery for perihilar cholangiocarcinoma in the last decade were enrolled, and all clinical and microbiological data were collected from a retrospective monocentric database. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed distinguishing patients who developed at least 1 surgical infectious complication (surgical site infections, acute bacterial cholangitis, bacteremia). RESULTS A total of 98 patients were included. Among patients who developed surgical infectious complications (51%), many preoperative characteristics were significantly more frequent: American Society of Anesthesiologists score ≥3 (P = .026), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio ≥3.4 (P = .001), endoscopic sphincterotomy (P = .032), ≥2 biliary drainage procedures (P = .013), acute cholangitis (P = .012), multidrug resistant (P = .009), and ≥3 microorganisms' detection (P = .042); whereas during the postoperative period, surgical infectious complications were associated to increased incidence of intensive care unit readmission (P = .031), major complications (P < .001), posthepatectomy liver failure (P = .005), ascites (P = .008), biliary leakage (P = .008), 90-day readmission (P = .003), and prolonged length of hospital stay (P < .001). At the multivariate analysis 3 independent preoperative risk factors for surgical infectious complications were identified: neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio ≥3.4 (P = .004), endoscopic sphincterotomy (P = .009), and acute cholangitis (P = .013). The presence of multidrug-resistance in the perioperative biliary cultures was related to postoperative multidrug-resistant species from all cultures (P < .001) and organ/space and incisional-surgical site infections (P ≤ .044). CONCLUSION Infective complications after surgery for perihilar cholangiocarcinoma worsen the short-term outcomes. A careful microbiological surveillance should be carried out in all cases to prevent and promptly treat surgical infectious complications.
