Portal vein wedge resection and patch venoplasty with autologous vein grafts for hepatobiliary-pancreatic cancer. Surg Case Rep 2024; 10:27. [PMID: 38273043 PMCID: PMC10811310 DOI: 10.1186/s40792-024-01823-y] [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: 11/04/2023] [Accepted: 01/15/2024] [Indexed: 01/27/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Advanced hepatobiliary-pancreatic cancer often invades critical blood vessels, including the portal vein (PV) and hepatic artery. Resection with tumor-free resection margins is crucial to achieving a favorable prognosis in these patients. Herein, we present our cases and surgical techniques for PV wedge resection with patch venoplasty using autologous vein grafts during surgery for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (PhCC). CASE PRESENTATION Case 1: 73-year-old female patient with PDAC; underwent subtotal stomach-preserving pancreatoduodenectomy, with superior mesenteric vein wedge resection and venoplasty with the right gonadal vein. Case 2: 67-year-old male patient with PDAC; underwent distal pancreatectomy and celiac axis resection, with PV wedge resection and venoplasty with the middle colic vein. Case 3: 51-year-old female patient with type IV PhCC; underwent left hepatectomy with caudate lobectomy and bile duct resection, with hilar PV wedge resection and venoplasty with the inferior mesenteric vein (IMV). Case 4: 69-year-old male patient with type IIIA PhCC; underwent right hepatopancreatoduodenectomy, with hilar PV resection and patch venoplasty with the IMV. All patients survived for over 12 months after the surgery, without local recurrence. CONCLUSIONS PV wedge resection and patch venoplasty is a useful technique for obtaining tumor-free margins in surgeries for hepatobiliary-pancreatic cancer.

Ann Hepatobiliary Pancreat Surg 2021; 25:509-516. [PMID: 34845123 PMCID: PMC8639301 DOI: 10.14701/ahbps.2021.25.4.509] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/03/2021] [Revised: 01/06/2021] [Accepted: 01/07/2021] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Obtaining tumor-free resection margins is one of the most important factors for achieving favorable prognosis of patients undergoing resection for hepatobiliary malignancies. In this study, we present our experience of portal vein (PV) wedge resection and patch venoplasty using autologous or homologous vessel grafts for resecting perihilar cholangiocarcinoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, and distal bile duct cancer. Case 1 was 68-year-old male patient with type IV perihilar cholangiocarcinoma who underwent central bisectionectomy with caudate lobectomy and bile duct resection, and PV wedge resection and patch venoplasty with a cryopreserved iliac vein allograft patch. This patient survived 14 months after surgery. Case 2 was 77-year-old male patient with type IIIA perihilar cholangiocarcinoma who underwent left medial sectionectomy with caudate lobectomy, bile duct resection, and PV wedge resection and patch venoplasty with a cryopreserved iliac vein allograft patch. This patient survived 17 months after surgery. Case 3 was 54-year-old male patient with hepatitis B virus-associated liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma with PV tumor thrombus who underwent left hepatectomy. The PV wall defect was repaired with an autologous greater saphenous vein patch. This patient survived 11 months after surgery. Case 4 was 65-year-old female patient with distal bile duct cancer who underwent pylorus-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy, and main PV wedge resection and patch venoplasty with a cryopreserved iliac artery allograft patch. This patient survived 21 months after surgery. In conclusion, PV wedge resection and patch venoplasty can be used to facilitate complete tumor resection in patients undergoing various extents of surgical resection for hepatobiliary malignancies.
