Liver resection with thrombectomy for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma and tumour thrombus in the inferior vena cava or right atrium.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with tumour thrombus (TT) in the inferior vena cava (IVC) or right atrium (RA) is a rare advanced disease state with a poor prognosis. The aim of this study was to examine survival after surgical resection. METHODS:Patients with HCC and TT of either the IVC or RA, who underwent liver resection between February 1997 and July 2017, were included. Their short- and long-term outcomes and surgical details were analysed retrospectively. RESULTS:Thirty-seven patients were included; 16 patients had TT in the IVC below the diaphragm, eight had TT in the IVC above the diaphragm, and 13 had TT entering the RA. Twelve patients had advanced portal vein TT (portal vein invasion (Vp) greater than Vp3 and Vp4), ten had bilobar disease, and 12 had extrahepatic disease. There were no in-hospital deaths, although two patients died within 90?days. Median survival did not differ between patients who had resection with curative intent (18·7?months) and those with residual tumour in the lung only (20·7?months), but survival was poor for patients with residual tumour in the liver (8·3?months). CONCLUSION:Liver resection with thrombectomy for advanced HCC with TT in the IVC or RA is safe and feasible, leading to moderate survival.

Follicular thyroid carcinoma with tumour thrombus extending into superior vena cava and right atrium - A case report.

Project description:Intra-cardiac extension of tumour thrombus of follicular carcinoma of thyroid is uncommon. We report a case of advanced thyroid carcinoma where tumour thrombus was well profiled with CT scan and transesophageal echo images and extension was noted from SVC into right atrium, with clinical features of superior vena cava syndrome. The clinical significance of the "ring sign" is discussed.

Efficacy of Local Treatments for Hepatocellular Carcinoma Involving the Inferior Vena Cava and/or Right Atrium.

Project description:Major vessel invasion is frequently observed in locally advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The most commonly involved major vessel is the portal vein; however, approximately 4% of patients with HCC have inferior vena cava (IVC) and/or right atrium (RA) invasion. Although these conditions have dismal prognoses, local treatments have not been regularly administered because they may affect systemic circulation. Owing to recent technological advances, various local treatments including surgery and external radiotherapy have increasingly been performed in these patients. Since irradiating tumorous lesions in the liver while preserving normal tissues is possible and major vessels are relatively resistant to radiation, external radiotherapy has been a feasible palliative modality for treating vessel-invasive HCC. In addition, systemic fatal complications that were initially a cause of concern have become rare after radiotherapy. While invasive procedures such as extracorporeal circulation or hepatic vascular exclusion may be required, pioneering surgeons have performed surgical resections in selected patients and have obtained promising results. Surgery has shown the best survival outcomes compared to other treatment options including radiotherapy, but the possibility of perioperative morbidity should be considered. In addition, a combination of local treatment and novel systemic agents, which demonstrated better survival and response rates than sorafenib, is expected to maximize therapeutic effects. In this review, we have discussed the most recent treatments for HCC with IVC and/or RA involvement and have provided information intended to guide therapeutic decisions and facilitate future research.

Case Report: Radiotherapy Plus Immunotherapy and Lenvatinib for the Treatment of Recurrent Hepatocellular Carcinoma With a Right Atrium and Inferior Vena Cava Tumor Thrombus.

Project description:BackgroundThe treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with right atrium (RA) and inferior vena cava (IVC) tumor thrombi is challenging, with the standard treatment being not well established. Immunotherapy plus antiangiogenic therapy is a potentially effective treatment for patients with advanced HCC. Here, we described the case of a patient with HCC with RA and IVC tumor thrombi who achieved a successful response from radiotherapy and targeted therapy plus immunotherapy.Case summaryA 62-year-old women presented with severe bilateral lower extremity edema identified as recurrent HCC with RA and IVC tumor thrombi based on past medical history and computed tomography. The patient received palliative radiotherapy plus pembrolizumab and lenvatinib treatment and was relieved of disease symptoms of bilateral lower extremity edema. The HCC with RA and IVC tumor thrombi shrunk, and the progression-free survival of this patient was > seven months.ConclusionTumor thrombus-directed radiotherapy plus concurrent immunotherapy and targeted therapy might be a feasible and safe approach for patients with HCC with RA and IVC tumor thrombi.

Renal Angiomyolipoma with Tumor Thrombus in the Inferior Vena Cava and Right Atrium Accompanied by Renal Cell Carcinoma: A Case Report.

Project description:Background: Renal angiomyolipoma (AML) without local invasion is generally considered benign. However, it may extend to the renal sinus, even the renal vein, or the inferior vena cava (IVC). In patients with non-tuberous sclerosis complex, coexistence of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and renal AML is uncommon. Case presentation: A 72-year-old woman was incidentally found to have a solitary right renal mass with an IVC thrombus extending into the right atrium during a routine health checkup. Robot-assisted laparoscopic radical nephrectomy and thrombectomy were successfully performed through adequate preoperative examination and preparation. Two tumor lesions were found and pathologically confirmed as renal AML and RCC, and the tumor thrombus was derived from the renal AML. During the one-year follow-up period, no signs of recurrence or metastatic disease were observed. Conclusions: Renal AML with a tumor thrombus in the IVC and right atrium accompanied by RCC may occur, although rarely. In clinical practice, if preoperative manifestations differ from those of common diseases, rare diseases must be considered to avoid missed diagnoses. In addition, adequate examination and multidisciplinary discussions before making a diagnosis are necessary. For a level 4 tumor thrombus with no infringement of the venous wall, adoption of robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery, without extracorporeal circulation technology, is feasible.

Surgical management of ovarian carcinosarcoma with inferior vena cava extension into the right atrium.

Project description:Gynecological carcinosarcomas are aggressive tumors with rare occurrence and high rates of metastases. We present the case of a 49-year-old woman with vaginal bleeding and abdominal distension who was found to have a large ovarian carcinosarcoma invading the gonadal vein and inferior vena cava (IVC) and extending into right atrium (RA). She underwent gynecologic tumor resection, IVC cavotomy and en bloc resection of tumor/thrombus through the RA. Use of intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography helped assess extent and mobility of mass in the RA to guide surgical approach. This case posed unique challenges with regard to management of induction, hemodynamics and coagulopathy.

Laparoscopic right posterior sectionectomy for a large hepatocellular carcinoma close to inferior vena cava.

Project description:Approximately 20% of hepatocellular carcinomas (HCC) occur in noncirrhotic livers. Resection may be considered for patients with HCC, provided sufficient future liver remnant is available, regardless of the tumor size. Tumors located posteriorly near the right hepatic vein (RHV), or inferior vena cava can be managed through anterior or caudal approaches. RHV is typically conserved during right posterior sectionectomy. When a large posteriorly placed tumor causes chronic compression on RHV, the right anterior section drainage is redirected preferentially to the middle hepatic vein. The division of RHV in such instances does not cause congestion of segments 8 and 5. The technical complexity of laparoscopic right posterior sectionectomy arises from the large transection surface, positioned horizontally. We describe in this multimedia article, a case of large HCC in segments 6 and 7, which was successfully treated using laparoscopic anatomic right posterior sectionectomy.
