Left renal vein graft and in situ hepatic perfusion in hepatectomy for complete tumor invasion of hepatic veins: hemodynamic optimization and surgical technique.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Assessing hepatic vein reconstruction using a left renal vein graft and in situ hypothermic liver perfusion in an extended liver resection.

Methods

Patients included in this study were those with liver tumors undergoing curative surgery with resection and reconstruction of hepatic veins. Hepatic vein was reconstructed using a left renal vein graft. We describe the technical aspects of liver resection and vascular reconstruction, the key aspects of hemodynamic management, and the use of in situ hypothermic liver preservations during liver transection (prior to and during vascular clamping).

Results

The right hepatic vein was reconstructed with a median left renal venal graft length of 4.5 cm (IQR, 3.1-5.2). Creatinine levels remained within normal limits in the immediate postoperative phase and during follow-up. Median blood loss was 500 ml (IQR, 300-1500) and in situ perfusion with cold ischemia was 67 min (IQR, 60.5-77.5). The grafts remained patent during the follow-up with no signs of thrombosis. No major postoperative complications were observed.

Conclusion

Left renal vein graft for the reconstruction of a hepatic vein and in situ hypothermic liver perfusion are feasible during extended liver resection.

First Robotic Hepatectomy With Middle Hepatic Vein Reconstruction Using ePTFE Graft for Hepatic Adenoma: A Case Report.

Project description:Surgical resection remains the best choice for the treatment of liver tumors. Hepatectomy combined with artificial vascular reconstruction has been proven as an alternative to treating tumors involving the main hepatic veins. As the cutting-edge surgical technique, robotic liver surgery is a novel procedure expanding the field of minimally invasive approaches, especially in complex reconstruction. This study reports, for the first time, on a robotic hepatectomy with middle hepatic vein (MHV) reconstruction using an expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) graft for a patient with hepatic adenoma. The tumor, which was located in segment 8, was adjacent to the MHV. Robot-assisted resection of segment 4 and partial segment 8, and MHV reconstruction using a ePTFE graft were performed. During the post-operative examination and follow-up, the blood flow of the ePTFE graft was patent, and liver function recovered well. Thus, robotic hepatectomy with MHV reconstruction is a safe, minimally invasive, and precise surgery that may provide a novel approach for patients with liver tumors that are invading or adjacent to the main hepatic veins.

Influence of middle hepatic vein resection during right or left hepatectomy on post hepatectomy outcomes.

Project description:Backgrounds/aimsMiddle hepatic vein (MHV) is usually preserved as a part of the right or left hepatectomy in order preserve the venous outflow of remnant liver. The aim of this study was to evaluate if resection of MHV could influence post-resection outcomes of standard right or left hepatectomy.MethodsPatients who underwent standard right or left hepatectomy between January 2015 and December 2019 were included. Anatomical remnant liver volumes were measured retrospectively using the Hermes workstation (Hermes Medical Solutions AB, Stockholm, Sweden). Uni- and multi-variate analyses were performed to assess the difference in outcomes of those with preservation of MHV and those without preservation.ResultsA total of 144 patients were included. Right hepatectomy was performed for 114 (79.2%) and left hepatectomy was performed for 30 (20.8%) patients. MHV was resected for 13 (9.0%) in addition to the standard right or left hepatectomy. Median remnant liver volume was significantly higher in the MHV resected group (p < 0.01). There was no significant difference in serum level of bilirubin, international normalized ratio, alanine aminotransferase, creatinine on postoperative day 1, 3, 5, or 10, ≥ grade IIIa complications (p = 0.44), or 90-day mortality (p = 0.41). On multivariable analysis, resection of the MHV did not influence the incidence of post hepatectomy liver failure (p = 0.52).ConclusionsResection of the MHV at standard right or left hepatectomy did not have a negative impact on postoperative outcomes of patients with adequate remnant liver volume.

Hemodynamic Influence on Smooth Muscle Cell Kinetics and Phenotype During Early Vein Graft Adaptation.

Project description:Pathologic vascular adaptation following local injury is the primary driver for accelerated intimal hyperplasia and an occlusive phenotype. Smooth muscle cell (SMC) proliferation within the wall, and migration into the developing intima, is a major component of this remodeling response. The primary objective in the current study was to investigate the effect of the local biomechanical forces on early vein graft adaptation, specifically focusing on the spatial and temporal response of SMC proliferation and conversion from a contractile to synthetic architecture. Taking advantage of the differential adaptation that occurs during exposure to divergent flow environments, vein grafts were implanted in rabbits to create two distinct flow environments and harvested at times ranging from 2 h to 28 days. Using an algorithm for the virtual reconstruction of unfixed, histologic specimens, immunohistochemical tracking of DNA synthesis, and high-throughput transcriptional analysis, the spatial and temporal changes in graft morphology, cell proliferation, and SMC phenotype were catalogued. Notable findings include a burst of cell proliferation at 7 days post-implantation, which was significantly augmented by exposure to a reduced flow environment. Compared to the adjacent media, proliferation rates were 3-fold greater in the intima, and a specific spatial distribution of these proliferating cells was identified, with a major peak in the sub-endothelial region and a second peak centering on the internal elastic lamina. Genomic markers of a contractile SMC phenotype were reduced as early as 2 h post-implantation and reached a nadir at 7 days. Network analysis of upstream regulatory pathways identified GATA6 and KLF5 as important transcription factors that regulate this shift in SMC phenotype.

Oleacein Intestinal Permeation and Metabolism in Rats Using an In Situ Perfusion Technique.

Project description:Oleacein (OLEA) is one of the most important phenolic compounds in extra virgin olive oil in terms of concentration and health-promoting properties, yet there are insufficient data on its absorption and metabolism. Several non-human models have been developed to assess the intestinal permeability of drugs, among them, single-pass intestinal perfusion (SPIP), which is commonly used to investigate the trans-membrane transport of drugs in situ. In this study, the SPIP model and simultaneous luminal blood sampling were used to study the absorption and metabolism of OLEA in rats. Samples of intestinal fluid and mesenteric blood were taken at different times and the ileum segment was excised at the end of the experiment for analysis by LC-ESI-LTQ-Orbitrap-MS. OLEA was mostly metabolized by phase I reactions, undergoing hydrolysis and oxidation, and metabolite levels were much higher in the plasma than in the lumen. The large number of metabolites identified and their relatively high abundance indicates an important intestinal first-pass effect during absorption. According to the results, OLEA is well absorbed in the intestine, with an intestinal permeability similar to that of the highly permeable model compound naproxen. No significant differences were found in the percentage of absorbed OLEA and naproxen (48.98 ± 12.27% and 43.96 ± 7.58%, respectively).

Hepatic and portal vein transection by vascular stapler in open living donor hepatectomy - A retrospective cohort study.

Project description:BackgroundIn an effort to increase donor safety in living donor liver transplantation, the utilization of vascular staplers for the division of the right portal and hepatic veins in patients undergoing right lobe liver donation for living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) was implemented. In here we report our experience with vascular staplers in patients undergoing LDLT and evaluate the subsequent feasibility and safety for donors.Material and methods17 cases of living donor liver transplant were retrospectively analyzed. The right portal vein was transected directly at the bifurcation of the main portal vein, the right hepatic vein was resected directly at the wall of the inferior vena cava using a vascular stapler device.ResultsWe registered a complication rate of 41.2% (7 donors). According to the Clavien-Dindo classification, grade II and grade III complications were each observed in 5.9% and grade IIIb complications in 29.4%, whereas catastrophic bleeding, complications with residual disability or the necessity of re-laparatomy did not occur. Upon 6 weeks, all donors were able to return to their previous occupation in fully recovered condition.ConclusionsThe utilization of vascular staplers in donors during open LDLT presents an encouraging alternative to manual over-sewing of vascular stumps. Apart from its timesaving aspect, the technique reduces the potential risk of life-threatening clamp slippage with subsequent uncontrolled blood loss.

Percutaneous hepatic melphalan perfusion: Single center experience of procedural characteristics, hemodynamic response, complications, and postoperative recovery.

Project description:BackgroundPercutaneous hepatic melphalan perfusion (PHMP) for the selective treatment of hepatic metastases is known to be associated with procedural hypotension and coagulation disorders. Studies on anesthetic management, perioperative course, complications, and postoperative recovery in the intensive care unit (ICU) have not been published.MethodsIn a retrospective observational study, we analyzed consecutive patients who were admitted for PHMP over a 6-year period (2016-2021). Analyses included demographic, treatment, and outcome data with regard to short-term complications until ICU discharge.ResultsFifty-three PHMP procedures of 16 patients were analyzed. In all of the cases, procedure-related hypotension required the median (range) highest noradrenaline infusion rate of 0.5 (0.17-2.1) μg kg min-1 and fluid resuscitation volume of 5 (3-14) liters. Eighty-four PHMP-related complications were observed in 33 cases (62%), of which 9 cases (27%) involved grade III and IV complications. Complications included airway constriction (requiring difficult airway management), vascular catheterization issues (which resulted in the premature termination of PHMP, as well as to the postponement of PHMP and to the performance of endovascular bleeding control after PHMP), and renal failure that required hemodialysis. Discharge from the ICU was possible after one day in most cases (n = 45; 85%); however, in 12 cases (23%), prolonged mechanical ventilation was required. There were no procedure-related fatalities.ConclusionsPHMP is frequently associated with challenging cardiovascular conditions and complications that require profound anesthetic skills. For safety reasons, PHMP should only be performed in specialized centers that provide high-level hospital infrastructures and interdisciplinary expertise.

Extreme hepatectomy with modified ALPPS in a rat model: gradual portal vein restriction associated with hepatic artery restriction.

Project description:Background & aimAssociating liver partition and portal vein ligation (PVL) for staged hepatectomy (ALPPS) is a creative strategy for enlarging the future liver remnant (FLR) and increasing the tumor resectability rate. However, the indications for ALPPS must have a certain limit when the FLR is too small. We aimed to establish a modified ALPPS model with more widen applicability in rats.MethodsAn extreme ALPPS model was established in rodents with only a 6.5% FLR. The portal vein (PV) was subjected to restriction to different degrees, then the portal vein pressure (PVP) was measured. Then, different modifications of ALPPS, including hepatic artery restriction (HAR), gradual portal vein restriction (GPVR), and GPVR-associated HAR (HAR+GPVR), were applied in the extreme ALPPS models.ResultsPVL or PVR provoked an immediate increase in the PVP. The PVP in the PVR -1.28 mm, PVR -0.81 mm, PVR -0.63 mm, and PVL groups was 11.05±1.57 cmH2O, 16.18±1.92 cmH2O, 20.66±1.99 cmH2O, and 24.10±3.33 cmH2O, respectively, and the corresponding 3-day survival rate was 100%, 90.09%, 36.33% and 0, respectively. Then, in the extreme ALPPS model, the growth ratio of the FLR in the control, HAR, GPVR, and HAR+GPVR groups was 0.43±0.21, 0.50±0.16, 4.80±0.86, and 7.40±2.56, and as a consequence, the corresponding 30-day survival rate was 9.09%, 15.38%, 84.61% and 92.90%, respectively.ConclusionALPPS itself has a limit, and high PVP after PVL contributes to postoperative death in the extreme ALPPS model. Furthermore, a modified method for extreme ALPPS is proposed, i.e., GPVR+HAR in place of PVL, which significantly improves the survival rate of extreme hepatectomy in rat models.

Totally laparoscopic anatomical hepatectomy exposing the major hepatic veins from the root side: a case of the right anterior sectorectomy (with video).

Project description:Laparoscopic hepatectomy has rapidly evolved recently; however, laparoscopic anatomical hepatectomy has yet to become widely used, although anatomical hepatectomy is ideal, especially for curative treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma, and is widely accepted via open approach. This is because good-experienced skills, for example, exposing Glissonean pedicles and hepatic veins on the cutting plane, are required in order to perform anatomical hepatectomy via a pure laparoscopic approach. We obtained good results for various totally laparoscopic anatomical hepatectomies using the standardized techniques. We exposed the major hepatic veins from the root side by utilizing the unique view from the caudal side in the laparoscopic approach, and moved CUSA from the root side toward the peripheral side to avoid splitting the bifurcation of the hepatic vein. We performed totally laparoscopic anatomical hepatectomy for 47 patients from August, 2008, to December, 2012 (Table 1). In most types of anatomical hepatectomy, the mean blood loss was <500 ml. Conversion to open surgery was required in two patients. Postoperative complications were prolonged ascites in two, peroneal palsy in two, and biloma in one. Mortality was zero. The embedded video demonstrates totally laparoscopic right anterior sectorectomy. In conclusion, our standardized techniques make laparoscopic anatomical hepatectomy more feasible.
