| 1 | Management of hepatocellular carcinoma with portal vein tumor thrombosis: Review and update at 2016显示文摘Portal vein tumor thrombosis(PVTT) is a common phenomenon in hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC). Compared to HCC without PVTT, HCC with PVTT is characterized by an aggressive disease course, worse hepatic function, a higher chance of complications related to portal hypertension and poorer tolerance to treatment. Conventionally, HCC with PVTT is grouped together with metastatic HCC during the planning of its management, and most patients are offered palliative treatment with sorafenib or other systemic agents. As a result, most data on the management of HCC with PVTT comes from subgroup analyses or retrospective series. In the past few years, there have been several updates on management of HCC with PVTT. First, it is evident that HCC with PVTT consists of heterogeneous subgroups with different prognoses. Different classifications have been proposed to stage the degree of portal vein invasion/thrombosis, suggesting that different treatment modalities may be individualized to patients with different risks. Second, more studies indicate that more aggressive treatment, including surgical resection or locoregional treatment, may benefit select HCC patients with PVTT. In this review, we aim to discussthe recent conceptual changes and summarize the data on the management of HCC with PVTT. | Stephen L Chan Charing CN Chong Anthony WH Chan Darren MC Poon Kenneth SH Chok | 2016 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2016，22，32： | 44 |
| 2 | High-intensity focused ultrasound ablation:An effective bridging therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma patients显示文摘AIM:To analyze whether high-intensity focused ultrasound(HIFU) ablation is an effective bridging therapy for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).METHODS:From January 2007 to December 2010,49 consecutive HCC patients were listed for liver transplantation(UCSF criteria).The median waiting time for transplantation was 9.5 mo.Twenty-nine patients received transarterial chemoembolization(TACE) as a bringing therapy and 16 patients received no treatment before transplantation.Five patients received HIFU ablation as a bridging therapy.Another five patients with the same tumor staging(within the UCSF criteria) who received HIFU ablation but not on the transplant list were included for comparison.Patients were comparable in terms of Child-Pugh and model for end-stage liver disease scores,tumor size and number,and cause of cirrhosis.RESULTS:The HIFU group and TACE group showed no difference in terms of tumor size and tumor number.One patient in the HIFU group and no patient in the TACE group had gross ascites.The median hospital stay was 1 d(range,1-21 d) in the TACE group and two days(range,1-9 d) in the HIFU group(P < 0.000).No HIFU-related complication occurred.In the HIFU group,nine patients(90%) had complete response and one patient(10%) had partial response to the treatment.In the TACE group,only one patient(3%) had response to the treatment while 14 patients(48%) had stable disease and 14 patients(48%) had progressive disease(P = 0.00).Seven patients in the TACE group and no patient in the HIFU group dropped out from the transplant waiting list(P = 0.559).CONCLUSION:HIFU ablation is safe and effective in the treatment of HCC for patients with advanced cirrhosis.It may reduce the drop-out rate of liver transplant candidate. | Tan To Cheung Sheung Tat Fan See Ching Chan Kenneth SH Chok Ferdinand SK Chu Caroline R Jenkins Regina CL Lo James YY Fung Albert CY Chan William W Sharr Simon HY Tsang Wing Chiu Dai Ronnie TP Poon Chung Mau Lo | 2013 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2013，19，20： | 23 |
| 3 | Strategies to increase the resectability of hepatocellular carcinoma显示文摘Hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) is best treated by liver transplantation, but the applicability of transplantation is greatly limited. Tumor resection in partial hepatectomy is hence resorted to. However, in most parts of the world, only 20%-30% of HCCs are resectable. The main reason for such a low resectability is a future liver remnant too small to be sufficient for the patient. To allow more HCC patients to undergo curative hepatectomy, a variety of ways have been developed to increase the resectability of HCC, mainly ways to increase the future liver remnants in patients through hypertrophy. They include portal vein embolization, sequential transarterial chemoembolization and portal vein embolization, staged hepatectomy, two-staged hepatectomy with portal vein ligation, and Associating Liver Partition and Portal Vein Ligation in Staged Hepatectomy. Herein we review, describe and evaluate these different ways, ways that can be life-saving. | Wong Hoi She Kenneth SH Chok | 2015 | World Journal of Hepatology2015，7，18： | 9 |
| 4 | Pancreaticoduodenectomy with vascular reconstruction for adenocarcinoma of the pancreas with borderline resectability显示文摘AIM:To analyze whether pancreaticoduodenectomy with simultaneous resection of tumor-involved vessels is a safe approach with acceptable patient survival.METHODS:Between January 2001 and March 2012,136 patients received pancreaticoduodenectomy for adenocarcinoma at our hospital.Seventy-eight patients diagnosed with pancreatic head carcinoma were included in this study.Among them,46 patients received standard pancreaticoduodenectomy(group 1)and32 patients received pancreaticoduodenectomy with simultaneous resection of the portal vein or the superior mesenteric vein or artery(group 2)followed by reconstruction.The immediate surgical outcomes and survivals were compared between the groups.Fifty-five patients with unresectable adenocarcinoma of the pancreas without liver metastasis who received only bypassoperations(group 3)were selected for additional survival comparison.RESULTS:The median ages of patients were 67 years(range:37-82 years)in group 1,and 63 years(range:35-86 years)in group 2.All group 2 patients had resection of the portal vein or the superior mesenteric vein and three patients had resection of the superior mesenteric artery.The pancreatic fistula formation rate was21.7%(10/46)in group 1 and 15.6%(5/32)in group2(P=0.662).Two hospital deaths(4.3%)occurred in group 1 and one hospital death(3.1%)occurred in group 2(P=0.641).The one-year,three-year and five-year overall survival rates in group 1 were 71.1%,23.6%and 13.5%,respectively.The corresponding rates in group 2 were 70.6%,33.3%and 22.2%(P=0.815).The one-year survival rate in group 3 was13.8%.Pancreaticoduodenectomy with simultaneous vascular resection was safe for pancreatic head adenocarcinoma.CONCLUSION:The short-term and survival outcomes with simultaneous resection were not compromised when compared with that of standard pancreaticoduodenectomy. | Tan To Cheung Ronnie TP Poon Kenneth SH Chok Albert CY Chan Simon HY Tsang Wing Chiu Dai See Ching Chan Sheung Tat Fan Chung Mau Lo | 2014 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2014，20，46： | 8 |
| 5 | Rapid measurement of indocyanine green retention by pulse spectrophotometry: a validation study in 70 patients with Child-Pugh A cirrhosis before hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma显示文摘BACKGROUND: The indocyanine green (ICG) retention test is the most popular liver function test for selecting patients for major hepatectomy. Traditionally, it is done using spectrophotometry with serial blood sampling. The newly- developed pulse spectrophotometry is a faster alternative, but its accuracy on Child-Pugh A cirrhotic patients undergoing hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma has not been well documented. This study aimed to assess the accuracy of the LiMON , one of the pulse spectrophotometry systems, in measuring preoperative ICG retention in these patients and to devise an easy formula for conversion of the results so that they can be compared with classical literature records where ICG retention was measured by the traditional method. METHODS: We measured the liver function of 70 Child-Pugh A cirrhotic patients before hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma from September 2008 to January 2009. ICG retention at 15 minutes measured by traditional spectrophotometry (ICGR15) was compared with ICG retention at 15 minutes measured by the LiMON (ICGR15(L)). RESULTS: The median ICGR15 was 14.7% (5.6%-32%) and the median ICGR15(L) was 10.4% (1.2%-28%). The mean difference between them was -4.3606. There was a strong correlation between ICGR15 and ICGR15(L) (correlation coefficient, 0.844; 95% confidence interval, 0.762-0.899). The following formula was devised: ICGR15=1.16×ICGR15(L)+2.73.CONCLUSIONS: The LiMON provides a fast and repeatable way to measure ICG retention at 15 minutes, but with constant underestimation of the real value. Therefore, when comparing results obtained by traditional spectrophotometry and the LiMON, adjustment of results from the latter is necessary, and this can be done with a simple mathematical calculation using the above formula. | Tan To Cheung See Ching Chan Kenneth SH Chok Albert CY Chan Wan Ching Yu Ronnie TP Poon Chung Mau Lo Sheung Tat Fan | 2012 | Hepatobiliary & Pancreatic Diseases International2012，11，3： | 8 |
| 6 | Management of recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma after liver transplant显示文摘Hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) is the leading cause of deaths in patients with hepatitis B or C, and its incidence has increased considerably over the past decade and is still on the rise. Liver transplantation(LT) provides the best chance of cure for patients with HCC and liver cirrhosis. With the implementation of the MELD exception system for patients with HCC waitlisted for LT, the number of recipients of LT is increasing, so is the number of patients who have recurrence of HCC after LT. Treatments for intrahepatic recurrence after transplantation and after other kinds of surgery are more or less the same, but long-term cure of posttransplant recurrence is rarely seen as it is a 'systemic' disease. Nonetheless, surgicalresection has been shown to be effective in prolonging patient survival despite the technical difficulty in resecting graft livers. Besides surgical resection, different kinds of treatment are also in use, including transarterial chemoembolization, radiofrequency ablation, highintensity focused ultrasound ablation, and stereotactic body radiation therapy. Targeted therapy and modulation of immunosuppressants are also adopted to treat the deadly disease. | Kenneth SH Chok | 2015 | World Journal of Hepatology2015，7，8： | 7 |
| 7 | Survival outcomes of right-lobe living donor liver transplantation for patients with high Model for End-stage Liver Disease scores显示文摘BACKGROUND: Controversy exists over whether living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) should be offered to patients with high Model for End-stage Liver Disease (MELD) scores. This study tried to determine whether a high MELD score would result in inferior outcomes of right-lobe LDLT. METHODS: Among 411 consecutive patients who received right-lobe LDLT at our center, 143 were included in this study. The patients were divided into two groups according to their MELD scores: a high-score group (MELD score ≥25; n=75) and a low-score group (MELD score <25; n=68). Their demographic data and perioperative conditions were compared. Univariable and multivariable analyses were performed to identify risk factors affecting patient survival. RESULTS: In the high-score group, more patients required preoperative intensive care unit admission (49.3% vs 2.9%; P<0.001), mechanical ventilation (21.3% vs 0%; P<0.001), or hemodialysis (13.3% vs 0%; P=0.005); the waiting time before LDLT was shorter (4 vs 66 days; P<0.001); more blood was transfused during operation (7 vs 2 units; P<0.001); patients stayed longer in the intensive care unit (6 vs 3 days; P<0.001) and hospital (21 vs 15 days; P=0.015) after transplantation;more patients developed early postoperative complications (69.3% vs 50.0%; P=0.018); and values of postoperative peak blood parameters were higher. However, the two groups had comparable hospital mortality. Graft survival and patient overall survival at one year (94.7% vs 95.6%; 95.9% vs 96.9%), three years (91.9% vs 92.6%; 93.2% vs 95.3%), and five years (90.2% vs 90.2%; 93.2% vs 95.3%) were also similar between the groups. CONCLUSIONS: Although the high-score group had signifi-cantly more early postoperative complications, the two groups had comparable hospital mortality and similar satisfactory rates of graft survival and patient overall survival. Therefore, a high MELD score should not be a contraindication to right-lobe LDLT if donor risk and recipient benefit are taken into full account. | Kenneth SH Chok See Ching Chan James YY Fung Tan To Cheung Albert CY Chan Sheung Tat Fan Chung Mau Lo | 2013 | Hepatobiliary & Pancreatic Diseases International2013，12，3： | 6 |
| 8 | Acute pancreatitis induced by transarterial chemoembolization:a single-center experience of over 1500 cases显示文摘BACKGROUND: Acute pancreatitis is a relatively rare but potentially lethal complication after transarterial chemotherapy. This study aimed to review the complications such as acute pancreatitis after transarterial chemotherapy with or without embolization for hepatocellular carcinoma.METHODS: A total of 1632 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma who had undergone transarterial chemoembolization from January 2000 to February 2014 in a single-center were reviewed retrospectively. We investigated the potential complications of transarterial chemoembolization, such as acute pancreatitis and acute pancreatitis-related complications.RESULTS: Of the 1632 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma who had undergone 5434 transarterial chemoembolizations, 1328 were male and 304 female. The median age of these patients was 61 years. Most(79.6%) of the patients suffered from HBV-related hepatocellular carcinoma. The median tumor size was 5.2 cm. Of the 1632 patients, 145 patients underwent transarterial chemoembolization with doxorubicin eluting bead, making up a total of 538 episodes. The remaining patients underwent transarterial chemoembolization with cisplatin. Seven(0.4%) patients suffered from acute pancreatitis postchemoembolization. Six patients had chemoembolization with doxorubicin and one had chemoembolization with cisplatin. Patients who received doxorubicin eluting bead had a higher risk of acute pancreatitis [6/145(4.1%) vs 1/1487(0.1%), P<0.0001]. Two patients had anatomical arte-rial variations. Four patients developed acute pancreatitisrelated complications including necrotizing pancreatitis(n=3) and pseudocyst formation(n=1). All of the 4 patients resolved after the use of antibiotics and other conservative treatment. Three patients had further transarterial chemoembolization without any complication.CONCLUSIONS: Acute pancreatitis after transarterial chemoembolization could result in serious complications, especially after treatment with doxorubicin eluting bead. Continuation of current treatment with transarterial chemoembolization after acute pancreatitis is feasible providing the initial attack is completely resolved. | Wong Hoi She Albert CY Chan Tan To Cheung Kenneth SH Chok See Ching Chan Ronnie TP Poon Chung Mau Lo | 2016 | Hepatobiliary & Pancreatic Diseases International2016，15，1： | 6 |
| 9 | Modulation of graft vascular inflow guided by flowmetry and manometry in liver transplantation显示文摘BACKGROUND:Survival of the partial graft after living donor liver transplantation owes much to its tremendous regenerative ability.With excellent venous outflow capacity,a graft within a wide range of graft-to-standard-liver-volume ratios can cope with portal hypertension that is common in liver transplant recipients.However,when the ratio range is exceeded,modulation of graft vascular inflow becomes necessary for graft survival.The interplay between graft-to-standard-liver-volume ratio and portal pressure,in the presence of portosystemic shunt or otherwise,requires individualized modulation of graft portal and arterial inflows.Boosting of portal inflow by shunt ligation can be guided by transonic flowmetry,whereas muting of portal inflow by splenic artery ligation can be monitored by portal electronic manometry.METHOD:We describe four cases to illustrate the above.RESULTS:One patient had hepatic artery thrombosis resulting from splenic artery steal syndrome which was the sequela of small-for-size syndrome.Emergency splenic artery ligation and re-anastomosis of the hepatic artery successfully muted the portal inflow and boosted the hepatic arterial inflow.Another patient with portal vein thrombosis underwent thrombendvenectomy.Portal inflow was boosted with ligation of portosystemic shunt,which is often present in these patients with portal hypertension.The coexistence of splenic aneurysm and splenorenal shunt required ligation of both in the third patient.The fourth patient,with portal pressure and flow monitoring,avoided ligation of a coronary vein which became a main portal inflow after portal thrombendvenectomy.CONCLUSION:Management of graft inflow modulation guided selectively by transonic flowmetry or portal manometry was described. | See Ching Chan Chung Mau Lo Kenneth SH Chok William W Sharr Tan To Cheung Simon HY Tsang Albert CY Chan Sheung Tat Fan | 2011 | Hepatobiliary & Pancreatic Diseases International2011，10，6： | 5 |
| 10 | Outcomes of right-lobe and left-lobe living-donor liver transplantations using small-for-size grafts显示文摘AIM To analyze the outcomes of living-donor liver transplantation(LDLT) using left-lobe(LL) or right-lobe(RL) small-for-size(SFS) grafts.METHODS Prospectively collected data of adult patients who underwent LDLT at our hospital in the period from January 2003 to December 2013 were reviewed. The patients were divided into the RL-LDLT group and the LL-LDLT group. The two groups were compared in terms of short-and long-term outcomes, including incidence of postoperative complication, graft function, graft survival, and patient survival. A SFS graft was defined as a graft with a ratio of graft weight(GW) to recipient standard liver volume(RSLV)(GW/RSLV) of < 50%. The Urata formula was used to estimate RSLV.RESULTS Totally 218 patients were included for analysis, with 199 patients in the RL-LDLT group and 19 patients in the LL-LDLT group. The two groups were similar in terms of age(median, 53 years in the RL-LDLT group and 52 years in the LL-LDLT group, P = 0.997) but had significantly different ratios of men to women(165:34 in the RL-LDLT group and 8:11 in the LL-LDLT group, P < 0.0001). The two groups were also significantly different in GW(P < 0.0001), GW/RSLV(P < 0.0001), and graft cold ischemic time(P = 0.007). When it comes to postoperative complication, the groups were comparable(P = 0.105). Five patients died in hospital,4(2%) in the RL-LDLT group and 1(5.3%) in the LLLDLT group(P = 0.918). There were 38 graft losses, 33(16.6%) in the RL-LDLT group and 5(26.3%) in the LL-LDLT group(P = 0.452). The 5-year graft survival rate was significantly better in the RL-LDLT group(95.2% vs 89.5%, P = 0.049). The two groups had similar 5-year patient survival rates(RL-LDLT: 86.8%, LL-LDLT: 89.5%, P = 0.476).CONCLUSION The use of SFS graft in LDLT requires careful tailormade surgical planning and meticulous operation. LLLDLT can be a good alternative to RL-LDLT with similar recipient outcomes but a lower donor risk. Further research into different patient conditions is needed in order to validate the use of LL graft. | Wong Hoi She Kenneth SH Chok James YY Fung Albert CY Chan Chung Mau Lo | 2017 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2017，23，23： | 4 |
| 11 | Survival analysis of breast cancer liver metastasis treated by hepatectomy: A propensity score analysis for Chinese women in Hong Kong显示文摘Background: Survival of patients with breast cancer liver metastasis is very poor. This study aimed to analyze the survival outcome of hepatectomy for this patient population. Methods: From January 1995 to December 2014, 2522 patients with liver cancer received hepatectomy at our hospital. Twenty-one of them, all female, received the operation for breast cancer liver metastasis. Performance was compared with patients with colorectal liver metastasis treated with hepatectomy after propensity score analysis in a ratio of 1:3. Results: Twenty-one patients received hepatectomy for breast cancer. After propensity score matching, 63 patients who had hepatectomy for colorectal cancer were selected for comparison. There was no significant difference in immediate or short-term outcomes between the two groups of patients in terms of operative time, blood loss and surgical morbidities. All patients with breast cancer had R0 resection. No hospital death occurred. After hepatectomy, the 1-, 3- and 5-year overall survival rates were 100.0%, 58.9% and 58.9% respectively in patients with breast cancer. The 1-, 3- and 5-year overall survival rates were 95.0%, 57.2% and 39.7% respectively in patients with colorectal cancer (P = 0.572). On multivariate analysis, triple negative status was the only independent poor prognostic factor in breast cancer liver metastasis (OR = 6.411;95% CI: 1.351–30.435;P = 0.019). Conclusions: Hepatectomy is a safe and effective way of treating breast cancer liver metastasis at experienced centers where multidisciplinary adjuvant treatments are available. It can be considered more frequently as part of the multidisciplinary care for this patient population. | Tan To Cheung Kenneth SH Chok Albert CY Chan Simon HY Tsang Wing Chiu Dai Thomas CC Yau Ava Kwong Chung Mau Lo | 2019 | Hepatobiliary & Pancreatic Diseases International2019，18，5： | 3 |
| 12 | High-intensity focused ultrasound ablation as a bridging therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma patients awaiting liver transplantation显示文摘The scarcity of liver grafts in Asia leads to a significant dropout of patients from liver transplant waiting lists, particularly patients with hepatocellular carcinoma and a low model for end-stage liver disease score. In order to reduce dropping out, different bridging therapies are employed. We report the use of high-intensity focused ultrasound ablation as a bridging therapy for a patient with hepatocellular carcinoma of stage two and an extremely low platelet count (20×10 9 /L). The ablation was successful. Blood tests showed that his liver function was similar before and after the treatment. No adhesion was encountered in the liver transplantation performed six months later. | Tan To Cheung Kenneth SH Chok Regina CL Lo William W Sharr See Ching Chan Ronnie TP Poon Sheung Tat Fan Chung Mau Lo | 2012 | Hepatobiliary & Pancreatic Diseases International2012，11，5： | 3 |
| 13 | The impact of family history of hepatocellular carcinoma on its patients' survival显示文摘BACKGROUND:Family history of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) has been identified as a risk factor for the development of the disease.The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of such a history on HCC patients' survival.METHODS:Data of all HCC patients(n=4532) managed at our center from 1989 to 2008 were prospectively collected.The patients were quizzed on their various characteristics including family HCC history.RESULTS:Totally 475(10.48%) patients had a family history of HCC.They presented the disease at a significantly earlier age(median 53 vs 59 years,P<0.0001) and at an earlier stage(the United Network for Organ Sharing staging system).They had significantly better liver function in terms of ChildPugh classification and serum albumin and bilirubin levels.Significantly more of them presented the disease without symptoms(44.0% vs 29.4%,P<0.0001).They also had significantly better overall survival under these specifications:patients in the whole study cohort,patients who had minor hepatectomy,patients with stage I disease,patients with stage II disease,and patients with stage III disease.CONCLUSIONS:Contrary to what is generally believed,we found in this study cohort that patients with a family history of HCC had better overall survival than those without such a history.We believe this was in part due to earlier diagnosis of the disease and better liver function in this group of patients.However,the effects of genetic factors on the risk of HCC cannot be overlooked and are yet to be identified. | Wing Chiu Dai Sheung Tat Fan Tan To Cheung Kenneth SH Chok Albert CY Chan Simon HY Tsang Ronnie TP Poon Chung Mau Lo | 2012 | Hepatobiliary & Pancreatic Diseases International2012，11，2： | 2 |
| 14 | Hepatopancreatoduodenectomy for advanced hepatobiliary malignancies: a single-center experience显示文摘BACKGROUND:Hepatopancreatoduodenectomy is a complicated and challenging procedure but necessary for curative resection for advanced hepatobiliary malignancies.This retrospective study was to examine the safety and survival outcomes of hepatopancreatoduodenectomy in our center.METHODS:Prospectively collected data of 12 patients who underwent hepatopancreatoduodenectomy for advanced hepatobiliary malignancies in our hospital from January 1998 to December 2014 were analyzed.The primary endpoints are treatment-related morbidity and mortality and the secondary endpoints are overall survival and disease-free survival.RESULTS:Curative resection was achieved in 11(91.7%) patients.Complications developed in 10(83.3%) patients.Three hospital deaths resulted from multiorgan failure secondary to postoperative pancreatic fistula or hepaticojejunostomy leakage.Six of the nine remaining patients had disease recurrence.The nine patients had a median survival of 39.8(5.3-151.8) months.The 1-,3- and 5-year overall survival rates were 66.7%,55.6% and 27.8%,respectively.The corresponding disease-free survival rates were 55.6%,44.4% and 29.6%,respectively.CONCLUSIONS:Morbidity and mortality after hepatopancreatoduodenectomy were significant.With R0 resection,the 5-year overall survival and disease-free survival rates were 27.8% and 29.6%,respectively. | Wing Chiu Dai Kenneth SH Chok Tan To Cheung Albert CY Chan See Ching Chan Chung Mau Lo | 2017 | Hepatobiliary & Pancreatic Diseases International2017，16，4： | 2 |
| 15 | Retrohepatic vena cava deroofing in living donor liver transplantation for caudate hepatocellular carcinoma显示文摘The removal of tumor together with the native liver in living donor liver transplantation for hepatocellular carcinoma is challenged by a very close resection margin if the tumor abuts the inferior vena cava.This is in contrast to typical deceased donor liver transplantation where the entire retrohepatic inferior vena cava is included in total hepatectomy.Here we report a case of deroofing the retrohepatic vena cava in living donor liver transplantation for caudate hepatocellular carcinoma.In order to ensure clear resection margins,the anterior portion of the inferior vena cava was included.The right liver graft was inset into a Dacron vascular graft on the back table and the composite graft was then implanted to the recipient inferior vena cava.Using this technique,we observed the no-touch technique in tumor removal,hence minimizing the chance of positive resection margin as well as the chance of shedding of tumor cells during manipulation in operation. | See Ching Chan William W Sharr Tan To Cheung Albert CY Chan Simon HY Tsang Kenneth SH Chok Kin Chung Leung Chung Mau Lo | 2013 | Hepatobiliary & Pancreatic Diseases International2013，12，5： | 2 |
| 16 | Radiological prognosticators of hepatocellular carcinoma treated by hepatectomy显示文摘BACKGROUND: Hepatectomy is the main curative treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but postoperative long- term survival is poor. Preoperative radiological features of HCC displayed by computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging could serve as additional prognostic factors. This study aimed to identify preoperative radiological features of HCC that may be of prognostic significance in hepatectomy. METHODS: Ninety-two patients who underwent hepatectomy for HCC were included in this study. Preoperative radiological features including tumor number, size, location (peripheral, middle, central), portal vein invasion, hepatic vein invasion, and presence of pseudo-capsule were analyzed in relation to survival. RESULTS: With a median follow-up period of 41.7 months, the 1-, 3- and 5-year overall survival rates were 85%, 65% and 58%, respectively. Univariate analysis showed that portal vein invasion and absence of pseudo-capsule were significant prognostic factors for overall survival, while all the examined radiological features were prognostic factors for disease-free survival. Multivariate analysis for overall survival found no significant factor. On multivariate analysis for disease-free survival, patients who had tumors with portal vein invasion had poorer survival with a hazard ratio of 2.26 (95% CI, 1.05-4.91; P=0.038) and patients with single nodular HCC or pseudo-capsulated HCC had better survival with a hazard ratio of 0.50 (95% CI, 0.27-0.94; P=0.032) and 0.38 (95% CI, 0.14-0.99; P=0.048), respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Demonstrable pseudo-capsule of HCC and solitary HCC on imaging and absence of portal vein invasionare features associated with better disease-free survival after hepatectomy. These features may guide treatment planning for HCC. | Kevin KW Chu See Ching Chan Sheung Tat Fan Kenneth SH Chok Tan To Cheung William W Sharr Albert CY Chan Chung Mau Lo | 2012 | Hepatobiliary & Pancreatic Diseases International2012，11，6： | 1 |
