BACKGROUND/AIMS: Liver failure after right hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in patients with an indocyanine green retention rate at 15 min (ICGR(15)) of 10% or higher remains a controversial issue.
Between 1995 and 2004, 98 patients with an ICGR(15) of 10% or higher were scheduled to undergo right hepatectomy or tri-sectionectomy for HCC. The hepatic resection volume (HR) excluding the tumor was measured using computed tomography. The allowable HR (AHR) was determined in each patient with a logarithmic graph based on the ICGR(15) and the %HR. Liver failure and mortality were evaluated between 54 patients with HR <or= AHR (low-risk group) and 44 patients with HR > AHR (high-risk group).
The number of patients with liver failure was significantly lower in the low-risk group (2%) than in the high-risk group (23%, p = 0.0021). No mortality was observed in the low-risk group, while mortality was seen in the high-risk group (11%, p = 0.016). Multivariate analysis showed that the high-risk group was identified as a significant predictor of liver failure (p = 0.011).
In patients with an ICGR(15) of 10% or higher, determination of AHR is useful to predict liver failure prior to right hepatectomy or tri-sectionectomy.
背景/目的:对于吲哚菁绿15分钟潴留率(ICGR(15))为10%或更高的肝细胞癌(HCC)患者,右肝切除术后发生肝衰竭仍是一个有争议的问题。
1995年至2004年期间,98例ICGR(15)为10%或更高的患者计划接受HCC的右肝切除术或三段切除术。使用计算机断层扫描测量不包括肿瘤的肝切除体积(HR)。根据ICGR(15)和HR百分比,通过对数图确定每位患者的允许肝切除体积(AHR)。对54例HR≤AHR的患者(低风险组)和44例HR>AHR的患者(高风险组)的肝衰竭和死亡率进行评估。
低风险组肝衰竭患者数量(2%)显著低于高风险组(23%,p = 0.0021)。低风险组未观察到死亡,而高风险组有死亡病例(11%,p = 0.016)。多因素分析显示,高风险组被确定为肝衰竭的显著预测因素(p = 0.011)。
对于ICGR(15)为10%或更高的患者,确定AHR有助于在右肝切除术或三段切除术之前预测肝衰竭。
