Hemodynamic management during anesthesia in liver transplantation for patients with polycystic liver disease (PLD) can be more challenging because of the bleeding and hemodynamic alterations due to the markedly enlarged liver. We hereby report a case of PLD wherein transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) was employed for optimal hemodynamic monitoring during liver transplantation.
A 61-year-old man was scheduled to undergo liver transplantation for massive PLD. Hemodynamic instability was associated with mechanical displacement of the giant cystic liver. TEE results revealed the collapse of the inferior vena cava due to liver displacement. TEE also detected intrathoracic hemorrhage triggered by detachment from the markedly enlarged liver.
TEE is a valuable monitoring tool for sharing information with surgeons and diagnostic modality for finding the source of bleeding in liver transplantation for PLD and may contribute majorly to the quality of perioperative management.
由于多囊肝(PLD)患者肝脏明显肿大导致出血和血流动力学改变,肝移植麻醉期间的血流动力学管理可能更具挑战性。我们在此报告一例PLD患者,在肝移植期间采用经食管超声心动图(TEE)进行最佳血流动力学监测。
一名61岁男性计划因巨大PLD接受肝移植。血流动力学不稳定与巨大囊性肝脏的机械移位有关。TEE结果显示由于肝脏移位导致下腔静脉塌陷。TEE还检测到因与明显肿大的肝脏分离而引发的胸腔内出血。
TEE是一种有价值的监测工具,可用于与外科医生共享信息,也是用于查找PLD肝移植出血源的诊断方式,可能对围手术期管理质量有重大贡献。
