RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Laparoscopic liver resection for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in Child-Pugh A cirrhosis has been demonstrated as beneficial. However, the role of laparoscopy in Child-Pugh B cirrhosis is undetermined. The aim of this retrospective cohort study was to compare open and laparoscopic resection for HCC with Child-Pugh B cirrhosis. METHODS: Data on liver resections were gathered from 17 centres. A 1 : 1 propensity score matching was performed according to 17 predefined variables. RESULTS: Of 382 available liver resections, 100 laparoscopic and 100 open resections were matched and analysed. The 90-day postoperative mortality rate was similar in open and laparoscopic groups (4.0 versus 2.0 per cent respectively; P = 0.687). Laparoscopy was associated with lower blood loss (median 110 ml versus 400 ml in the open group; P = 0.004), less morbidity (38.0 versus 51.0 per cent respectively; P = 0.041) and fewer major complications (7.0 versus 21.0 per cent; P = 0.010), and ascites was lower on postoperative days 1, 3 and 5. For laparoscopic resections, patients with portal hypertension developed more complications than those without (26 versus 12 per cent respectively; P = 0.002), and patients with a Child-Pugh B9 score had higher morbidity rates than those with B8 and B7 (7 of 8, 10 of 16 and 21 of 76 respectively; P < 0.001). Median hospital stay was 7.5 (range 2-243) days for laparoscopic liver resection and 18 (3-104) days for the open approach (P = 0.058). The 5-year overall survival rate was 47 per cent for open and 65 per cent for laparoscopic resection (P = 0.142). The 5-year disease-free survival rate was 32 and 37 per cent respectively (P = 0.742). CONCLUSION: Patients without preoperative portal hypertension and Child-Pugh B7 cirrhosis may benefit most from laparoscopic liver surgery.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Organ scarcity continues to be the main problem limiting the number of liver transplants performed. Outcomes of patients waitlisted for an organ in an Asian country with low organ donation rate have not been well evaluated. Our current policy of allocating 15 exception points to patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) to render them competitive for a transplant also requires review. METHODS: The waiting list registry and the organ transplant registry of a single institution in Asia were reviewed from December 2005 to June 2016 for all patients who underwent liver transplantation. Patient characteristics and outcomes of waitlist dropouts were evaluated. Statistical analyses were performed using SPSS version 20.0. RESULTS: One hundred seventy-three patients were waitlisted for a deceased donor liver-only transplant. The most common etiology of liver disease was hepatitis B, followed by cholestatic diseases. Approximately half of the patients had HCC (45.6%). Priority listing for transplant comprised 15.6% of cases. Median Model for End-Stage Liver Disease (MELD) at listing was 15, and median waiting time to transplant was 17 weeks (interquartile range = 6.5-43.5). Overall, 89 (51.4%) patients underwent liver transplantation and 68 (39.3%) dropped out. For patients with HCC, the most common cause of dropout was progression beyond University of California San Francisco transplant criteria (62.5%). The cumulative incidence of dropout at 3 months among patients with HCC who received exception MELD scores was 11%. This was higher than those listed with physiologic MELD of 14-16 points (7%) but lower than those with 17-19 points (16%). CONCLUSIONS: Hepatitis B-related liver disease and HCC comprise the majority of patients listed for liver transplant. Dropout rates are high and this is due to the lack of donor organs. The current policy of allocating 15 exception MELD points to patients with HCC within transplant criteria may underestimate the dropout risk of patients with HCC in our population.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Laparoscopic resection of gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) has been shown by several retrospective studies to be technically feasible and associated with favorable outcomes when compared to the open approach. This study aims to mitigate potential selection bias by performing a case control study of laparoscopic (LWR) versus open wedge resection (OWR) matched by resection type, location and tumor size. METHODS: We retrospectively identified 50 consecutive patients who underwent LWR for a suspected gastric GIST from a prospective database and matched this cohort with 50 patients who underwent OWR. RESULTS: There was no statistical difference between the key baseline clinicopathological features of patients' who underwent LWR versus OWR. Patients who underwent LWR had longer operating times [150 (range, 65-270) minutes vs 92.5 (25-200) minutes, P < .001] but decreased median blood loss [0 (0-300) ml vs 0 (0-1200) ml, P = .015], decreased frequency of intraoperative or postoperative blood transfusion [1 (2%) vs 8 (16%), P = .031], decreased median time to liquid diet [2 (0-5) vs 3 (1-7) days, P < .001], decreased median time to solid diet [3 (1-6) vs 5 (2-11) days, P < .001] and decreased postoperative stay [4 (2-10) vs 4.5 (3-17), P < .001] compared to OWR. There was no difference in oncological outcomes such as frequency of close margins (≤ 1 mm) and recurrence-free survival. CONCLUSION: This matched case-control study provides supporting evidence that LWR results in superior perioperative outcomes compared to OWR without compromising on oncological outcomes.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: The purpose of the present study was to determine whether intrahepatic injection of (131)I-lipiodol (Lipiodol) is effective against recurrence of surgically resected hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). METHODS: From June 2001 through March 2007, this nationwide multi-center prospective randomized controlled trial enrolled 103 patients 4-6 weeks after curative resection of HCC with complete recovery (52: Lipiodol, 51: Control). Follow-up was every 3 months for 1 year, then every 6 months. Primary and secondary endpoints were recurrence-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS), respectively, both of which were evaluated by the Kaplan-Meier technique and summarized by the hazard ratio (HR). The design was based on information obtained from a similar trial that had been conducted in Hong Kong. RESULTS: The Lipiodol group showed a small, and nonsignificant, improvement over control in RFS (HR = 0.75; 95 % confidence interval [95 % CI] 0.46-1.23; p = 0.25) and OS (HR = 0.88; 95 % CI 0.51-1.51; p = 0.64). Only two serious adverse events were reported, both with hypothyroidism caused by (131)I-lipiodol and hepatic artery dissection during angiography. CONCLUSIONS: The randomized trial provides insufficient evidence to recommend the routine use of (131)I-lipiodol in these patients.

RESUMEN

The aim of this study was to assess the safety of bilateral native ureteral ligation (BNUL) without nephrectomy in the management of native proteinuria in kidney transplant (KTx) recipients. We retrospectively studied 17 patients who underwent BNUL between 2002 and 2010 with a median preoperative 24 h protein concentration of 2140 (range 1020-25 000) mg/L. Fifteen of the 17 patients had focal segmental glomerulosclerosis as their primary renal disease and ligation was employed to facilitate the diagnosis of early recurrence. The BNUL was performed simultaneously with KTx in 14 patients. Surgical techniques were: open (n = 5), pure laparoscopic (n = 1) and a hybrid of hand-assisted laparoscopic surgical/open approach (n = 12) used at the time of transplantation via the transplant incision. At a median follow-up of 46 months (range 1-59), no patient had a complication related to BNUL and none required interventions associated with their native kidneys. BNUL without nephrectomy seems to be a safe technique to manage native proteinuria in renal transplant candidates.

RESUMEN

Natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) is the latest minimally invasive technique in the surgical armamentarium. Indeed it is stoking controversy already among both practitioners and patients, challenging established surgical, ethical and even moral principles. One organ which has been at the forefront of minimally invasive intervention is the pancreas. This review looks at the basis for evolving NOTES capabilities in the diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic diseases, with particular reference to neoplastic lesions and their complications. A summary of recent advancements in gastro-intestinal endoscopy and laparoscopic surgery as applied to the pancreas is presented. The possible role and feasibility of NOTES are outlined against this background.

RESUMEN

AIM: The aim of this study is to review the radiologic, PET scan and pathologic response and the outcome of patients with advanced GIST treated with neoadjuvant IM followed by surgical resection. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We report a case and review 36 patients reported in MEDLINE with advanced GIST treated with neoadjuvant IM followed by surgical resection. RESULTS: Thirty-seven patients with a median age of 56 years (range, 32-76 years) at presentation were treated with neoadjuvant IM. Radiologic response accurately predicted pathological response in 31/36 patients, whereas PET scan was accurate in predicting treatment response in only 6/23 patients. CONCLUSION: This study demonstrates that the pathologic response of GIST to IM is usually incomplete and does not correlate with the complete response seen on PET scan. This finding suggests that surgical resection will continue to play a vital role in the treatment of patients with advanced disease responding to IM treatment.

RESUMEN

AIM: Pancreatic endocrine neoplasms (PENs) may occasionally manifest as cystic lesions of the pancreas. The aim of this study is to report our experience with cystic PENs and to compare their clinico-pathological features with their solid counterparts. MATERIALS AND METHODS: From 1990 to 2004, 38 patients with PENs were reviewed. Six of these tumours appeared on radiological imaging as a cystic lesion of the pancreas. RESULTS: Of the 38 patients with a PEN, 21 of the patients were female and with a median age of 54.5 (range, 33-83) years. Sixteen patients had functional endocrine tumours of which insulinoma was the most common. The six patients with cystic PEN had a median age of 55.5 (range, 41-70) years and half were female. Cystic PENs were significantly larger [48 (range, 25-170) mm vs 19 (range, 3-120) mm, P = 0.013] and were less likely to be benign (0 vs 50%, P = 0.017) compared to their solid counterparts. There was no difference between cystic and solid PENs in terms of age, sex, presence of symptoms, proportion of functioning tumours and location of tumours within the pancreas. CONCLUSION: Cystic PENs share many clinico-pathological features with solid PENs. These differ only in the cystic appearance and tend to be of a larger size. Hence, these findings suggest that cystic and solid PENs are unlikely to be distinct pathological entities but are likely to be morphological variants of the same entity.

RESUMEN

AIM: To compare the clinico-pathological features of intraductal papillary mucinous cystic tumours (IPMT) and mucinous cystic tumours (MCT) of the pancreas. METHODS: Eighteen patients with IPMT and 18 with MCT who underwent surgical resection between 1990 and 2004 were retrospectively reviewed. Their clinico-pathological features were compared using univariate analysis. Statistical analyses of potential predictive factors of malignancy for each of these two groups were also conducted. RESULTS: Patients with IPMT were found to be older (64+/-10 vs 43+/-18 years, p<0.001) and were predominantly male (male:female ratio, 5:4 vs 1:17, p=0.003) as compared to patients with MCT. MCTs were found in the body-tail region (100%) whereas IPMTs were more evenly distributed (50% in the head) (p=0.001). Pathologically, IPMT was distinct from MCT in terms of size (3.8+/-3.2 vs 9.1+/-4.4 cm, p=0.001), association with secondary pancreatitis (50 vs 0%, p=0.011), communication with the pancreatic duct (94 vs 0%, p<0.001), presence of a dilated main pancreatic duct (61 vs 0%, p<0.001) and the presence of ovarian-type stroma (0 vs 44%, p=0.003). CONCLUSION: IPMT and MCT are distinct clinico-pathological entities. This distinction is important as management and outcome of these entities may differ.
