RESUMO
Intraductal papillary neoplasm of the bile duct (IPNB) is a heterogeneous disease similar to intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm of the pancreas. These lesions have been recognized as one of the three major precancerous lesions in the biliary tract since 2010. In 2018, Japanese and Korean pathologists reached a consensus, classifying IPNBs into type l and type 2 IPNBs. IPNBs are more prevalent in male patients in East Asia and are closely related to diseases such as cholelithiasis and schistosomiasis. From a molecular genetic perspective, IPNBs exhibit early genetic variations, and different molecular pathways may be involved in the tumorigenesis of type 1 and type 2 IPNBs. The histological subtypes of IPNBs include gastric, intestinal, pancreaticobiliary, or oncocytic subtypes, but type 1 IPNBs typically exhibit more regular and well-organized histological features than type 2 IPNBs and are more commonly found in the intrahepatic bile ducts with abundant mucin. Due to the rarity of these lesions and the absence of specific clinical and laboratory features, imaging is crucial for the preoperative diagnosis of IPNB, with local bile duct dilation and growth along the bile ducts being the main imaging features. Surgical resection remains the optimal treatment for IPNBs, but negative bile duct margins and the removal of lymph nodes in the hepatic hilum significantly improve the postoperative survival rates for patients with IPNBs.

PURPOSES: The primary concern regarding laparoscopic hepatectomy in hepatolithiasis patients is surgical safety, which may be high in current practice. METHODS: Hepatolithiasis patients who underwent laparoscopic and laparotomic hepatectomies were retrospectively studies after being matched for age, location of gallstones, liver resection and underlying liver conditions at a ratio of 1:1 (n = 44 in each group). The rates of intraoperative incidents and postoperative complications were examined using validated classification and grading systems. The primary outcome measure was the procedure-related complication/mortality rate. RESULTS: Laparoscopy was converted to open surgery in three patients (6.8 %). The length of the operation for laparoscopic hepatectomy was significantly longer than that for laparotomic hepatectomy (277.5 min [range, 190-410 min] vs. 212.5 min [140-315 min], P < 0.001). The two groups had similar intraoperative blood loss (367.5 mL [150-1200 mL] vs. 392.5 mL [200-1400 mL], P > 0.05) and transfusion frequencies (13.6 vs. 18.2 %, P > 0.05). The laparoscopy group had a higher percentage of patients with at least one intraoperative incident compared with the laparotomy group (22.7 vs. 6.8 %; P < 0.05). Vascular events occurred in nine patients (20.5 %) undergoing laparoscopy and two patients (4.5 %) undergoing laparotomy (OR 5.4 [95 %CI, 1.1-26.7], P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Laparoscopic hepatectomy is associated with a higher risk of intraoperative vascular incidents in hepatolithiasis patients compared wit laparotomy.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the inhibitory effect of humanized anti-VEGFR-2 ScFv-As2O3-stealth nanoparticles conjugate on growth of human hepatocellular carcinoma both in vitro and in vivo, which may be a potential agents with sensitivity and targeting ability for human hepatocellular cancer. METHODS: Humanized anti-VEGFR-2 ScFv-As2O3-stealth nanoparticles conjugate was previously constructed using ribosome display technology and antibody conjugate technology. In this combined in vitro and in vivo study, the inhibitory effects of anti-VEGFR-2 ScFv-As2O3-stealth nanoparticles conjugate on tumor growth, invasion, and metastasis was observed with human liver carcinoma cell line Bel7402 and normal cell L02 by MTT assay, Tanswell assay, Hochest33258 staining, and DNA ladder analysis. The anticancer activity and distribution of anti-VEGFR-2 ScFv-As2O3-stealth nanoparticles was then verified in a mouse model of Bel7402 xenografts. RESULTS: Anti-VEGFR-2 ScFv-As2O3-stealth nanoparticles significantly inhibited the proliferation of Bel7402 in the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay while had almost no effects on L02 cells. And the apoptosis inducing effects were proved by Hochest33258 staining and DNA ladder analysis. Transwell assay found that the drug also inhibited the metastasis ability of tumor cells. Furthermore, anti-VEGFR-2 ScFv-As2O3-stealth nanoparticles significantly delayed the growth of Bel7402 xenografts after administration (92.9%), followed by As2O3-stealth nanoparticles, anti-VEGFR-2 ScFv, and As2O3 (61.4%, 58.8%, 20.5%, P<0.05). The concentration of As2O3 in anti-VEGFR-2 ScFv-As2O3-stealth nanoparticles group was more selectively. CONCLUSIONS: Anti-VEGFR-2 ScFv-As2O3-stealth nanoparticles is a potent and selective anti-hepatocellular carcinoma agent which could inhibit the growth of liver cancer as a targeting agent both in vitro and in vivo and also significantly inhibit angiogenesis.
