ABSTRACT

Background: Orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) remains an excellent treatment approach for HCC in well-selected candidates. Milan Criteria (MC) (a single tumor up to 5cm or up to 3 tumors none larger than 3.0 cm) is the most widely used criteria for selection of those patients. Our aim is to study the current situation of the MC focusing on patient survival and tumor recurrence free rate from 1 to 5-yrs after OLT over the past 10 years. Material and Methods: We have reviewed 59 papers published between2000-2009; from Asia (42.3%), Europe (33.9%) and North America (20.4%). 5.525 patients have undergone OLT within MC. The overall patient survival rate and tumor recurrence free rate from 1 to 5-yrs were analyzed. Results: Overall patient survival rates were 1 year (87.26%), 2 years (81.95%), 3 years (77.47%), 4 years (75.24%) and 5 years (72.41%). We have found tumor recurrence free rate of 80.29% and 71.36% at 1 and 5-yrs, respectively. Conclusion: MC has come to simplify the indication for LT in patients with HCC. The best patient survival rate at 1 and 5 years were in North America (88%) and Asia (76,6%), respectively. On the other hand, Europe had the best tumor recurrence free rate at 5 years (91.8%).


Introdução: O transplante de fígado (TF) continua sendo o melhor tratamento para pacientes, bem selecionados, portadores de carcinoma hepatocelular. Os critérios de Milão (CM) ( tumor único até 5 cm e 3 tumores não maiores que 3 cms) são os critérios mais usados para estes pacientes. Nosso objetivo é avaliar a situação atual dos CM principalmente a sobrevida do paciente e a taxa livre de recorrência tumoral após 1 a 5 anos do TF, nos últimos 10 anos. Material e Métodos: Revisamos 59 trabalhos entre200-2009; da Asia (42,3%), Europa (33,9%) e da América do Norte (20,4%). 5.525 pacientes submeteram-se ao TF com os CM. A sobrevida total dos pacientes e a taxa livre de recorrência tumoral foram analisados. Resultados: A taxa de sobrevida total dos pacientes foi em 1 ano de (87,26%), 2 anos (81,95%), 3 anos (77,47%), 4 anos (75,24%) e 5 anos (72,41%). A taxa livre de recorrência tumoral foi de 80,29% e 71,36% em 1 e 5 anos, respectivamente. Conclusão: A melhor taxa de sobrevida dos pacientes foi na América do Norte (88%) e na Asia (76,6%), respectivamente. Por outro lado, a Europa teve a melhor taxa livre de recorrência de doença em 5 anos (91,8%).
