ABSTRACT
Ex-vivo liver resection is developed based on liver transplantation and technique of cold preservation of organs.It overcomes the shortcomings of time limit of warm ischemia and high technique demand of hepatectomy of tumors located at critical sites.A 58-year-old woman with hepatocellular carcinoma located close to the middle hepatic vein combined with invasion of right hepatic vein was admitted to Southwest Hospital.Because of the critical tumor site,conventional liver resection Wag assessed as impossible.Ex-vivo liver resection was performed,and a vessel patch from an organ wag harvested to repair the defect of the right hepatic vein,and then the liver remnant was subsequently autotransplanted.After operation,the patient recovered smoothly without venous outflow complication.Bile leakage wag observed on postoperative day 23,and the maximnm volume of intraperitoneal drainage wag 200 ml per 24 hours.Endoscopic nasobiliary drainage Was performed and the volume of intraperitoneal drainage gradually decreased to none.Liver function of the patient was back to normal and with no tumor recurrence at the end of 6 months of follow up.Ex-vivoliver resection is beneficial to patients with centrally located hepatocellular carcinoma with the involvement of hepatic vein and inferior vena cava.
