RESUMEN

PURPOSE: This study was designed to elucidate the various new classifications and the use of LDLT and bridging therapy for HCC in this context beyond the Milan criteria (MC). METHODS: The clinical data of patients with HCC outside the MC who underwent LT at Jena University between January 2007 and August 2023 were retrospectively analysed. Eligible patients were classified according to various classification systems. Clinicopathological features, overall and disease-free survival rates were compared between LT and LDLT within the context of bridging therapy. THE RESULTS: Among the 245 patients analysed, 120 patients did not meet the MC, and 125 patients met the MC. Moreover, there were comparable overall survival rates between patients outside the MC for LT versus LDLT (OS 44.3 months vs. 28.3 months; 5-year survival, 56.4% vs. 40%; p = 0.84). G3 tumour differentiation, the presence of angioinvasion and lack of bridging were statistically significant risk factors for tumour recurrence according to univariate and multivariate analyses (HR 6.34; p = 0.0002; HR 8.21; p < 0.0001; HR 7.50; p = 0.0001). Bridging therapy before transplantation provided a significant survival advantage regardless of the transplant procedure (OS: p = 0.008; DFS: p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Patients with HCC outside the MC who underwent LT or LDLT had worse outcomes compared to those of patients who met the MC but still had a survival advantage compared to patients without transplantation. Nevertheless, such patients remain disadvantaged on the waiting list, which is why LDLT represents a safe alternative to LT and should be considered in bridged HCC patients because of differences in tumour differentiation, size and tumour marker dynamics.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: For patients with primary and secondary liver tumors that are functionally or technically nonresectable, liver transplantation remains the sole curative treatment option. Over the years the benefits of transplantation have also been validated for conditions other than hepatocellular carcinoma. Currently, amidst a period of organ shortage the broadening of transplantation indications is a topic of ongoing debate. Although recent studies have confirmed the long-term success of transplantation within multimodal treatment regimens, this approach has yet to become the standard treatment for many conditions. OBJECTIVE: This article explores the potential of liver transplantation in individualized multimodal oncological treatment strategies. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Liver transplantation has become an integral component of the treatment regimen for hepatocellular carcinoma. In Germany there is a prioritized organ allocation facilitated by the granting of a standard exception for cases with a smaller tumor burden. Over the years numerous studies have demonstrated comparable long-term results using different listing criteria. Both intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma and perihilar cholangiocarcinoma can be curatively treated with transplantation in Germany, although this is typically within the context of clinical studies. The neoadjuvant therapy and patient selection, based on tumor burden and the response to preliminary treatment, play a crucial role in influencing long-term survival and recurrence rates. The success of transplantation for liver metastases from neuroendocrine malignancies or colorectal carcinomas, which cannot be removed by partial resection, also significantly hinges on the patient selection. The role of living donor liver transplantation is becoming increasingly more pivotal in this context.

RESUMEN

Background: Extrahepatic body fat could be a relevant factor affecting liver regeneration after partial hepatectomy. The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential role of body fatty tissue in liver regeneration capacity after liver resection in a cohort of living donors. Methods: We observed liver regeneration in 120 patients: 70 living donors who underwent right hepatectomy and 50 recipients who got a right graft transplantation. Liver volumetry and body fat analysis were performed based on the computed tomography images with volumetry software. The gain of liver volume was calculated between three points in time considering the absolute and percentage values: before surgery and early (median 10 days, range 4-21 days) and late (median 27 weeks, range 18-40 weeks) after surgery. Pearson's correlation was used to examine the potential correlation between adipose tissue and liver regeneration. Results: Pearson's correlation showed a significant correlation between the subcutaneous fat mass index (sFMI) and early (r=0.173, P=0.030), as well late (r=0.395, P=0.0004) percental liver volume gain in the whole collective. Under stratification in donor's and recipient's collectives, the effect of extrahepatic adipose tissue appears in multiple regression only in the donor's collective: early (ß =0.219, T =2.137, P=0.036) and late (ß =0.390, T =2.552, P=0.015) percental volume gain. Conclusions: Subcutaneous adipose tissue is a positive predictive factor to estimate the goodness of liver regeneration after partial hepatectomy in normosthenic donors.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: The survival rate of patients with irresectable perihilar cholangiocarcinoma is remarkably poor. An essential part of palliation is treatment of obstructive cholestasis caused by the tumor. Currently, this is mainly performed endoscopically by stent or via PTBD, requiring frequent changes of the stents and limiting health-related quality of life due to the multiple hospital stays needed. The aim of this study was to evaluate surgical palliation via extrahepatic bile duct resection as an option for palliative treatment. METHODS: Between 2005 and 2016, we treated 120 pCCC patients with primary palliative care. Three treatment strategies were retrospectively considered: extrahepatic bile duct resection (EBR), exploratory laparotomy (EL), and primary palliative (PP) therapy. RESULTS: The EBR group required significantly less stenting postoperatively, and the overall morbidity was 29.4% (EBR). After the surgical procedure, fewer subsequent endoscopic treatments for stenting or PTBD were necessary in the EBR group over time. The 30-day mortality was 5.9% (EBR) and 3.4% (EL). The median overall survival averaged 570 (EBR), 392 (EL), and 247 (PP) days. CONCLUSIONS: In selected pCCC patients, palliative extrahepatic bile duct resection is a feasible option for treatment of obstructive cholestasis and should be reconsidered as a therapy option for these patients even in a palliative setting.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Cholestasis should be relieved by biliary drainage prior to major liver resection. This condition is often associated with bacterial colonization of the otherwise sterile biliary system. Cholangitis reduces the regenerative capacity of the remaining liver. Therefore, targeted antibiotic therapy is a key feature in perioperative treatment in patients with perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (pCCC). METHODS: Between December 1999 and December 2017, 251 pCCC patients were treated in our center. In total, 115 patients underwent a microbiological analysis. In addition to the characterization of the specific microorganisms and antibiotic resistance, we analyzed subgroups according to preoperative intervention. RESULTS: Enterococci (87/254, 34%) and Enterobacteria (65/254, 26%) were the most frequently detected genera. In 43% (50/115) of patients, Enterococcus faecalis was found in the bile duct sample. Enterococcus faecium (29/115) and Escherichia coli (29/115) were detected in 25% of patients. In patients with percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (3/8, 38%) or stents (24/79, 30%), Enterococcus faecium was diagnosed most frequently (P < 0.05). Enterococcus faecium and Klebsiella oxytoca were significantly more frequently noted in the time period after 2012 (P < 0.05). With regard to fungal colonization, the focus was on various Candida strains, but these strains generally lacked resistance. CONCLUSIONS: pCCC patients exhibit specific bacterial colonization features depending on the type of preoperative biliary intervention. Specifically, targeted antibiosis should be applied in this patient cohort to minimize the risk of biliary complications after major liver resection. In our cohort, the combination of meropenem and vancomycin represents an effective perioperative medical approach.

RESUMEN

Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma is in most transplant regions a contraindication for liver transplantation, even ruling out an active waiting list registration. However, recent studies showed that well-selected patients after a neo-adjuvant treatment benefit from liver transplantation with good long-term outcomes. The role of living donor liver transplantation is unclear for this indication. The current study focuses on LDLT for intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.
