Abstract
Background/Purpose
This study clarifies the short- and long-term outcomes of liver resection with hepatic vein (HV) reconstruction for liver tumors and identifies the risk factors for poor outcome.
Methods
We contacted 263 specialized centers in Japan and collected data on this surgical procedure. Patient characteristics, surgical procedures, and outcomes were then analyzed.
Results
A total of 187 patients were enrolled from 36 institutions. Grade C post-hepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) and in-hospital mortality were 3.2% and 1.6%, respectively. The median overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS) were 49.9 and 9.8 months, respectively. Surgical outcomes, OS and RFS did not differ among three types of liver tumors, colorectal liver metastasis (CRLM) (n = 127), hepatocellular carcinoma (n = 27), and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (n = 27). Patients with CRLM and seven or more courses of preoperative chemotherapy had significantly worse OS. Compared with HV reconstruction for securing liver remnant (LR) function (n = 148), reconstruction of the only main HV remaining in the LR (n = 39) had significantly worse short-term outcomes, but did not result in increased mortality, and showed equivalent OS and RFS.
Conclusions
Liver resection with HV reconstruction can be achieved safely and contributes to a relatively good long-term outcome for patients with advanced liver malignancies.
