Abstract
Background: An international registry on liver venous deprivation (LVD, simultaneous portal and hepatic vein embolization) was created in 2020. This study assessed the outcomes after LVD in patients included in the registry.
Methods: Eight international centers participated. Future liver remnant (FLR) and standardized FLR ratios were defined as FLR/total functional liver volume and FLR/total estimated liver volume.
Results: 216 patients were included (80 women, median age 63). Main surgical indication was colorectal metastases (n=124). Median and standardized FLR ratios before LVD were 33% (IQR27-47) and 32% (IQR24-39). In one patient, right hepatic vein embolization failed. Complications after LVD occurred in 14 patients (6.5%). After LVD, median and standardized FLR ratios significantly increased to 46% (IQR38-60, p<0.001) and 44% (IQR35-51, p<0.001), corresponding to a median kinetic growth rate of 3.4%/week (IQR1.5-6.0). Hepatectomy was performed in 160 patients (72 extended hepatectomies), while 56 dropped out (4% insufficient hypertrophy, 13% tumor progression). Seventy-seven patients had postoperative complications (48%; 5 postoperative liver failures, 3%). Median Comprehensive Complication Index was 20.9 (IQR0-30.8).
Conclusion: Preliminary data of this international registry showed that LVD had a high technical success rate with few post-procedural complications and significant kinetic growth. Major hepatectomy after LVD appeared to be safe.
期刊介绍:
HPB is an international forum for clinical, scientific and educational communication.
Twelve issues a year bring the reader leading articles, expert reviews, original articles, images, editorials, and reader correspondence encompassing all aspects of benign and malignant hepatobiliary disease and its management. HPB features relevant aspects of clinical and translational research and practice.
Specific areas of interest include HPB diseases encountered globally by clinical practitioners in this specialist field of gastrointestinal surgery. The journal addresses the challenges faced in the management of cancer involving the liver, biliary system and pancreas. While surgical oncology represents a large part of HPB practice, submission of manuscripts relating to liver and pancreas transplantation, the treatment of benign conditions such as acute and chronic pancreatitis, and those relating to hepatobiliary infection and inflammation are also welcomed. There will be a focus on developing a multidisciplinary approach to diagnosis and treatment with endoscopic and laparoscopic approaches, radiological interventions and surgical techniques being strongly represented. HPB welcomes submission of manuscripts in all these areas and in scientific focused research that has clear clinical relevance to HPB surgical practice.
HPB aims to help its readers - surgeons, physicians, radiologists and basic scientists - to develop their knowledge and practice. HPB will be of interest to specialists involved in the management of hepatobiliary and pancreatic disease however will also inform those working in related fields.
