Associating microwave ablation and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy for the treatment of huge hepatocellular carcinoma with cirrhosis

چکیده
Associating liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy (ALPPS) could induce extensive and rapid future liver remnant hypertrophy. However, the morbidity for ALPPS is very high. This paper reports a modified ALPPS (associating microwave ablation and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy, AMAPS), which was successfully applied in the treatment of huge hepatocellular carcinoma with cirrhosis, and the procedure of operation was greatly simplified. Hence, AMAPS is feasible and safe in selected patients with primary hepatocellular carcinoma and cirrhosis.

Associating liver partition and portal vein ligation for bleeding hepatocellular carcinoma in HBV cirrhosis: a safety strategy.
The incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) spontaneous tumor rupture varies between 3% and 26%. For resectable HCC ruptures, emergency hepatectomy or staged hepatectomy after transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) are life-saving procedures, and efficient therapeutic methods. We report a multimodal therapy including TAE, associating liver partition and portal vein ligation (ALPPS) and i...
متن کاملImpact of split completeness on future liver remnant hypertrophy in associating liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy (ALPPS) in hepatocellular carcinoma: Complete-ALPPS versus partial-ALPPS.
BACKGROUND Recent evidence suggested that associating liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy with a partial split could effectively induce the same degree of future liver remnant hypertrophy as a complete split in non-cirrhotic and non-cholestatic livers with better postoperative safety profiles. Our aim was to evaluate if the same phenomenon could be applied to hepatit...

To the Editor S ince its introduction by Schnitzbauer et al 1 in 2012, associating liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy (ALPPS) became a promising strategy for patients with insufficient future liver remnant (FLR). Despite the efficacy of ALPPS in triggering rapid hypertrophy of FLR, high incidence of postoperative morbidity and mortality poses a major drawback, espec...
متن کاملTotally laparoscopic radiofrequency-assisted liver partition with portal vein ligation for hepatocellular carcinoma in cirrhotic liver
RATIONALE Adequate future liver remnant (FLR) volume is often a concern for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Associating liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy (ALPPS) procedure can rapidly lead to impressive growth of FLR. We describe the technique of an entirely laparoscopic radiofrequency-assisted liver partition with portal vein ligation for staged hepa...
متن کاملUpdate in management of hepatocellular carcinoma in Eastern population.
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the commonest malignant tumours in the East. Although the management of HCC in the West is mainly based on the Barcelona Clinic for Liver Cancer staging, it is considered too conservative by Asian countries where the number of HCC patients is huge. Scientific and clinical advances were made in aspects of diagnosis, staging, and treatment of HCC. HCC is w...
