- HEPATOSPLENIC SCHISTOSOMIASIS-ASSOCIATED CHRONIC PORTAL VEIN THROMBOSIS: RISK FACTOR FOR HEPATOCELLULAR CARCINOMA?(2023) DARCE, George Felipe Bezerra; MAKDISSI, Fabio Ferrari; ANDO, Sabrina de Mello; FONSECA, Gilton Marques; KRUGER, Jaime Arthur Pirola; COELHO, Fabricio Ferreira; ROCHA, Manoel de Souza; HERMAN, PauloBACKGROUND: Hepatosplenic schistosomiasis is an endemic disease prevalent in tropical countries and is associated with a high incidence of portal vein thrombosis. Inflammatory changes caused by both parasitic infection and portal thrombosis can lead to the development of chronic liver disease with potential carcinogenesis. AIMS: To assess the incidence of portal vein thrombosis and hepatocellular carcinoma in patients with schistosomiasis during long-term follow-up. METHODS: A retrospective study was conducted involving patients with schistosomiasis followed up at our institution between 1990 and 2021. RESULTS: A total of 126 patients with schistosomiasis were evaluated in the study. The mean follow-up time was 16 years (range 5-31). Of the total, 73 (57.9%) patients presented portal vein thrombosis during follow-up. Six (8.1%) of them were diagnosed with hepatocellular carcinoma, all with portal vein thrombosis diagnosed more than ten years before. CONCLUSIONS: The incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma in patients with schistosomiasis and chronic portal vein thrombosis highlights the importance of a systematic long-term follow-up in this group of patients.
- Two decades of liver resection with a multidisciplinary approach in a single institution: What has changed? Analysis of 1409 cases(2022) HERMAN, Paulo; FONSECA, Gilton Marques; COELHO, Fabricio Ferreira; KRUGER, Jaime Arthur Pirola; MAKDISSI, Fabio Ferrari; JEISMANN, Vagner Birk; CARRILHO, Flair Jose; D'ALBUQUERQUE, Luiz Augusto Carneiro; NAHAS, Sergio CarlosObjectives: To evaluate results of patients undergoing liver resection in a single center over the past two decades with a particular look at Colorectal Liver Metastasis (CRLM) and Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC). Method: Patients were divided into two eras, from 2000 to 2010 (Era 1) and 2011 to 2020 (Era 2). The most frequent diagnosis was CRLM and HCC, with 738 (52.4%) and 227 (16.1%) cases respectively. An evaluation of all liver resection cases and a subgroup analysis of both CRLM and HCC were performed. Preoperative and per operative variables and long-term outcomes were evaluated. Results: 1409 liver resections were performed. In Era 2 the authors observed higher BMI, more: minimally invasive surgeries, Pringle maneuvers, and minor liver resections; and less transfusion, less ICU necessity, and shorter length of hospital stay. Severe complications were observed in 14.7% of patients, and 90-day mortality was 4.2%. Morbidity and mortality between eras were not different. From 738 CRLM resections, in Era 2 there were significantly more patients submitted to neoadjuvant chemotherapy, bilateral metastases, and smaller sizes with significantly less transfusion, the necessity of ICU, and shorter length of hospital stay. More pedicle clamping, minimally invasive surgeries, and minor resections were also observed. From 227 HCC resections, in Era 2 significantly more minimally invasive surgeries, fewer transfusions, less necessity of ICU, and shorter length of hospital stay were observed. OS was not different between eras for CRLM and HCC. Conclusions: Surgical resection in a multidisciplinary environment remains the cornerstone for the curative treatment of primary and metastatic liver tumors.
- Evolution in the surgical management of colorectal liver metastases: Propensity score matching analysis (PSM) on the impact of specialized multidisciplinary care across two institutional eras(2018) KRUGER, Jaime A. P.; FONSECA, Gilton M.; MAKDISSI, Fabio F.; JEISMANN, Vagner B.; COELHO, Fabricio F.; HERMAN, PauloBackground and Objectives: Liver metastases are indicators of advanced disease in patients with colorectal cancer. Liver resection offers the best possibility of long-term survival. Surgical strategies have evolved in complexity in order to offer resection to a greater number of patients, requiring specialized multidisciplinary care. The current paper focused on analyzing outcomes of patients treated after the development of a dedicated cancer center in our institution. Methods: Patients operated on for CLM from our databank were paired through propensity score matching (PSM), and the initial experience of surgery for CLM was compared with the treatment performed after specialized multidisciplinary management. The demographic, oncological, and surgical features were analyzed between groups. Results: Overall, 355 hepatectomies were performed in 336 patients. Patients operated on during the second era of had greater use of preoperative chemotherapy (P<0.001) as well as exposure to more effective oxaliplatin-based regimens (P<0.001). Surgical management also changed, with minor (P=0.002) and non-anatomic (P=0.006) resections preferred over major operations. We also noted an increased number of minimally invasive resections (P<0.001). Conclusion: Treatment in a multidisciplinary cancer center led to changes in oncological and surgical management. Perioperative chemotherapy was frequently employed, and surgeons adopted a conservative approach to liver parenchyma.

- Multiple colorectal liver metastases resection can offer long-term survival: The concept of a chronic neoplastic disease(2023) DUMARCO, Rodrigo Blanco; FONSECA, Gilton Marques; COELHO, Fabricio Ferreira; JEISMANN, Vagner Birk; MAKDISSI, Fabio Ferrari; KRUGER, Jaime Arthur Pirolla; NAHAS, Sergio Carlos; HERMAN, PauloBackground: Resection for colorectal liver metastases has evolved significantly and, currently, there are no limits to the number of resected nodules. This study aimed to evaluate the outcomes and prognostic factors after liver resection for patients with >= 4 colorectal liver metastases, emphasizing long-term survival. Methods: The study population consisted of 137 patients with >= 4 colorectal liver metastases out of a total of 597 patients with colorectal liver metastases who underwent curative intent liver resection from January 2010 to July 2019 in a single hepatobiliary center. Results: The probability of overall and disease-free survival at 1, 3, and 5 years was 90.8%, 64.5%, 40.6%, and 37.7%, 19.3%, 18.1%, respectively. In a multivariate analysis for overall survival, the size of the largest metastatic nodule was the only unfavorable factor (P =.001). For disease-free survival, complete pathological response was a favorable factor (P =.04), and the following were negative factors: number of nodules >= 7 (P =.034), radiofrequency ablation during surgery (P =.04), positive primary tumor lymph nodes (P =.034), R1 resection (P =.011), and preoperative carcinoembryonic antigen >20 ng/mL (P =.015). After the first and second years of follow-up, 59 patients (45.3%) and 45 patients (34.6%), respectively, were not receiving chemotherapy. After 5 years of follow-up, 21 (16.1%) multimetastatic patients were chemotherapy-free. Conclusion: A significant number of patients with multiple colorectal liver metastases will present long-term survival and should not be denied surgery. The long-term survival rates, even in the presence of recurrence, characterize a chronic neoplastic disease.
- Are Hybrid Liver Resections Truly Minimally Invasive? A Propensity Score Matching Analysis(2017) COELHO, Fabricio Ferreira; KRUGER, Jaime Arthur Pirola; JEISMANN, Vagner Birk; FONSECA, Gilton Marques; MAKDISSI, Fabio Ferrari; FERREIRA, Leandro Augusto; D'ALBUQUERQUE, Luiz Augusto Carneiro; CECCONELLO, Ivan; HERMAN, PauloBackground: Hybrid liver resection is considered a modality of minimally invasive surgery; however, there are doubts regarding loss of benefits of laparoscopy due to the use of an auxiliary incision. We compared perioperative results of patients undergoing hybridxopen and hybridxpure laparoscopic resections. Methods: Consecutive patients undergoing liver resection between June 2008 and January 2016 were studied. Study groups were compared after propensity score matching (PSM). Results: Six hundred forty-four resections were included in the comparative analysis: 470 open, 120 pure laparoscopic, and 54 hybrids. After PSM, 54 patients were included in each group. Hybridxopen: hybrid technique had shorter operative time (319.5108.6x376.2 +/- 155.8 minutes, P=.033), shorter hospital stay (6.0 +/- 2.7x8.1 +/- 5.6 days, P=.001), and lower morbidity (18.5%x40.7%, P=.003). Hybridxpure laparoscopic: hybrid group had lower conversion rate (0%x13%, P=.013). There was no difference regarding estimated blood loss, transfusion rate, hospital stay, complications, or mortality. Conclusions: Hybrid resection has better perioperative results than the open approach and is similar to pure laparoscopy. The hybrid technique should be considered a minimally invasive approach.
conferenceObject HEPATIC ANGIOMYOLIPOMAS: CLINICAL AND IMAGING FINDINGS(2023) SILVEIRA, Sergio; TUSTUMI, Francisco; DARCE, George F.; JEISMANN, Vagner B.; FONSECA, Gilton M.; KRUGER, Jaime Arthur Pirola; MAKDISSI, Fabio Ferrari; OLIVEIRA, Irai Santana de; ROCHA, Manoel de Souza; COELHO, Fabricio F.; HERMAN, Paulo- Management of variceal hemorrhage: current concepts(2014) COELHO, Fabricio Ferreira; PERINI, Marcos Vinícius; KRUGER, Jaime Arthur Pirola; FONSECA, Gilton Marques; ARAÚJO, Raphael Leonardo Cunha de; MAKDISSI, Fábio Ferrari; LUPINACCI, Renato Micelli; HERMAN, PauloINTRODUCTION: The treatment of portal hypertension is complex and the the best strategy depends on the underlying disease (cirrhosis vs. schistosomiasis), patient's clinical condition and time on it is performed (during an acute episode of variceal bleeding or electively, as pre-primary, primary or secondary prophylaxis). With the advent of new pharmacological options and technical development of endoscopy and interventional radiology treatment of portal hypertension has changed in recent decades. AIM: To review the strategies employed in elective and emergency treatment of variceal bleeding in cirrhotic and schistosomotic patients. METHODS: Survey of publications in PubMed, Embase, Lilacs, SciELO and Cochrane databases through June 2013, using the headings: portal hypertension, esophageal and gastric varices, variceal bleeding, liver cirrhosis, schistosomiasis mansoni, surgical treatment, pharmacological treatment, secondary prophylaxis, primary prophylaxis, pre-primary prophylaxis. CONCLUSION: Pre-primary prophylaxis doesn't have specific treatment strategies; the best recommendation is treatment of the underlying disease. Primary prophylaxis should be performed in cirrhotic patients with beta-blockers or endoscopic variceal ligation. There is controversy regarding the effectiveness of primary prophylaxis in patients with schistosomiasis; when indicated, it is done with beta-blockers or endoscopic therapy in high-risk varices. Treatment of acute variceal bleeding is systematized in the literature, combination of vasoconstrictor drugs and endoscopic therapy, provided significant decline in mortality over the last decades. TIPS and surgical treatment are options as rescue therapy. Secondary prophylaxis plays a fundamental role in the reduction of recurrent bleeding, the best option in cirrhotic patients is the combination of pharmacological therapy with beta-blockers and endoscopic band ligation. TIPS or surgical treatment, are options for controlling rebleeding on failure of secondary prophylaxis. Despite the increasing evidence of the effectiveness of pharmacological and endoscopic treatment in schistosomotic patients, surgical therapy still plays an important role in secondary prophylaxis.
