- Repeat hepatectomy for recurrent colorectal liver metastases: A comparative analysis of short- and long-term results(2022) COSTA, Paulo Figueiredo; COELHO, Fabricio Ferreira; JEISMANN, Vagner Birk; KRUGER, Jaime Arthur Pirola; FONSECA, Gilton Marques; CECCONELLO, Ivan; HERMAN, PauloBackground: Liver recurrence after resection of colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) is frequent. Repeat hepatectomy has been shown to have satisfactory perioperative results. However, the long-term outcomes and the benefits for patients with early recurrence have not been clarified. The aim of this study was to compare the short-and long-term outcomes of patients undergoing single hepatectomy and repeat hepatectomy for CRLM. Additionally, the oncological outcomes of patients with early (& LE; 6 months) and late recurrence who underwent repeat hepatectomy were compared. Methods: Consecutive adult patients undergoing hepatectomy for CRLM between June 20 0 0 and February 2020 were included and divided into two groups: single hepatectomy and repeat hepatectomy. Results: A total of 709 patients were included: 649 in the single hepatectomy group and 60 in the repeat hepatectomy group. Patients in the repeat hepatectomy group underwent more cycles of preoperative chemotherapy [4 (3-6) vs. 3 (2-4), P = 0.003]. Patients in the single hepatectomy group more frequently underwent major hepatectomies (34.5% vs. 16.7%, P = 0.004) and had a greater number of lesions resected (2.9 & PLUSMN; 3.6 vs. 1.9 & PLUSMN; 1.8, P = 0.011). There was no increase in operative time, estimated blood loss, length of hospital stay, complications, or mortality in the repeat hepatectomy group. There were no differences in overall survival ( P = 0.626) and disease-free survival ( P = 0.579) between the two groups. Similarly, for patients underwent repeat hepatectomy, no difference was observed between the early and late recurrence groups in terms of overall survival ( P = 0.771) or disease-free survival ( P = 0.350). Conclusions: Repeat hepatectomy is feasible and safe, with similar short-and long-term outcomes when compared to single hepatectomy. Surgical treatment of early liver recurrence offers similar oncological outcomes to those obtained for late recurrence.
- Liver resection for the treatment of post-cholecystectomy biliary stricture with vascular injury(2015) PERINI, Marcos V.; HERMAN, Paulo; MONTAGNINI, Andre L.; JUKEMURA, Jose; COELHO, Fabricio F.; KRUGER, Jaime A.; BACCHELLA, Telesforo; CECCONELLO, IvanAIM: To report experience with liver resection in a select group of patients with postoperative biliary stricture associated with vascular injury. METHODS: From a prospective database of patients treated for benign biliary strictures at our hospital, cases that underwent liver resections were reviewed. All cases were referred after one or more attempts to repair bile duct injuries following cholecystectomy (open or laparoscopic). Liver resection was indicated in patients with Strasberg E3/E4 (hilar stricture) bile duct lesions associated with vascular damage (arterial and/or portal), ipsilateral liver atrophy/abscess, recurrent attacks of cholangitis, and failure of previous hepaticojejunostomy. RESULTS: Of 148 patients treated for benign biliary strictures, nine (6.1%) underwent liver resection; eight women and one man with a mean age of 38.6 years. Six patients had previously been submitted to open cholecystectomy and three to laparoscopic surgery. The mean number of surgical procedures before definitive treatment was 2.4. All patients had Strasberg E3/E4 injuries, and vascular injury was present in all cases. Eight patients underwent right hepatectomy and one underwent left lateral sectionectomy without mortality. Mean time of follow up was 69.1 mo and after long-term follow up, eight patients are asymptomatic. CONCLUSION: Liver resection is a good therapeutic option for patients with complex postoperative biliary stricture and vascular injury presenting with liver atrophy/abscess in which previous hepaticojejunostomy has failed.
- Laparoscopic vs. open left lateral sectionectomy: An update meta-analysis of randomized and non-randomized controlled trials(2019) MACACARI, Rodrigo Luiz; COELHO, Fabricio Ferreira; BERNARDO, Wanderley Marques; KRUGER, Jaime Arthur Pirola; JEISMANN, Vagner Birk; FONSECA, Gilton Marques; CESCONETTO, Danielle Menezes; CECCONELLO, Ivan; HERMAN, PauloBackground: Left lateral sectionectomy (LLS) is thought to be the anatomical liver resection most suitable for the laparoscopic approach. Despite increasing popularity, comparative analysis of laparoscopic and open LLS are mostly limited to retrospective, underpowered studies with small sample size. Recent population-based studies and prospective trials have generated new data; however, this new body of knowledge has not been submitted systematic reviews or meta-analyses and high quality evidence regarding the actual benefits of minimally invasive LLS is lacking. Methods: Systematic review of studies published until December 31st, 2017 and indexed in Medline, EMBASE, Cochrane Library Central and Scielo/LILACS databases. Randomized controlled trials and observational studies comparing perioperative results of laparoscopic and open LLS were included. Studies with patients submitted to LLS for living donation were excluded. Treatment outcomes, including conversion rates, estimated blood loss, transfusion rates, operative time, length of in-hospital stay, morbidity and mortality rates, were evaluated. Results: The primary search yielded 2838 articles, 23 of which (21 observational studies and 2 randomized controlled trials; 3415 patients) were included in the meta-analysis. Overall conversion rate was 7.4%. Patients submitted to laparoscopic LLS had less blood loss (mean difference, MD = - 119.81 ml, 95% CI = - 127.90, - 111.72, P < .00001, I-2 = 32%, N = 618), lower transfusion rates (4.1% vs. 10.1%; risk difference, RD = - 0.06, 95% CI = - 0.08, - 0.05, P < .00001, I-2 = 13%, N = 2968) and shorter length of in-hospital stay (MD = - 2.02 days, 95% CI = - 2.15, - 1.89, P < .00001, I-2 = 77%, N= 3160) compared to those undergoing open surgery. Marginally decreased overall complication (21.4% vs. 27.5%; RD = -0.03, 95% CI = - 0.06, 0.00, P =. 05, I-2 = 0%, N= 3268) and perioperative mortality (0.3% vs. 1.5%; RD = - 0.01, 95% CI = - 0.02, - 0.00, P =. 01, I-2 = 0%; N= 3332) rates were also observed. Operative time and biliary, cardiac or pulmonary complication rates did not differ significantly between groups. Conclusion: Current evidence supports the safety and feasibility of laparoscopic LLS. The laparoscopic approach is associated with reduced blood loss, lower transfusion rates and shorter length of in-hospital stay and should be considered the gold-standard for LLS.
- Combined liver and multivisceral resections: A comparative analysis of short and long-term outcomes(2020) JUNIOR, Sergio S.; COELHO, Fabricio F.; TUSTUMI, Francisco; CASSENOTE, Alex J. F.; JEISMANN, Vagner B.; FONSECA, Gilton M.; KRUGER, Jaime A. P.; ERNANI, Lucas; CECCONELLO, Ivan; HERMAN, PauloBackground En bloc liver and adjacent organs resections are technically demanding procedures. Few case series and nonmatched comparative studies reported the outcomes of multivisceral liver resections (MLRs). Objectives To compare the short and long-term outcomes of patients submitted MLRs with those submitted to isolated hepatectomies. Methods From a prospective database, a case-matched 1:2 study was performed comparing MLRs and isolated hepatectomy. Additionally, a risk analysis was performed to evaluate the association between MLRs and perioperative morbidity, mortality, and long-term survival. Results Fifty-three MLRs were compared with 106 matched controls. Patients undergoing MLRs had longer operative time (430 [320-525] vs 360 [270-440] minutes,P = .005); higher estimated blood loss (600 [400-800] vs 400 [100-600] mL;P = .011); longer hospital stay (8 [6-14] vs 7 [5-9] days;P = .003); and higher postoperative mortality (9.4% vs 1.9%,P = .042). Number of resected organs was not an independent prognostic factor for perioperative major complications (odds ratio [OR], 1 organ = 1.8 [0.54-6.05]; OR >= 2, organs = 4.0 [0.35-13.84]) or perioperative mortality (OR, 1, organ = 5.2 [0.91-29.51]; OR >= 2, organs = 6.5 [0.52-79.60]). No differences in overall (P = .771) and disease-free survival (P = .28) were observed. Conclusion MLRs are feasible with acceptable morbidity but relatively high perioperative mortality. MLRs did not negatively affect long-term outcomes.
- Prognostic significance of poorly differentiated clusters and tumor budding in colorectal liver metastases(2018) FONSECA, Gilton M.; MELLO, Evandro S. de; FARAJ, Sheila F.; KRUGER, Jaime A. P.; COELHO, Fabricio F.; JEISMANN, Vagner B.; LUPINACCI, Renato M.; CECCONELLO, Ivan; ALVES, Venancio A. F.; PAWLIK, Timothy M.; HERMAN, PauloBackgroundHistomorphological features have been described as prognostic factors after resection of colorectal liver metastases (CLM). The objectives of this study were to assess the prognostic significance of tumor budding (TB) and poorly differentiated clusters (PDC) among CLM, and their association with other prognostic factors. MethodsWe evaluated 229 patients who underwent a first resection of CLM. Slides stained by HE were assessed for TB, PDC, tumor border pattern, peritumoral pseudocapsule, peritumoral, and intratumoral inflammatory infiltrate. Lymphatic and portal invasion were evaluated through D2-40 and CD34 antibody. ResultsFactors independently associated with poor overall survival were nodules>4 (P=0.002), presence of PDC G3 (P=0.007), portal invasion (P=0.005), and absence of tumor pseudocapsule (P=0.006). Factors independently associated with disease-free survival included number of nodules>4 (P<0.001), presence of PDC G3 (P=0.005), infiltrative border (P=0.031), portal invasion (P=0.006), and absent/mild peritumoral inflammatory infiltrate (P=0.002). PDC and TB were also associated with histological factors, as portal invasion (TB), peritumoral inflammatory infiltration (PDC), infiltrative border, and absence of tumor pseudocapsule (TB and PDC). ConclusionsThis is the first study demonstrating PDC as a prognostic factor in CLM. TB was also a prognostic factor, but it was not an independent predictor of survival.
- Laparoscopic Resection of Hepatocellular Carcinoma: When, Why, and How? A Single-Center Experience(2014) HERMAN, Paulo; PERINI, Marcos Vinicius; COELHO, Fabricio Ferreira; KRUGER, Jaime Arthur Pirolla; LUPINACCI, Renato Micelli; FONSECA, Gilton Marques; LOPES, Felipe de Lucena Moreira; CECCONELLO, IvanPurpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate short- and intermediate-term results of laparoscopic liver resection in selected patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Patients and Methods: Eighty-five patients with HCC were subjected to liver resection between February 2007 and January 2013. From these, 30 (35.2%) were subjected to laparoscopic liver resection and were retrospectively analyzed. Special emphasis was given to the indication criteria and to surgical results. Results: There were 21 males and 9 females with a mean age of 57.4 years. Patients were subjected to 10 nonanatomic and 20 anatomic resections. Two patients were subjected to hand-assisted procedures (right posterior sectionectomies); all other patients were subjected to totally laparoscopic procedures. Conversion to open surgery was necessary in 4 patients (13.3%). Postoperative complications were observed in 12 patients (40%), and the mortality rate was 3.3%. Mean overall survival was 29.8 months, with 3-year overall and disease-free survival rates of 76% and 58%, respectively. Conclusions: Laparoscopic treatment of selected patients with HCC is safe and feasible and can lead to good short- and intermediate-term results.
- Prognostic implication of mucinous histology in resected colorectal cancer liver metastases(2014) LUPINACCI, Renato Micelli; MELLO, Evandro Sobroza; COELHO, Fabricio Ferreira; KRUGER, Jaime Arthur Pirolla; PERINI, Marcos Vinicius; PINHEIRO, Rafael S.; FONSECA, Gilton Marques; CECCONELLO, Ivan; HERMAN, PauloBackground. Colorectal mucinous adenocarcinoma (MAC) is a subtype of colorectal adenocarcinoma with prominent mucin production associated with proximal location of tumor, advanced stage at diagnosis, microsatellite instability, and BRAF mutation. The prognostic implication of MAC in colorectal cancer liver metastases (CRCLM) is unknown. The purpose of our study was to determine the frequency and elucidate the prognostic implication of mucinous histology in CRCLM. Methods. The medical records of 118 patients who underwent CRCLM resection between 2000 and 2010 were reviewed. Clinicopathologic variables and outcome parameters were examined. Resected specimens were submitted to routine histologic evaluation. Patients were grouped according to the metastasis mucinous content: >50%, MAC;.<50%, adenocarcinoma with intermediated mucinous component (AIM); and without any mucinous component, non-MAC (NMA). Results. Mean follow-up after resection was 37 months. Tumor recurrence was, observed in 75% of patients. Overall survival and disease-free survival rates after hepatectomy were 61%, 56%, and 26%, 24% at 3 and 5 years, respectively. Tumors with mucinous component (AIM and MAC) were related to proximal location of the primary tumor and were more frequently observed in females. Multivariate analysis revealed that MAC was an independent negative prognostic factor (hazard ratio, 3.13; 95% CI, 1.30-6.68; P = .011) compared with non-MAC (NMA and AIM). Conclusion. MAC has an adverse prognostic impact compared with NMA, which may influence therapeutic strategy raising an important subject for discussion and future investigation.
bookPart Cistos hepáticos(2012) PERINI, Marcos Vinicius; COELHO, Fabricio Ferreira; KRUGER, Jaime; HERMAN, Paulo; CECCONELLO, Ivan; ALBUQUERQUE, Luiz Augusto Carneiro; BRESCIANI, Claudio José Caldas; ZILBERSTEIN, Bruno- Preoperative strategies to improve resectability for hepatocellular carcinoma: a systematic review and meta-analysis(2018) TUSTUMI, Francisco; ERNANI, Lucas; COELHO, Fabricio F.; BERNARDO, Wanderley M.; JUNIOR, Sergio S.; KRUGER, Jaime A. P.; FONSECA, Gilton M.; JEISMANN, Vagner B.; CECCONELLO, Ivan; HERMAN, PauloBackground: Preoperative strategies to increase the future liver remnant are useful methods to improve resectability rates for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The aim of this study was to perform a systematic review and meta-analysis of the main strategies used for this purpose. Methods: A systematic review was performed in PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane and Scielo/LILACS. The procedures included for analysis were portal vein embolization or ligation (PVE/PVL), sequential trans-arterial embolization and PVE (TACE + PVE), radioembolization (RE) and associated liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy (ALPPS). Perioperative morbidity and mortality, post-hepatectomy liver failure (PHLF), and survival rates were evaluated. Results: A total of 46 studies were included in the systematic review (1284 patients). Resection rate was higher in TACE + PVE (90%; N = 315) when compared to PVE/PVL (75%; N = 254; P = < 0.001) and similar to ALPPS (84%; N = 43; P = 0.374) and RE (100%; N = 28; P = 0.14). ALPPS was associated with higher PHLF and perioperative mortality rates when compared to PVE/PVL and TACE + PVE. ALPPS and RE showed higher risk of major complications than PVE/PVL and TACE + PVE. Conclusion: Preoperative strategies to increase liver volume are effective in achieving resectability of HCC. TACE + PVE is as safe as PVL/PVE providing higher OS. ALPPS is associated with a higher risk of PHLF, major complications, and mortality. RE despite the small experience seems to present similar resection rate and OS as TACE + PVE with higher rate of major complications.
- Hand-assisted Approach as a Model to Teach Complex Laparoscopic Hepatectomies: Preliminary Results(2017) MAKDISSI, Fabio F.; JEISMANN, Vagner B.; KRUGER, Jaime A. P.; COELHO, Fabricio F.; RIBEIRO-JUNIOR, Ulysses; CECCONELLO, Ivan; HERMAN, PauloBackground: Currently, there are limited and scarce models to teach complex liver resections by laparoscopy. The aim of this study is to present a hand-assisted technique to teach complex laparoscopic hepatectomies for fellows in liver surgery. Materials and Methods: Laparoscopic hand-assisted approach for resections of liver lesions located in posterosuperior segments (7, 6/7, 7/8, 8) was performed by the trainees with guidance and intermittent intervention of a senior surgeon. Data as: (1) percentage of time that the senior surgeon takes the surgery as main surgeon, (2) need for the senior surgeon to finish the procedure, (3) necessity of conversion, (4) bleeding with hemodynamic instability, (5) need for transfusion, (6) oncological surgical margins, were evaluated. Results: In total, 12 cases of complex laparoscopic liver resections were performed by the trainee. All cases included deep lesions situated on liver segments 7 or 8. The senior surgeon intervention occurred in a mean of 20% of the total surgical time (range, 0% to 50%). A senior intervention > 20% was necessary in 2 cases. There was no need for conversion or reoperation. Neither major bleeding nor complications resulted from the teaching program. All surgical margins were clear. Conclusions: This preliminary report shows that hand-assistance is a safe way to teach complex liver resections without compromising patient safety or oncological results. More cases are still necessary to draw definitive conclusions about this teaching method.
