- 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 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.
- Tumor growth pattern as predictor of colorectal liver metastasis recurrence(2014) PINHEIRO, Rafael S.; HERMAN, Paulo; LUPINACCI, Renato M.; LAI, Quirino; MELLO, Evandro S.; COELHO, Fabricio F.; PERINI, Marcos V.; PUGLIESE, Vincenzo; ANDRAUS, Wellington; CECCONELLO, Ivan; D'ALBUQUERQUE, Luiz CarneiroBACKGROUND: Surgical resection is the gold standard therapy for the treatment of colorectal liver metastases (CRM). The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of tumor growth patterns on disease recurrence. METHODS: We enrolled 91 patients who underwent CRM resection. Pathological specimens were prospectively evaluated, with particular attention given to tumor growth patterns (infiltrative vs pushing). RESULTS: Tumor recurrence was observed in 65 patients (71.4%). According to multivariate analysis, 3 or more lesions (P = .05) and the infiltrative tumor margin type (P = .05) were unique independent risk factors for recurrence. Patients with infiltrative margins had a 5-year disease-free survival rate significantly inferior to patients with pushing margins (20.2% vs 40.5%, P = .05). CONCLUSIONS: CRM patients with pushing margins presented superior disease-free survival rates compared with patients with infiltrative margins. Thus, the adoption of the margin pattern can represent a tool for improved selection of patients for adjuvant treatment.
- Hepatocellular adenoma: an excellent indication for laparoscopic liver resection(2012) HERMAN, Paulo; COELHO, Fabricio Ferreira; PERINI, Marcos Vinicius; LUPINACCI, Renato Micelli; D'ALBUQUERQUE, Luiz Augusto Carneiro; CECCONELLO, IvanObjectives: Laparoscopic resection for benign liver disease has gained wide acceptance in recent years and hepatocellular adenoma (HA) seems to be an appropriate indication. This study aimed to discuss diagnosis and treatment strategies, and to assess the feasibility, safety and outcomes of pure laparoscopic liver resection (LLR) in a large series of patients with HA. Methods: Of 88 patients who underwent pure LLR, 31 were identified as having HA. Diagnosis was based on radiological evaluation and resections were performed for lesions measuring >5.0 cm. Results: The sample included 29 female and two male patients. Their mean age was 33.2 years. A total of 27 patients had a single lesion, one patient had two and one had four lesions. The two remaining patients had liver adenomatosis. Mean tumour size was 7.5 cm. Three right hepatectomies, 17 left lateral sectionectomies and 11 wedge resections or segmentectomies were performed. There was no need for blood transfusion or conversion to open surgery. Postoperative complications occurred in two patients. Mean hospital stay was 3.8 days. Conclusions: Hepatocellular adenoma should be regarded as an excellent indication for pure LLR. Pure LLR is safe and feasible and should be considered the standard of care for the treatment of HA when performed by surgeons with experience in liver and laparoscopic surgery.
- 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.
- Dimensão da margem cirúrgica nas ressecções de metástase hepática de câncer colorretal: impacto na recidiva e sobrevida(2013) HERMAN, Paulo; PINHEIRO, Rafael S.; MELLO, Evandro S.; LAI, Quirino; LUPINACCI, Renato M.; PERINI, Marcos V.; PUGLIESE, Vincenzo; ANDRAUS, Wellington; COELHO, Fabricio F.; CECCONELLO, Ivan; D'ALBUQUERQUE, Luiz C.BACKGROUND: Approximately 50% of the patients with a colorectal tumor develop liver metastasis, for which hepatectomy is the standard care. Several prognostic factors have been discussed, among which is the surgical margin. This is a recurring issue, since no consensus exists as to the minimum required distance between the metastatic nodule and the liver transection line. AIM: To evaluate the surgical margins in liver resections for colorectal metastases and their correlation with local recurrence and survival. METHODS: A retrospective study based on the review of the medical records of 91 patients who underwent resection of liver metastases of colorectal cancer. A histopathological review was performed of all the cases; the smallest surgical margin was verified, and the late outcome of recurrence and survival was evaluated. RESULTS: No statistical difference was found in recurrence rates and overall survival between the patients with negative or positive margins (R0 versus R1); likewise, there was no statistical difference between subcentimeter margins and those greater than 1 cm. The disease-free survival of the patients with microscopically positive margins was significantly worse than that of the patients with negative margins. The uni- and multivariate analyses did not establish the surgical margin (R1, narrow or less than 1 cm) as a risk factor for recurrence. CONCLUSION: The resections of liver metastases with negative margins, independently of the margin width, had no impact on tumor recurrence (intra- or extrahepatic) or patient survival
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- Surgical treatment of fibrolamellar hepatocellular carcinoma: an underestimated malignant tumor?(2014) HERMAN, Paulo; CHAGAS, Aline Lopes; PERINI, Marcos Vinicius; COELHO, Fabricio Ferreira; FONSECA, Gilton Marques; ALVES, Venancio Avancini Ferreira; CARRILHO, Flair Jose; CECCONELLO, IvanBACKGROUND: Fibrolamellar hepatocellular carcinoma (FLHCC) is a rare disease with an indolent behavior. Its prognosis is better than that of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. The authors present their experience with resection of FLHCC. METHODS: Twenty-one patients with FLHCC were treated at our institution between 1990 and 2012. Of these patients, 14 were subjected to resection of the tumor. Patient demographics, medical history, results of imaging studies and laboratory tests, surgical data, and pathologic findings were evaluated. RESULTS: The median age of the patients at the diagnosis of the tumor was 20 years and 14 patients were female. None of the patients had tumor-associated chronic liver disease or cirrhosis. The mean tumor size was 12.8 cm (range 6-19) and 18 patients had a single liver nodule. Fourteen patients were subjected to hepatectomy and six of them had lymph node metastases resected. Pathologic evaluation revealed that 5 (35.7%) patients had major vascular invasion. Tumor recurrence was seen in 8 patients (66.7%), during a follow-up. The median survival time for patients who were subjected to resection was 36 months. The 5-year overall survival rate and disease free survival rate were 28.0% and 8.5%, respectively. Univariate analysis showed that vascular invasion was the only variable associated with the disease free survival rate. CONCLUSIONS: Despite an aggressive treatment, patients with FLHCC presented unexpected low survival rates. It seems that an underestimated malignant behavior is attributed to this disease, and that the forms of adjuvant treatment should be urgently evaluated.
- Superoxid dismutase activity in portal vein endothelium after partial liver resection(2013) SAYAO FILHO, Rogerio Heggendorn; PERINI, Marcos Vinicius; CRUZ, Jose Arnaldo; REQUENA, Juliana; BARBEIRO, Hermes Vieira; MOLAN, Nilza Trindade; LOPASSO, Fabio Pinatel; D'ALBUQUERQUE, Luiz Augusto Carneiro; CECCONELLO, IvanPURPOSE: To investigate superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity in the portal vein endothelium and malondialdehyde acid (MDA) production in liver tissue of rats submitted to 70% hepatectomy. METHODS: Twelve rats were distributed in two groups (hepatectomy and sham). Animals were sacrificed on post operative day 1 and portal vein, liver tissue and blood samples were collected. Portal vein SOD production was measured using lucigenin-amplified chemiluminescence assays. MDA measurement was used as an index of oxidative stress through the formation of TBARS (Thiobarbituric Acid Reactive Species). RESULTS: There was no difference in post operative bilirrubin, AST, ALT levels between groups. DHL level was higher in the hepatectomy group (p=0.01). MDA production in the remnant liver tissue and endothelial portal vein SOD activity were also significantly (p<0.05) elevated in the hepatectomy group when compared to control group. There was no correlation between MDA and SOD activity. SOD activity, on the other hand, showed a positive correlation with LDH level (p= 0.038) and MDA levels showed a positive correlation with AST and ALT levels (p<0.001). CONCLUSION: There is an increased production of malondialdehyde acid in liver tissue after partial hepatectomy and increased activity of superoxide dismutase in portal vein endothelium as well.
- SURGICAL OUTCOMES AND PROGNOSTIC FACTORS IN PATIENTS WITH SYNCHRONOUS COLORECTAL LIVER METASTASES(2014) FONTANA, Rafael; HERMAN, Paulo; PUGLIESE, Vincenzo; PERINI, Marcos Vinicius; COELHO, Fabricio Ferreira; CECCONELLO, IvanContext Colorectal cancer is the second most prevalent cancer worldwide, and the liver is the most common site of metastases. Surgical resection of colorectal liver metastases provides the sole possibility of cure and the best odds of long-term survival. Objectives To describe surgical outcomes and identify features associated with disease prognosis in patients submitted to synchronous colorectal cancer liver metastasis resection. Methods Retrospective study of 59 patients who underwent surgery for synchronous colorectal cancer liver metastasis. Actuarial survival and disease-free survival were assessed, depending on the prognostic variable of interest. Results Postoperative mortality and morbidity rates were 3.38% and 30.50% respectively. Five-year disease-free survival was estimated at 23.96%, and 5-year overall survival, at 38.45%. Carcinoembryonic antigen levels ≥50 ng/mL and presence of three or more liver metastasis were limiting factors for disease-free survival, but did not affect late survival. No patient with liver metastases and extrahepatic disease had disease-free interval longer than 20 months, but this had no significance or impact on long-term survival. None of the prognostic factors assessed had an impact on late survival, although no patients with more than three liver metastases survived beyond 40 months. Conclusions Although Carcinoembryonic antigen levels and number of metastases are prognostic factors that limit disease-free survival, they had no impact on 5-year survival and, therefore, should not determine exclusion from surgical treatment. Resection is the best treatment option for synchronous colorectal liver metastases, and even for patients with multiple metastases, large tumors and extrahepatic disease, it can provide long-term survival rates over 38%.
