Liver Resection for Patients With Hepatocellular Carcinoma and Clinically Significant Portal Hypertension

January 30, 2024 updated by: Tang-Du Hospital

Liver Resection for Patients With Hepatocellular Carcinoma and Clinically Significant Portal Hypertension: A Chinese Multicentre Retrospective Cohort Study

Clinically significant portal hypertension limits the therapeutic options for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), which is closely associated with patient prognosis. HCC patients with CPSH are heterogeneous and treatment allocation remains controversial. The aim of this study was to compare the survival benefits of liver resection (LR) and transarterial chemoembolisation (TACE) in these populations.

Probability Sample

Study Population

Study data were extracted from a nationwide database of HCC patients treated at 15 Chinese centres between January 2012 and December 2022. We included patients who were diagnosed with HCC according to the American Association for the Study of the Liver Disease/European Association for the Study of the Liver Guidelines and who received conventional liver resection or transarterial chemoembolisation

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • HCC patients treated conventional liver resection or transarterial chemoembolisation

Exclusion Criteria:

  • (1) presence of types III/IV portal vein tumour thrombosis (PVTT), hepatic artery, biliary duct or inferior vena cava invasion; (2) presence of extrahepatic spread (EHS); (3) underwent previous treatments; (4) Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status (ECOG-PS) >1; (5) diffuse tumor nodules; (6) combined with other tumours or severe cardiac, cerebral, and renal insufficiency; (7) non-Clinically significant portal hypertension(CSPH), and (8) absence of baseline information

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
liver resection
transarterial chemoembolisation
During transarterial chemoembolisation(TACE), a vascular catheter was selectively inserted into the tumour-feeding artery with an injection containing a mixture of doxorubicin (10-50 mg) and lipiodol (2-20 mL), followed by embolisation using gelatin sponge particles. TACE was repeated when residual viable tumours were confirmed or new lesions developed in patients with adequate liver function
