Comparison of nuclear imaging techniques and volumetric imaging for the prediction of postoperative mortality and liver failure in patients undergoing localized liver-directed treatments: a systematic review

open access: yesEJNMMI Research, 2021
Background/aims Although volumetric imaging by computed tomography (CT) is the gold standard for preoperative assessment of the future liver remnant, nuclear imaging studies have shown promising data.

Dose finding study for unilobar radioembolization using holmium-166 microspheres to improve resectability in patients with HCC: the RALLY protocol

open access: yesBMC Cancer, 2023
Background High dose unilobar radioembolization (also termed ‘radiation lobectomy’)—the transarterial unilobar infusion of radioactive microspheres as a means of controlling tumour growth while concomitantly inducing future liver remnant hypertrophy—has ...

Totally laparoscopic associating simultaneous bile duct and portal vein ligation for planned hepatectomy for primary liver cancer: a case report

open access: yesJournal of Medical Case Reports, 2023
Background Some patients with liver cancer lose the chance to have surgical treatment due to insufficient future remnant liver. To address this problem, individual or occlusion of both the portal vein and the bile duct was used to achieve quick ...

Efficacy of the association liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy for the treatment of solitary huge hepatocellular carcinoma: a retrospective single-center study

open access: yesWorld Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2021
Background The feasibility of association liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy (ALPPS) for solitary huge hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC, maximal diameter ≥ 10 cm) remains uncertain. This study aims to evaluate the safety and the

Partial ALPPS versus complete ALPPS for staged hepatectomy

open access: yesBMC Gastroenterology, 2019
Background Associating liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy (ALPPS) can induce a stronger regenerative ability than traditional 2-stage hepatectomy (TSH). ALPPS has become popular for achieving fast hypertrophy in patients with

Two-stage hepatectomy in resection of colorectal liver metastases – a single-institution experience with case-control matching and review of the literature

open access: yesRadiology and Oncology, 2023
Two-stage hepatectomy (TSH) has been proposed for patients with bilateral liver tumours who have a high risk of posthepatectomy liver failure after one-stage hepatectomy (OSH).

Rescue ALPPS: Intraoperative Conversion to ALPPS during Synchronous Resection of Rectal Cancer and Liver Metastasis

open access: yesCase Reports in Surgery, 2014
Future liver remnant (FLR) is the most important deciding factor in planning for liver resection. Portal vein embolization (PVE) was first introduced in the 1980s to induce liver hypertrophy, enabling removal of multiple/bilobar tumors.

Successful Thrombectomy via a Surgically Reopened Umbilical Vein for Extended Portal Vein Thrombosis Caused by Portal Vein Embolization prior to Extended Liver Resection

open access: yesCase Reports in Gastroenterology, 2020
Selective portal vein embolization (PVE) before extended liver surgery is an accepted method to stimulate growth of the future liver remnant. Portal vein thrombosis (PVT) of the main stem and the non-targeted branches to the future liver remnant is a ...

Increased future liver function after modified associating liver partition and portal vein ligation/embolization for staged hepatectomy

open access: yesActa Radiologica Open, 2022
Background The increasing ratio of functional future liver remnant (functional %FLR) after modified associating liver partition and portal vein ligation/embolization for staged hepatectomy (modified-ALPPS) compared with portal vein embolization (PVE) has
