In situ split plus portal vein ligation (ISLT) – a salvage procedure following inefficient portal vein embolization to gain adequate future liver remnant volume prior to extended liver resection

BMC Surgery, 2020
Background Right extended liver resection is frequently required to achieve tumor-free margins. Portal venous embolization (PVE) of the prospective resected hepatic segments for conditioning segments II/III does not always induce adequate hypertrophy in ...

Combined simultaneous embolization of the portal vein and hepatic vein (double vein embolization) – a technical note about embolization sequence

CVIR Endovascular, 2021
Background Simultaneous portal vein embolization (PVE) and hepatic vein embolization (HVE) has been shown to be feasible, safe and lead to a faster growth of future liver remnant (FLR) than PVE alone. The objective of this study is to highlight different

Looking into the future (remnant liver)

Translational Cancer Research, 2017
The most common primary malignancy of the liver is hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) (1). Approximately 80% of patients with HCC show chronic liver disease and cirrhosis. Chronic infection with hepatitis B or C virus, alcoholic liver disease and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis are the most frequent causes for developing liver cirrhosis (2).

Can 3D imaging modeling recognize functional tissue and predict liver failure? A retrospective study based on 3D modelling of the major hepatectomies after hepatic modulation

BMC Surgery, 2023
Background Thanks to the introduction of radiomics, 3d reconstruction can be able to analyse tissues and recognise true hypertrophy from non-functioning tissue in patients treated with major hepatectomies with hepatic modulation.The aim of this study is ...

The diagnostic value of 99m-Tc GSA scintigraphy for liver function and remnant liver volume in hepatic surgery: a retrospective observational cohort study in 27 patients

Patient Safety in Surgery, 2018
Background The aim was to analyze hepatic hypertrophy after portal vein embolization (PVE) and Associating Liver Partition with Portal vein ligation for Staged hepatectomy (ALPPS) to determine whether clinical circumstances associated with major hepatic ...

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

EJNMMI 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.

Influence of endovascular preparation on results of surgical treatment of liver through hemangoma

Ендоваскулярна нейрорентгенохірургія, 2018
Objective – to study the effectiveness of preoperative portal vein branches embolization (PVE) in patients with advanced liver hemangiomas in the complex of preparation of these patients for radical liver resection. Materials and methods.

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

BMC 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 ...

The Correlation between the CT Liver Volume and the Actual Weight of the Resected Cirrhotic Liver in Transplantation Patients

Journal of Health Science and Medical Research (JHSMR), 2022
Objective: Volumetric assessment with computed tomography (CT), known as CT volumetry, is the preferred method for estimating future liver remnant. However, the data regarding the usage of CT volumetry to estimate future liver remnant of the diseased ...
