목적: 위암의 근치적 절제술 후에 재발은 여러 형태로 발생한다. 특히 현행성 재발은 간 부위에서 주로 나타나는데 이러한 간계발의 임상병리학적 위험인자를 예측하기 위해 본 연구를 시행하였다. 대상 및 방법: 1992년 1월부터 1999년 12월까지 전북대학교병원에서 위암으로 근치적 수술치료를 받았던 838명의 환자 중 201명의 재발환자를 대상으로 간 재발과 관련된 임상병리학적 위험인자를 찾기 위해 후향적 연구를 하였다. 결과: 201명의 재발환자 중 59명이 간재발을 보였다. 로지스틱 회귀분석을 통한 다변량분석에서 간재발의 독립적인 위험인자로는 Lauren의 분류에서 장형인 경우(OR, 6.66; 95% Cl, 1.53 to 28.9; P=0.011), 근위부 절제연의 길이가 6cm 미만인 경우(OR, 3.76; 95% Cl, 1.03 to 13.67; P=0.045)가 관련되어 있었다. 결론: 위암의 수술 치료 후 간재발의 임상병리학적 위험인자들의 다양한 연구 조사와 더불어 분자생물학적인 연구가 더해진다면 간 재발에 대한 예측이 가능할 것이며 고위험 환자에게 적절한 치료법의 개발에도 도움이 될 수 있을 것이다.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate children who underwent hepatic resection for primary malignant hepatic tumor in the period from January 1994 to December 2001. A total of 8 patients, seven with hepatoblastoma (HB) and one with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), were studied. One HCC was resectable at the initial diagnosis, but five cases of unresectable HB received two cycles of transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) before operation. One patient with an unresectable HB with bone marrow metastasis was operated after one cycle of TACE and one cycle of systemic chemotherapy based on CCG-823F protocol. Another unresectable HB patient received systemic chemotherapy instead of TACE before operation. Postoperative chemotherapy was administered to all of the patients after complete surgical resection on CCG-823F protocol. All 6 patients who underwent TACE and neoadjuvant chemotherapy showed marked reduction in tumor volume and a clear outline of the lesion. Major complication was not noticed. Mean alpha-fetoprotein (${\alpha}$-FP) level at diagnosis, after neoadjuvant chemotherapy and after postoperative chemotherapy was 9,818 (42-35,350), 664, and 10.1 ng/mL, respectively. Half life of the ${\alpha}$-FP after complete resection was 5.1 days (3.0-8.7 days). Median follow up period was 57.1 months (10-97 months) and all the patients are alive with NED. In conclusion, preoperative chemotherapy, especially TACE, is effective, safe, and useful to treat initially unresectable hepatoblastoma, and serial level of the serum ${\alpha}$-FP is a useful tumor marker for diagnosis and monitoring therapeutic responses.

간이식 수술을 함에 있어서 간 내부의 혈관의 형태를 알고 시작하는 것이 수술의 성공률을 매우 높일 수 있다. 본 논문은 조영제를 투여한 정상 환자의 복부 MDCT를 이용하여 얻어진 영상을 다른 여러 장기부분은 제거하고 간 영상만을 추출한 후 간 내의 혈관들의 기본형태를 파악하여 몇몇 구조단위들을 만들고 Morphological filtering을 이용하여 주요 혈관인 좌, 우, 중간정맥을 찾아낸다. 중간정맥을 기준으로 간 실질을 절단하여 절단된 부분의 크기를 예측하고 수술전에 전체 상황을 파악하기 위한 연구이다. 간의 추출 방법은 명암값의 범위와 분포 샘플링 과정에 의한 명암값 분포비율을 가지고 배경과 근육층을 제거하였다. 간의 대략적인 위치 정보와 몸통의 위치정보를 이용하여 단위 매쉬영상과 일치되는 영상을 찾은 후 결과 영상을 조합하고 8방향 연결성을 이용하여 확장하고 화소간의 채우기 과정을 거쳐 최종적인 간영상을 추출하였다. 추출된 간 영상에서 간 영역의 특징적인 명암값과 다양한 구조단위를 가지고 Morpological Filtering을 수행 한 후 나타난 결과들을 조합하여 만들어진 영상에서 각 슬라이스 별로 크기순으로 큰 부분들을 남겨두어 굵은 혈관만을 추출하였다. 추출된 영상들을 3D로 구성 시 자연스럽게 보여지도록 인터폴레이션을 수행한 후 3D Reconstruction 을 수행하여 3D 형태의 간 혈관을 보고 중간 정맥을 파악하여 간 실질의 절단 위치를 예측하게 된다. 절단되어진 간 실질의 크기를 확인하고 계산에 의하여 수술 성공 가능성을 파악할 수 있다.

Background: We evaluated technique of hepatic resections using suprahilar-extrafascial dissection of Glissonean pedicle with vascular stapling device for pedicle transection with intent to minimize operative time and blood loss. Methods: We analyzed the clinical records of 326 patients who underwent anatomic liver resection by suprahilar-extrafascial pedicle isolation with vascular stapling division technique. Results: The minor liver resections were associated with significantly shorter surgery duration (105.1±21.1 vs. 225.6±75.6) and transection time (40.1±14.5 vs. 96.3±55.2) than major hepatectomies (p<0.0001 for all). The mean blood loss was 350.8±100.5 mL in minor resection and 485.4±250.2 mL in major resection (p=0.001). The mean blood transfusion requirement was 400.8±109.5 mL for minor resections and 550.9±100.0 mL for major hepatectomy (p=0.072). There was no significant difference in morbidity and mortality between groups (p=0.980; p=0.945). Major as well as minor liver resection were oncology superior with no significant difference in the 5-year overall survival rates. Conclusion: Suprahilar-extrafascial dissection of Glissonean pedicle represents an effective and safe technique of liver resection. Presented approach allows early and easy ischemic delineation of appropriate liver territory to be removed with selective inflow vascular control. It is not time consuming and it is very useful in re-resection, as well as oncological reasonable.

Backgrounds/Aims: It is generally accepted that non-anatomical resection (NAR) in colorectal liver metastasis (CRLM) has comparable safety and efficacy compared to anatomical resection (AR); however, there are reports that AR may have better outcomes in KRAS mutated CRLM. This study aimed to determine the effects of KRAS mutations and surgical techniques on survival outcomes in CRLM patients. Methods: Two hundred fifty patients who underwent hepatic resection of CRLM with known KRAS mutational status between 2007 and 2018 were analyzed. A total of 94 KRAS mutated CRLM and 156 KRAS wild-type CRLM were subdivided by surgical approach and compared for short- and long-term outcomes. Results: In both KRAS wild-type and mutated type, there was no difference in estimated blood loss, postoperative complications, and 30-day mortality. There was no difference in disease-free survival (DFS) between AR and NAR in both groups (p = 0.326, p = 0.954, respectively). Finally, there was no difference in intrahepatic DFS between AR and NAR groups in both the KRAS groups (p = 0.165, p = 0.516, respectively). Conclusions: The presence of KRAS mutation may not be a significant factor when deciding the approach in simultaneous resection of CRLM.

Backgrounds/Aims: Middle hepatic vein (MHV) is usually preserved as a part of the right or left hepatectomy in order preserve the venous outflow of remnant liver. The aim of this study was to evaluate if resection of MHV could influence post-resection outcomes of standard right or left hepatectomy. Methods: Patients who underwent standard right or left hepatectomy between January 2015 and December 2019 were included. Anatomical remnant liver volumes were measured retrospectively using the Hermes workstation (Hermes Medical Solutions AB, Stockholm, Sweden). Uni- and multi-variate analyses were performed to assess the difference in outcomes of those with preservation of MHV and those without preservation. Results: A total of 144 patients were included. Right hepatectomy was performed for 114 (79.2%) and left hepatectomy was performed for 30 (20.8%) patients. MHV was resected for 13 (9.0%) in addition to the standard right or left hepatectomy. Median remnant liver volume was significantly higher in the MHV resected group (p < 0.01). There was no significant difference in serum level of bilirubin, international normalized ratio, alanine aminotransferase, creatinine on postoperative day 1, 3, 5, or 10, ≥ grade IIIa complications (p = 0.44), or 90-day mortality (p = 0.41). On multivariable analysis, resection of the MHV did not influence the incidence of post hepatectomy liver failure (p = 0.52). Conclusions: Resection of the MHV at standard right or left hepatectomy did not have a negative impact on postoperative outcomes of patients with adequate remnant liver volume.

위암의 간전이는 수술적 절제, 전신적 항암약물요법, 간동 맥색전술 등의 여러 가지 치료방법이 사용되고 있으나 예후가 매우 불량하여 아직까지 표준치료방법이 정립되어 있지 않은 상황이다. 최근 간암 등에서 많이 사용되고 있는 고주파열치료(Radiofrequency)가 위암의 간전이 치료방법으로 시도되고 있으나, 아직까지 문헌에 보고된 예는 많지 않아 정확한 치료성적을 판단할 수는 없으나 기존의 수술적 방법에 비교하여 유사한 성적을 보임으로써 위암의 간전이 치료의 새로운 치료방법으로 대두되고 있다. 고주파 열치료의 치료성적을 정확히 평가하기 위하여 위암의 간전이 환자에 대한 전향적 연구가 필요한 실정이다.

A 15-year-old spayed female Yorkshire Terrier was presented to our hospital with a history of anorexia, depression and abdominal pain. Diagnostic procedures including blood test, radiography and ultrasonography were performed. Abdominal ultrasonography revealed multiple hypoechoic cysts in the left lobe of the liver. Over time, the cysts increased in size and became more echogenic. Four days later, the rupture of the largest cyst was suspected, and hepatic abscesses with bacteria were confirmed by aspiration of the cyst. Despite surgical resection of the abscessed liver lobe, antibiotic administration, and supportive therapy, the dog died 9 days after presentation to the hospital and 4 days after the surgical procedure. The present case report described the overall diagnostic and therapeutic approaches for liver abscesses in a dog.
