Objective To explore value of multidisciplinary team (MDT) discussion in comprehensive downstaging treatment of liver cancer.Method The clinical data of 2 patients with liver cancer who could not undergo the radical surgery admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Southwest Medical University were analyzed retrospectively.Results Case 1 was diagnosed as the liver cancer with extensive double lung metastasis at admission. The clinical stage was stage Ⅲb; After MDT discussion, the patient was treated with chemotherapy and embolization via hepatic artery and bronchial artery; At the same time, the patient was treated with apatinib; At present, the metastasis of both lungs disappeared completely; The clinical stage was stage ⅡB, and the radical resection was proposed. Case 2 was diagnosed as the right liver cancer at admission. The clinical stage was stage Ⅰ b. The preoperative examination showed that the hepatic reserve function was poor and the patient could not tolerate the half hepatectomy; After MDT discussion, the patient was treated with the combination of chemotherapy and embolization via the hepatic artery and apatinib in the same period; At the same time, the patient was treated with liver protection. The clinical stage was reduced to stage Ⅰ a. The hepatic reserve function improved and the laparoscopic right hemihepatectomy was performed, no recurrence or metastasis was found after 3 months follow-up.Conclusion Comprehensive downstaging treatment based on MDT model could bring better clinical outcomes for patients with liver cancer who are unable to undergo one-stage radical surgery.
