  • Surgical Treatment of Complex Giant Cavernous Hemangioma of Liver: An Analysis of 55 Cases

    ObjectiveTo summarize experiences of surgical treatment of complex giant cavernous hemangioma of the liver. MethodThe clinical data of 55 patients with complex hepatic cavernous hemangioma with tumor diameter more than 10 cm and in close proximity to hepatic hilar region or vena cava inferior underwent surgical treatment from January 2009 to December 2014 were analyzed retrospectively. ResultsAmong these 55 patients with complex giant cavernous hemangioma,13 cases (23.6%) were male,42 cases (76.4%) were female.The median age was 49.2 years (range from 23 to 68 years).Hepatic hemangioma with multiple lesions was most common (71.0%,39/55).The tumor happened mostly in the right hepatic lobe (47.3%,26/55).The median size of complex giant cavernous hemangioma was 16.2 cm (10.2-50.0 cm).The liver functions of all the patients were normal (Child-Pugh A).Different methods of hepatic inflow occlusion and surgical procedures were performed according to the tumor location and size.Of the patients,17 cases were underwent Pringle maneuver,12 cases were underwent modified Pringle maneuver and 1 case was underwent hemihepatic vascular occlusion;28 cases were treated by extracapsular enucleation,27 cases by liver resection.The average operative time was 202 min (85-420 min).The average intraoperative blood loss was 855.5 mL (50-3 000 mL).Twenty-six cases (47.3%) had no blood transfusion,and 10 cases (18.2%) had autologous blood transfusion.The associated complications occurred in 7 patients after surgery,and no surgical death occurred.The median postoperative hospital stay was 14.8 d. ConclusionsThe essential points in operation for the complex giant cavernous hemangioma are the control and management of the operative massive bleeding,and the preservation of the normal hepatic parenchyma as much as possible.The surgical treatment is safe and feasible under the proper hepatic inflow occlusion and resection methods.The prevention and management of bile leakage is also important.
