Abstract

Purpose

To compare tumor progression in both embolized and non-embolized liver lobes after portal vein embolization (PVE) in patients with bilobar colorectal liver metastases (CLM), according to the initial response to induction chemotherapy.

Methods

From 2002 to 2012, a total of 42 consecutive patients with bilobar CLM initially treated using induction chemotherapy underwent right PVE to achieve adequate future liver remnant volume. Tumoral and liver parenchyma volumes, as well as their volume variations, were measured on computed tomography before and after PVE in both embolized and non-embolized. Patients were classified as fast (≤6 cycles of induction chemotherapy) and slow (>6 cycles) responders.

Results

Overall, 432 metastases were analyzed in 42 patients. Patients were slow responders in 29 (69 %) cases. Tumoral volume increased in 29 (69 %) cases in the embolized liver (+48 %; p < 0.0001), and in 28 (66 %) cases in the non-embolized liver (+31 %; p < 0.0001). Fast responders had a tumoral volume decrease in both embolized (−4 %) and non-embolized (−9 %) lobes. On the opposite side, slow responders had tumoral volume increase in both embolized (+79 %) and non-embolized (+32 %) lobes. On multivariate analysis, a ‘slow’ response to induction chemotherapy was the only factor associated with tumoral progression in both embolized (p = 0.0012) and non-embolized (p = 0.001) lobes.

Conclusion

Tumor growth after PVE is observed in both embolized and non-embolized liver lobes in most patients but is significantly associated with slow response to induction chemotherapy.

Echinokokkose medikamentös behandeln oder operieren?

06.05.2024 DCK 2024 Kongressbericht

Die Therapie von Echinokokkosen sollte immer in spezialisierten Zentren erfolgen. Eine symptomlose Echinokokkose kann – egal ob von Hunde- oder Fuchsbandwurm ausgelöst – konservativ erfolgen. Wenn eine Op. nötig ist, kann es sinnvoll sein, vorher Zysten zu leeren und zu desinfizieren. 

Wie sieht der OP der Zukunft aus?

04.05.2024 DCK 2024 Kongressbericht

Der OP in der Zukunft wird mit weniger Personal auskommen – nicht, weil die Technik das medizinische Fachpersonal verdrängt, sondern weil der Personalmangel es nötig macht.

Umsetzung der POMGAT-Leitlinie läuft

03.05.2024 DCK 2024 Kongressbericht

Seit November 2023 gibt es evidenzbasierte Empfehlungen zum perioperativen Management bei gastrointestinalen Tumoren (POMGAT) auf S3-Niveau. Vieles wird schon entsprechend der Empfehlungen durchgeführt. Wo es im Alltag noch hapert, zeigt eine Umfrage in einem Klinikverbund.

Recycling im OP – möglich, aber teuer

02.05.2024 DCK 2024 Kongressbericht

Auch wenn sich Krankenhäuser nachhaltig und grün geben – sie tragen aktuell erheblich zu den CO2-Emissionen bei und produzieren jede Menge Müll. Ein Pilotprojekt aus Bonn zeigt, dass viele Op.-Abfälle wiederverwertet werden können.

S3-Leitlinie „Diagnostik und Therapie des Karpaltunnelsyndroms“

Karpaltunnelsyndrom BDC Leitlinien Webinare
CME: 2 Punkte

Das Karpaltunnelsyndrom ist die häufigste Kompressionsneuropathie peripherer Nerven. Obwohl die Anamnese mit dem nächtlichen Einschlafen der Hand (Brachialgia parästhetica nocturna) sehr typisch ist, ist eine klinisch-neurologische Untersuchung und Elektroneurografie in manchen Fällen auch eine Neurosonografie erforderlich. Im Anfangsstadium sind konservative Maßnahmen (Handgelenksschiene, Ergotherapie) empfehlenswert. Bei nicht Ansprechen der konservativen Therapie oder Auftreten von neurologischen Ausfällen ist eine Dekompression des N. medianus am Karpaltunnel indiziert.

Radiusfraktur BDC Leitlinien Webinare
CME: 2 Punkte

Das Webinar beschäftigt sich mit Fragen und Antworten zu Diagnostik und Klassifikation sowie Möglichkeiten des Ausschlusses von Zusatzverletzungen. Die Referenten erläutern, welche Frakturen konservativ behandelt werden können und wie. Das Webinar beantwortet die Frage nach aktuellen operativen Therapiekonzepten: Welcher Zugang, welches Osteosynthesematerial? Auf was muss bei der Nachbehandlung der distalen Radiusfraktur geachtet werden?
