Clinical application of isolated hepatectomy with preservation of retrohepatic inferior vena cava and autologous liver transplantation in treating end-stage alveolar hepatic hydatid disease
Exploring the efficacy of in vitro liver resection and autologous liver transplantation with preservation of the posterior inferior vena cava in the treatment of end-stage hepatic alveolar echinococcosis. Retrospective analysis of the clinical data of three patients with hepatic alveolar hydatid cysts treated at the Hydatid Diagnosis and Treatment Center of Qinghai Provincial People's Hospital from January 2017 to March 2019, who underwent ex vivo liver resection and autologous liver transplantation with preservation of the posterior inferior vena cava. Two patients underwent complete dissection of the retrohepatic inferior vena cava from the hydatid lesion during the surgery, without undergoing retrohepatic inferior vena cava bypass or reconstruction. One patient underwent complete preservation of the posterior hepatic inferior vena cava during in vitro hydatid lesion resection, without undergoing artificial blood vessel reconstruction of the posterior hepatic inferior vena cava. Three patients experienced different types of complications after surgery and were successfully discharged after active treatment. After discharge, follow-up for 2-18 months showed that all 3 patients had no thrombotic complications. Among them, 1 patient had recurrent hydatid cysts in their healthy liver, and 2 patients had good liver regeneration and no recurrence of hydatid cysts. In this study, in vitro liver resection and autologous liver transplantation with preservation of the retrohepatic inferior vena cava were effective in treating end-stage hepatic alveolar echinococcosis.
