Abstract Background The aim of the study is to compare the safety and efficacy of modified ALPPS (laparoscopic microwave ablation and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy, LAPS) and classical associating liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy (ALPPS) in the treatment of hepatitis B virus (HBV)-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Methods Clinical data of patients with HBV-related HCC who underwent LAPS or ALPPS surgery in our institute from April 2013 to October 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Results 31 patients with HBV-related HCC were retrospectively collected in this study (LAPS = 8, ALPPS = 23). 7 patients with LAPS and 19 patients with ALPPS proceeded to resection (resection rate: 87.5% vs. 82.6%, P > 0.05). The hypertrophy rate of future liver remnant (FLR) caused by ALPPS was higher than that of LAPS (24.3 vs. 11.7 mL/d, P = 0.024). Compared with the ALPPS, LAPS was associated with less blood loss (300ml vs. 40ml, P < 0.001) during stage 1, lower comprehensive complication index (CCI) after stage 1 (8.7 vs. 0, P = 0.023) and lower total CCI (20.9 vs 0, P = 0.018) for two stages. Two years’ recurrence-free survival rate and over survival rate for ALPPS and LAPS were 17.3%, 34.3% (P = 0.105), and 28.9%, 100.0% (P = 0.011) respectively. Conclusions Compared with ALPPS, LAPS can reduce the occurrence of complications in patients with HBV-related HCC and improve patients’ prognoses.

4578 Background: Both Portal Vein Embolization (PVE) and Associating Liver Partition and Portal vein ligation for Staged hepatectomy (ALPPS) have been used in patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) due to insufficient volumes in future liver remnant (FLR). But it remains unclear for which thetapy has better long-term overall survival. Methods: This study was a single-center, prospective randomized comparative study. Patients were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to the 2 groups. The primary endpoints was three-year overall survival rates. Results: Between November 2014 to June 2016, 76 patients with unresectable HCC due to inadequate volume of FLR were randomly assigned to ALPPS groups (n = 38) and PVE groups (n = 38). Thirty-seven patients (97.4%) in the ALPPS Group compared with 25 patients (65.8%) in the PVE Group were able to undergo staged hepatectomy (risk ratio 1.48, 95% CI 1.17-1.87, p < 0.001). The three-year overall survival (OS) rate of the ALPPS group (65.8%) (95% CI 50.7-80.9) was significantly better than the PVE Group (42.1%) (95% CI 26.4-57.8), (HR 0.50, 95% CI 0.26-0.98, two-sided p = 0.036). Major postoperative complications rates after the stage-2 hepatectomy were 54.1% in the ALPPS group and 20.0% in the PVE group ((risk ratio 2.70, 95% CI 1.17-6.25, p = 0.007). Conclusions: ALPPS resulted in significantly better long-term overall survival outcomes, at the expenses of a significantly higher perioperative morbidity rate compared with PVE in patients who had initially unresectable HCC.

Background. To explore the clinical characteristics of reactivation of hepatitis B virus (HBV) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE). The pathological correlation of prognosis and hepatitis B virus reactivation has been given detailed analyses in our research. Methods. A total of 108 related TACE-treated HCC clinical data from January 2008 to January 2016 was gleaned and involved in this retrospective analysis. To lucubrate the nuance of survival rates between HBV reactivated group and HBV nonreactivated group, clinical data of each patient was analyzed in detail and refined the retrospective studies. Results. HBV reactivation occurred in 42 patients with a proportion of 38.9%. The detected HBV DNA level ≥104 in patients showed a reactivation rate of 65.8% (25/38), which was significantly higher than the HBV DNA < 104 cases (24.3%, 17/70). Research data revealed a conspicuous lower cellular immunity ( P < 0.01 ) and better 2-year survival rate ( P = 0.03 ) in the HBV-reactivated group when compared to the nonreactivated group. Conclusion. Some of the patients with primary hepatocellular carcinoma possibly had HBV reactivation at post-TACE-therapy. And the predominant risk factors of HBV reactivation are positive HBV test and immunosuppression. Our study suggested that HBV reactivation at post-TACE-therapy is an independent predictor of poor prognosis and low survival rate as well as a crucial reason for poor prognosis and lower survival rate, which indirectly proved that it is urgent to necessitate the antiviral therapy and immune enhancer in improving the curative effect and prognosis of HCC patients.
