Application of middle hepatic vein splitting and reconstruction technique in split liver transplantation from low-age donor livers

  • 摘要:
    目的  探讨肝中静脉劈分-重建技术在低龄儿童来源供肝劈离式肝移植中的可行性及临床经验。
    方法  回顾性分析2017年1月至2023年7月间中山大学附属第三医院肝移植中心实施的2例低龄儿童来源供肝行肝中静脉劈分-重建后为4例儿童受者行劈离式肝移植的病例资料,总结分析手术情况和术后情况。
    结果  供者1为6岁4个月女童,体质量为21 kg,获取供肝质量为496 g,劈离后左、右半肝质量为201 g和280 g,分别移植给9个月龄6.5 kg男童和9个月龄7.5 kg男童,移植物与受者质量比(GRWR)分别为3.09%和3.73%。供者2为5岁8个月男童,体质量为19 kg,供肝质量为673 g,劈离后左、右半肝质量为230 g和400 g,分别移植给13个月龄9.5 kg女童、15个月龄12 kg男童,GRWR分别为2.42%和3.33%。两例供肝均采用离体劈离方式,肝中静脉正中完全劈分,并利用异体髂静脉和髂动脉血管补片重建,根据GRWR 4例移植肝均无减体积。4例受者中1例因术后门静脉血栓形成、移植肝无功能死亡,3例术后恢复顺利未出现早期和晚期并发症,规律随访至2023年7月31日,肝功能恢复良好。
    结论  在对供肝进行细致评估及术中精细操作、匹配合适儿童受者的前提下,可选择合适的低龄儿童供肝进行劈离。采用肝中静脉正中完全劈分-重建的方式,可有效保证左右半肝的静脉充分回流,保证了足够功能性肝体积。

     

    Abstract:
    Objective  To explore the feasibility and clinical experience of the middle hepatic vein splitting-reconstruction technique in split liver transplantation from low-age donor livers.
    Methods  A retrospective analysis was conducted on the cases of two low-age donor livers that underwent middle hepatic vein splitting-reconstruction, which were transplanted into four child recipients at the Liver Transplantation Center of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from January 2017 to July 2023. The surgical and postoperative conditions were summarized and analyzed.
    Results  Donor 1 was a 6-year-old and 4-month-old girl with a body weight of 21 kg, and the obtained donor liver weighed 496 g. After splitting, the left and right liver weights were 201 g and 280 g, and transplanted into a 9-month-old boy weighing 6.5 kg and a 9-month-old boy weighing 7.5 kg, respectively. The graft to recipient weight ratio (GRWR) was 3.09% and 3.73%, respectively. Donor 2 was a 5-year-old and 8-month-old boy with a body weight of 19 kg, and the donor liver weighed 673 g. After splitting, the left and right liver weights were 230 g and 400 g, and transplanted into a 13-month-old girl weighing 9.5 kg and a 15-month-old boy weighing 12 kg. The GRWR was 2.42% and 3.33%, respectively. Both donor livers were split ex vivo, with the middle hepatic vein being completely split in the middle and reconstructed using allogeneic iliac vein and iliac artery vascular patches. According to GRWR, none of the 4 transplant livers were reduced in volume. Among the 4 recipients, one died due to postoperative portal vein thrombosis and non-function of the transplant liver, while the other three cases recovered smoothly without early or late complications. Regular follow-up was conducted until July 31, 2023, and liver function recovered well.
    Conclusions  Under the premise of detailed assessment of the donor liver and meticulous intraoperative operation, as well as matching with suitable child recipients, low-age donor livers may be selected for splitting. The complete splitting and reconstruction of the middle hepatic vein in the middle may effectively ensure the adequate venous return of the left and right liver and provide sufficient functional liver volume.
