Hepatectomy

06/01/2015 - "Hepatectomy is the most effective treatment for patients with colorectal liver metastasis (CRLM). "
11/01/2011 - "If the liver metastases were the most threatening factor of life, HDHAI and repeated hepatectomy maybe effective for prolongation of life."
03/01/2003 - "Repeat hepatectomy is the most effective treatment for recurrent colorectal liver metastases. "
09/01/2009 - "Of the eight patients with a complete response, seven developed liver and/or lung metastases, and of these, one patient undergoing additional hepatectomy has been disease-free and the other six receiving chemotherapy died of disease. "
08/01/2003 - "In patients with bilateral multiple colorectal liver metastases, neoadjuvant chemotherapy before hepatectomy was associated with improved survival and enabled complete resection with fewer extended hepatectomies."

08/01/2014 - "For patients with resectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), hepatectomy remains one of the best treatment options to provide long-term survival. "
12/01/2008 - "Hepatectomy is now considered as the most effective treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). "
01/01/2002 - "Surgery for hepatocellular carcinoma has improved dramatically during the last two decades, and the improvement is mainly attributable to the development of intraoperative ultrasound-guided operative procedures such as Makuuchi's segmentectomy, introduction of the intermittent vascular occlusion technique, and establishment of the precise criteria for indications of various hepatectomy procedures. "
01/01/2001 - "Repeat hepatectomy is the most useful treatment for recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma."
11/01/2012 - "[A case of bilobar multiple hepatocellular carcinoma in which complete remission was achieved by preoperative percutaneous isolated hepatic perfusion and subsequent hepatectomy]."

08/01/2015 - "It has been speculated that, when right-sided major hepatectomy (RSMH) is planned for patients with large tumors in the right liver, it may not lead to a marked decrease in normally functional hepatic mass. "
05/21/2013 - "Pre-operative arterial embolization is effective for reducing tumor size, but a close follow-up to decide the time for hepatectomy is important."
11/01/2008 - "PRFA is an effective and safe treatment for RHCC, and tumor size and recurrent interval after hepatectomy are important prognostic factors. "
06/14/2014 - "There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups with respect to patient background characteristics, background liver condition, or tumor factors; on the other hand, the two groups showed statistically significant differences in patients without a history of hepatectomy (P = 0.009) and those that received multiple stenting (P = 0.036). "
01/01/2012 - " In conclusion, despite the overwhelmed effects of primary tumor in the early stage after hepatectomy, postoperative TACE is beneficial for HCC patients with poor liver status."

09/01/1997 - "The present review revealed that hepatic resection is the best treatment modality, although the overall survival rate after hepatectomy for metastatic colorectal cancer is still low (20-40%). "
01/15/2011 - "Improved survival rates after hepatectomy for metastatic colorectal cancer have been reported in the last few years and these may be the result of a variety of factors, such as advances in systemic chemotherapy, radiographic imaging techniques that permit more accurate determination of the extent and location of the metastatic burden, local ablation methods, and in surgical techniques of hepatic resection. "
11/01/2003 - "In appropriately selected patients with colorectal cancer, surgical excision of localized recurrences after hepatectomy may be effective in prolonging survival."
03/01/1994 - "We concluded that for selected cases of metastatic hepatic malignancy, especially from colorectal cancer, hepatectomy is a promising treatment of choice."
02/15/2007 - "Although hepatectomy rates among patients with colorectal cancer were low, hepatic resection was associated with improved survival."

08/01/2010 - "Partial hepatectomy remains the best treatment option for select patients with HCC without cirrhosis. "
01/01/2005 - "For patients with cirrhosis undergoing major hepatectomy, computed tomography volumetry and laparoscopy are helpful in evaluating whether the remnant liver volume is adequate. "
07/01/2003 - "Continuous and intermittent clamping are both effective in reducing blood loss during hepatectomy in cirrhosis. "
11/01/2003 - "Splenectomy combined with hepatectomy for HCC associated with cirrhosis is helpful for the recovery of T-lymphocyte subsets and the maintenance of Th1/Th2 cytokine balance."
06/01/2015 - "The purpose of this study was to investigate scientific advantages and safety of pure laparoscopic hepatectomy in patients with severe damaged liver and cirrhosis. "
