Secondary technical resectability of colorectal cancer liver metastases after chemotherapy with or without selective internal radiotherapy in the ran…
2019
Background: Secondary resection of initially unresectable colorectal cancer liver metastases (CRLM) can prolong survival. The added value of selective internal radiotherapy (SIRT) to downsize lesions for resection is not known. This study evaluated the change in technical resectability of CRLM with the addition of SIRT to FOLFOX-based chemotherapy. Methods: Baseline and follow-up hepatic imaging of patients who received modified FOLFOX (mFOLFOX6: fluorouracil, leucovorin, oxaliplatin) chemotherapy with or without bevacizumab (control arm) versus mFOLFOX6 (with or without bevacizumab) plus SIRT using yttrium-90 resin microspheres (SIRT arm) in the phase III SIRFLOX trial were reviewed by thr…
The impact of portal vein tumor thrombosis on survival in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma treated with different therapies: A cohort study.
2020
Background Portal vein tumor thrombosis (PVTT) is a frequent complication of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), which leads to classification as advanced stage disease (regardless of the degree of PVTT) according to the Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer Classification. For such patients, systemic therapy is the standard of care. However, in clinical reality, many patients with PVTT undergo different treatments, such as resection, transarterial chemoembolization (TACE), selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT), or best supportive care (BSC). Here we examined whether patients benefited from such alternative therapies, according to the extent of PVTT. Methods This analysis included therapy-naïve …
Combined hepatectomy and radiofrequency ablation for multifocal hepatocellular carcinoma: a case report
2009
Introduction: At the present time, the best possible choice for the local management of a multifocal hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) developing on liver cirrhosis is multimodal treatment of the disease. Combined approach based on simultaneous radiofrequency ablation (RFA) together with limited surgical resection represents a valid choice of treatment. Case presentation: A 75-year-old white female patient affected of HCV-associated cirrhosis in BChild-Pugh’s functional class A5, developed a bifocal HCC. The patient had undergone a limited surgical resection together with simultaneous RFA, without intraoperative and postoperative surgical complications. At 36 months after surgery, still shows …

Postoperatīvas aknu mazspējas prognostisko faktoru vērtēšana pēc aknu rezekcijām pie kolorektālā vēža metastāzēm
2016
Ievads. Kolorektālais vēzis ir agresīvs onkoloģisks process, pusei no pacientiem ar kolorektālo vēzi atklāj arī metastātisko slimību, un tā kā aknas ir pirmais orgāns uz metastāžu izplātīšanas ceļa, biežāk novēro kolorektālā vēža metastazēšanas aknās. Joprojām, aknu metastāžu ārstēšanas „zeltā” standarts ir aknu rezekcijas, pēc kā var attīstīties, tā saucama, postoperatīva aknu mazspēja, kas bieži asociējas ar postopertīvas aknu mazspējas prognostīskiem faktoriem. Pētījuma mērķis. Noteikt postoperatīvas aknu mazspējas prognostiskus faktorus, kam ir lielāka aknu mazspējas ietekme. Materiāli un metodes. Retrospektīvs pētījums tika veikts Latvijas Onkoloģijas centrā. Pētījuma tika iekļauti 88 …
