3D-FLM (First, Last, Max): A Novel Summative Measure of Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) Tumor Burden Predicts HCC Recurrence After Liver Transplantation (LT).
1Univ. Colorado, Aurora; 2UCSF, San Francisco.
Risk of recurrent HCC post-LT depends on tumor aggressiveness, pre-LT HCC burden and treatment response while waiting for LT. Standard measures of pre-LT HCC burden…2016 American Transplant Congress
Transplantation for Hepatocellularcarcinoma Is There a Tumor Size Limit?
Background:The advent of tumor size based criteria (Milan and UCSF) for transplantation of Hepatocellular carcinomas (HCC) has facilitated access of tumor patients to transplantation. Recent…2016 American Transplant Congress
Use of Autotransfusion During Liver Transplantation for Hepatocellular Carcinoma Does Not Increase Recurrence.
Baylor University Medical Center, Dallas, TX.
IntroductionAutotransfusion (AT) is rarely used in liver transplantation of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients due to the fear of disease transmission. Leukocyte depleting filters (LDF) can…2016 American Transplant Congress
Intraoperative Blood Loss Is a Promoter of Early Tumor Recurrence in Liver Transplant Patients with High Risk Hepatocellular Carcinoma.
Background:Currently, there is an increasing body of evidence that risk of early hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) relapse following liver transplantation (LT) may be promoted by mechanisms…2016 American Transplant Congress
Assessing the Role of Everolimus in Reducing Hepatocellular Carcinoma Recurrence After Living Donor Liver Transplantation for Patients within UCSF Criteria: Re-Inventing the Role of Mammalian Target of Rapamycine Inhibitors.
Organ Transplantation, China Medical University Hospital, Taichung, Taiwan.
The antineoplastic effects of everolimus(EVR) in adjuvant to its conventional immunosuppressive role in post-transplant setting can theoretically reduce the tumor recurrence in hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)patients undergoing…2016 American Transplant Congress
Occult Multifocal Hepatocellular Carcinoma in Surgical Patients.
Introduction: Resection of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is associated with high rates of intrahepatic recurrence. However, it is unclear whether recurrence results from occult multifocal disease…2016 American Transplant Congress
Comparative Analysis of Patients with Mixed Hepatocellular-Cholangiocarcinoma (HCC-CCA) Undergoing Liver Transplantation: A Single Center Matched Cohort Analysis.
Department of Surgery, David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA, Los Angeles, CA.
Liver transplant (LT) is the gold standard for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) but is contraindicated in known HCC-CCA due to poor prognosis. We compared posttransplant oncologic…2016 American Transplant Congress
Clinical Analysis of Patients with Hepatocellular Carcinoma Recurrence After Living-Donor Liver Transplantation.
Surgery, Seoul St. Mary's Hospital, Catholic University, Seoul, Korea.
Purpose: For living-donor liver transplantation (LDLT), there has been a tendency to accept extended criteria in comparison with deceased-donor liver transplantation (DDLT). However, HCC recurrence…2016 American Transplant Congress
Predictive Value of Preoperation Serum Gamma-Glutamyltranspeptidase for Hepatocellular Carcinoma Prognosis After Liver Transplantation.
Organ Transplant Center, The First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, Guangzhou, China.
Objectives: The aims of this study were to evaluate the prognostic value of preoperative serum gamma-glutamyltranspeptidase (γ-GGT) in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) underwent liver…2016 American Transplant Congress
Selection of Patients with Solitary Lesion of Hepatocellular Cancer for Liver Transplantation.
Milan criteria are considered as benchmark for selection of patients with hepatocellular cancer (HCC) for liver transplantation. The aim of this study was to evaluate…
