Tumors Of The Liver

Tumors in the liver arise from either the underlying hepatic parenchyma, resulting in benign or malignant lesions, or as metastatic deposit from extrahepatic malignancies. Treatment of these tumors is complex and requires a careful clinical evaluation. Recent improvement in diagnostic imaging techniques and reporting facilitates for appropriate characterization of hepatic tumors. In addition, utilization of genetics allows for careful classification of malignant potential in certain hepatic tumors. This chapter discusses several different types of hepatic tumors and examines the underlying etiologies, clinical presentation, diagnostic studies, staging, treatment, and prognosis. The staging of the malignant lesions is updated to reflect the American Joint Committee on Cancer’s eighth edition system. This review contains 7 figures, 4 tables and 82 references.

Aim. To analyze the safety and advantages of central resection in comparison with extended hepatectomies.   Methods. From June 2017 to May 2020 29 central and extended liver resections for children were performed. Central hepatic resections were carried out in 8, extended hepatectomies – in 21 patients. Preoperative investigations, intraoperative and postoperative data in both groups were analyzed.Results. The main indication for surgery was hepatoblastoma. Future liver remnant volume was significantly higher in central resections group (р = 0.003). No difference in median operative time (р = 0.94), intraoperative blood loss (р = 0.078) and blood transfusion rate (р = 0.057) were found between groups. There were no postoperative complications difference. Also no difference in hospital stay length (р = 0.3) were found.Conclusion. In comparison with extended procedures, central liver resection has similar complication rate. Central hepatectomy is a safe procedure in children with liver tumors, which allows to preserve more healthy parenchyma.
