Known risk factors for hepatocellular adenoma (HCA) bleeding are size >5 cm, growth rate, visible vascularity, exophytic lesions, β-catenin and Sonic Hedgehog activated HCAs. Most studies based on European cohorts. The objective of this study is to identify additional HCA in a US cohort.Retrospective chart review was performed patients diagnosed with magnetic resonance imaging (n = 184) at an academic tertiary institution. Clinical, pathological, data were collected. Primary outcomes...
Hepatocellular carcinoma is the most common primary hepatic malignancy. For patients not amenable to surgical treatment, transarterial chemoembolization a viable therapeutic alternative. Extrahepatic collateral arterial supply tumor may occur in variety of scenarios and timely detection this phenomenon fundamental importance achieve optimal outcomes response treatment. This report presents case hepatocellular that was supplied mainly by parasitized right phrenic artery only successfully...
Background. Standard maintenance immunosuppression after intestinal transplantation (ITx) currently consists of tacrolimus-based regimens. We previous reported that adding sirolimus significantly reduces rejection rates and graft loss. now present our decade-long experience with in ITx. Patients. 160 patients (87M 73F, n=80 adults (median age 42 y [18-66], children 1.6 [6 mo-17.5 y] undergoing primary ITx (87 isolated small intestine, 44 liver-intestine, 24 multivisceral 5 modified MV)...
Aim There is no consensus on the optimal preservation solution in DCD liver transplantation (LTx), especially regarding risk of ischemic-type biliary lesions (ITBL). Both UW and HTK solutions have been successfully used. We reviewed our experience with both LTx. Methods performed 35 adult primary LTx between 1/2008-10/2013. was used 24(69%) grafts (group A) 11(31%, group B), depending procuring OPO protocol. Donor age, BMI, ethnicity, warm ischemia time macrosteatosis (gr. A biopsies n=14,...
