Reconstruction of the middle hepatic vein using a vein graft from the resected portion of the liver

Abstract: Background The middle hepatic veins are often infiltrated by intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. Reconstruction of the hepatic vein plays a critical role in preserving more of the residual liver volume and reducing the risk of postoperative liver failure in extreme hepatectomy. We here report a novel way to reconstruct middle hepatic vein by using vessel grafts from wasted liver. Case presentation Case 1: A 64-year-old man was diagnosed… Show more

“…Resection of 50% or more of the IVC usually mandates patching with either biological material (i.e., peritoneum or round ligament) or prosthetic replacement (18–20 mm ringed gore-tex graft) [ 104 , 105 , 106 ]. Hepatic veins can also be reconstructed either by venoplasty, graft interposition, or implantation in an IVC graft in order to ensure the adequate drainage of the future remnant [ 107 , 108 , 109 , 110 ]. Autologous venous grafts may even be harvested from the specimen itself.…”

“…Hepatic veins can be infiltrated by tumors located medially and in the posterior portion of the liver, as seen in intrahepatic CCA (29,30). In these cases, an approach of suprahepatic and/or infrahepatic IVC control as described above are also usually required.…”
