Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Hepatic vascular exclusion is important for liver transplantation that can reduce blood loss and make for liver recovery. A variety of favorable hepatic vascular exclusion techniques occur in the development of liver surgery technology, which is still a research hot in surgical study.

OBJECTIVE: To introduce the latest research and the hot spot of hepatic vascular exclusion techniques.
METHODS:A computer-based online search of PubMed and Wanfang databases for articles relevant to Pringle maneuve, total hepatic vascular exclusion, selective hepatic vascular exclusion and sectional vascular exclusion under hepatectomy published from January 1999 to January 2014. Totally 50 articles were included in result analysis.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: There are a variety of hepatic vascular exclusion technologies, and intermittent hepatic vascular occlusion and semihepatic vascular exclusion are used most commonly. The applicable principles are as follows: (1) Surgery without vascular exclusion is suitable for < 5 cm lesions at the liver edge. (2) Semi-hepatic vascular exclusion is fit for semi-hepatic lesions, especially for patients accompanied by liver cirrhosis. Hepatic vascular exclusion with preservation of semi-hepatic artery and liver hanging maneuver are also reported to have a certain value in clinical practice still need further studies. (3) Intermittent hepatic vascular exclusion is suitable for lesions over half a liver or spanning liver halves (huge lesions). (4) Total hepatic vascular exclusion and its modified technologies are suitable for lesions involving the inferior vena cava and (or) hepatic vein, or lesions closely related to the second and third porta hepatis. (5) Segmental hepatic vascular exclusion is considered for smaller lesions confined to the liver segment under allowed conditions, but semi-hepatic vascular exclusion and Pringle maneuver can be also considered. Depending on patient’s conditions, to select the appropriate method is the key to reduce bleeding and to ensure patient safety.
