Summary

Simultaneous laparoscopic splenectomy and hepatectomy (LSH) offers a safer, faster recovery for select hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients with hypersplenism compared to open surgery. LSH resulted in less pain, quicker recovery, and fewer complications.

Area of Science:

  • Hepatobiliary Surgery
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery
  • Surgical Oncology

Background:

  • Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with hypersplenism often requires combined splenectomy and hepatectomy.
  • Open splenectomy and hepatectomy (OSH) involves significant surgical trauma and prolonged recovery.
  • Minimally invasive surgical approaches are sought to reduce patient morbidity.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To compare the outcomes of simultaneous laparoscopic splenectomy and hepatectomy (LSH) versus OSH.
  • To evaluate the safety and efficacy of LSH for HCC patients with hypersplenism.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective analysis of 23 patients with cirrhosis, HCC, and hypersplenism.
  • Comparison of perioperative variables between LSH (n=12) and OSH (n=11) groups.
  • Data collected from January 2012 to December 2015.

Main Results:

  • LSH demonstrated successful outcomes in all patients.
  • LSH group showed significantly reduced postoperative pain, faster oral intake, flatus passage, and off-bed activity.
  • LSH resulted in shorter hospitalization, fewer febrile days, decreased complications, and improved liver/renal function postoperatively.
  • No significant differences in operation duration, blood loss, or transfusion volume between LSH and OSH.

Conclusions:

  • Simultaneous LSH is a safe and effective procedure for selected patients with HCC and hypersplenism.
  • Laparoscopic approach offers significant advantages in terms of recovery and postoperative outcomes compared to open surgery.
