Abstract:

Objective

To explore the effect of transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) after primary hepatectomy.

Methods

A total of five hundred and thirteen patients receiving primary hepatectomy from January 2006 to December 2015 in Wuzhou Red Cross Hospital were collected, among whom 343 were treated with TACE as the study group and the 170 patients not received TACE as the control group. The therapeutic effect of TACE was compared between the two groups, and the liver function before and after chemotherapy was observed.

Results

There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups of general data. The study group was followed up for 12 to 36 months with recurrence rate of 33.82% (116/343) and the control group was followed up for 12 to 32 months with 43.53% (74/170), the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (χ2=4.596, P=0.032). The survival rate of the study group was higher than the control group (66.76% vs 47.65%, χ2=17.371, P<0.01), and the survival time without tumor was longer than the control group [(20.27±5.49) months vs (13.34±5.06) months, t=13.806, P<0.001]. AST, ALT, TBIL and ALB, the liver function indexes level of the study group were significantly lower than those before treatment, and ALB in the control group were decreased (all P<0.05). Compared with the control group, AST, TBIL and ALB in the study group were lower than those in the control group, the differences were statistically significant (t=7.754, P<0.001; t=2.252, P=0.025; t=13.345, P<0.001). The complication rate was 46.94% in the study group while no similar complication in the control group.

Conclusion

For patients with primary liver cancer, undergoing TACE after resection can effectively improve the patient’s treatment and prognosis, but will further increase the liver function of patients with injury and the incidence of complications in patients, and calls for clinical attention.
