About this study

Official title: Short-term Outcome of Ipsilateral Liver Lobe Devascularization of the Large Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Assessment of short-term outcomes of ipsilateral lobe arterial devascularization of the large hepatocellular carcinoma: single center non-randomized trial.

Read the detailed description

Assessment of the 30-day mortality and major complications as well as the tumor size changes of the patients undergoing ipsilateral lobe arterial devascularization of the large hepatocellular carcinoma. This is a prospective non randomized trial carried out at the Ribat University Hospital between April 2017 to March 2018.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • HALEDProcedure or surgery

    This is attained via a laparotomy involves isolation of the arterial blood supply of the tumor-containing liver lobe (the ipsilateral hepatic artery as well as the extrahepatic arterial collaterals) while preserving the feeding veins.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Short term mortality rate

    Percentage of patients' postoperative deaths

    Measured: 30 day

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Short term major complications' rate

    Incidence of Clavien/Dindo grade 3 or more postoperative complications

    Measured: 30 days

  2. Tumor response rate according to mRECIST criteria.

    Estimation of the residual percentage of viable tumor following the devascularization.

    Measured: 30 days
