This study on the use of RS for LPV reconstruction following hepatectomy shows promising outcomes in achieving better reperfusion and reducing complications in patients.
Background Immediate portal reperfusion is mandatory following hepatectomy combined with portal vein (PV) resection. This retrospective study analyzes the feasibility and the outcomes of the Rex shunt (RS) for reconstruction of the left portal vein (LPV) and reperfusion of the remnant left liver or lobe following hepatectomy for cancer combined with resection of the PV in adult patients. Methods From 2018 to 2021, an RS was used in the above setting to achieve R0 resection or when the standard LPV reconstruction failed or was deemed technically impossible. Results There were 6 male and 5 female patients (median age, 58 years) with perihilar cancer (5 cases) or miscellaneous cancers invading the PV (6 cases). A major hepatectomy was performed in 10/11 patients. The RS was indicated to achieve R0 resection or for technical reasons in 8 and 3 cases, respectively, and was feasible in all consecutive attempts with (10 cases) or without an interposed synthetic graft (1 case). Two fatal complications (PV thrombosis and pulmonary embolism) and three non-severe complications occurred in four patients within 90 days of surgery. Two patients died of tumor recurrence with a patent RS at 13 and 29 months, and 7 were recurrence free with a patent shunt with a follow-up of 1 to 37 months (median, 15 months). Conclusion In case of remnant left liver or lobe following hepatectomy combined with resection of the PV, the RS may help to achieve R0 resection and is a valuable option to perform technically satisfying portal reperfusion of the remnant left liver or lobe.
