All patients underwent various surgical therapies prior to resection which included gauze packing hemostasis in 1 case, hyper thermia plus radiotherapy in 1, hepatic arterial ligation in 2, operative hepatic arterial embolization in 3, and transcatheter embolization in 9. The median interval between the first therapy and tumour resection was 59 days with a range of 29--769 days, and the median diameter of tumours decreased from 10.5 cm to 7.5 cm.The majority of precedures on two-stage resection were irregular hepatectomy or lobectomy under occlusion of porta hepatis. Regular hepatectomies were done in 4 cases. Pathalogical examination showed complete coagulation necrosis in 3 specimens. However, in the others were still found residual viable tumours.Survival periods of the patients who received two-stage resection were from 4 mouths to 4 years except 2 operative death. The significance, possibility as well as methods of two-stage resection were discussed.展开更多
