Hepatic ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) was induced by clamping blood supply to the left lateral and median lobes of the liver for 90 min, and atraumatic clamp was removed for 4 h reperfusion. Blood samples and liver tissues were obtained at the end of reperfusion to assess serum and hepatic tissue homogenate aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), myeloperoxidase (MPO), serum interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), as well as activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and content of malondialdehyde (MDA) in the hepatic tissue homogenate. RESULTS: Hepatic I/R induced a significant increase in the serum levels of ALT, AST, TNF-α, IL-1β and MPO, as well as the levels of ALT, AST and MDA in the liver tissue homogenate, which were reduced bypretreatment with Wy14643 at the dose of 1, 5 and 10 mg/kg, respectively. The activity of SOD in the liver tissue homogenate was decreased after hepatic I/R, which was enhanced by Wy14643 pretreatment. In addition, serum and liver tissue homogenate ALT and AST in the Wy14643 10 mg/kg group were lower than in the Wy14643 1 mg/kg and 5 mg/kg groups, respectively.CONCLUSION: Wy14643 pretreatment exerts significant protection against hepatic I/R injury in rats. The protective effects are possibly associated with enhancement of anti-oxidant and inhibition inflammation response.展开更多

Methods: A retrospective study involving 113 patients with seve re hepatic trauma (AAST grade IV and V) during the past 12 years was carried out . Ninety eight patients underwent surgical treatment. Surgical interventions in cluding hepatectomy or direct control of bleeding vessels by finger fracture tec hnique with Pringle maneuver, selective ligation of hepatic artery, retrohepatic caval repair with total hepatic vascular occlusion, and perihepatic packing wer e mainly used. Results: In the 98 patients treated operatively, the survival r ate was 69.4 % (68/98). Among 40 patients with juxtahepatic venous injury (JH VI), 15 were cured with the maximum blood transfusion of 12 000 ml. Eight ca ses of Grade IV injury treated nonoperatively were cured. The percentage of fail ure of nonoperative management was 42.9 % (6/14). The overall mortality rate was 32.7 % (37/113), and 57% of the deaths were due to exsanguination. Conclusions: Reasonable surgical procedures based on classifica tion of hepatic injuries can increase the survival rate of severe liver trauma. Accurate perihepatic packing is effective in dealing with JHVI.展开更多

Now, there is a growing consensus that the most important step is diagnosis and depending upon the degree of severity, non-operative therapy is the main treatment method for hepatic trauma if conditions permit. For serious hepatic trauma patients such as those with hemodynamic instability, they should be operated upon as soon as possible. Regardless of the surgical options, doctors should control damage to patients and try to prevent complications. New therapies such as hepatic artery embolization and liver transplantation have been more and more used for the treatment of serious heoatic damage in clinics.展开更多
