Methods The clinical data of 12 patients with ruptured PHCC treated by liver resection in Xiangya Hospital since 1970 were analyzed retrospectively. Results There were 10 males and 2 females with mean age of 42 (ranged 22–65) years in this series. Of the 12 patients, 11 underwent emergent hepatectomy and one 2-stage hepatectomy, including left segmental liver resection in 6 patients, left median lobectomy in 1, left hemihepatectomy in 1, partial right hepatectomy in 2, and tumor resection in 2. There was no operative death in 11 patients with liver function in grade A of Child-Paugh classification, but 1 patient with grade B liver function died of liver failure after operation. The operative mortality was 8.3%. In 11 survived patients, the postoperative median survival time was 16.5 months. The 1?, 3?, 5-year survival rate was 72.7%, 18.2%, 9.1% respectively; among them one patient has been alive free of the tumor for 25 years and 9 months. Conclusion Liver resection is the best treatment for ruptured PHCC when possible, which can result in long survival time.
