METHODS:BMSCs from male BALB/c mice were harvested and cultured, then transplanted into female syngenic BALB/ c mice via portal vein. Hepato-carcinogenesis was induced by 6 mo of treatment with diethylnitrosamine (DEN). Six months later, the liver was removed from each treated mouse and evaluated by immunohistochemistry and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). RESULTS:Twenty-six percent of recipient mice survived and developed multiple hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs). Immunohistochemically, HCC expressed placental form of glutathione-S-transferase (GST-P) and α-fetoprotein, but did not express cytokeratin 19. Y chromosome positive hepatocytes were detected by fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) in the liver of mice treated with DEN after BMSCs transplantation while no such hepatocytes were identified in the liver of mice not treated with DEN. No HCC was positive for the Y chromosome by FISH. CONCLUSION:Hepatic stem cells derived from the bone marrow stromal cells have a low malignant potential in our mouse model of chemical hepatocarcingenesis.展开更多

And laparoscopy is currently used to cure this disease now. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 34 cases of total laparoscopic choledochal cyst excision between January 2007 and August 2011. All patients underwent in vitro Roux-en-Y hepatoenterostomy. Results All 34 patients underwent successful total laparoscopic choledochal cyst excision. The operation time was 200-360 minutes. The duration of hospital stay was 3-7 days. Follow-up observations lasted 1-56 months. One patient developed an anastomotic stoma stricture, but no other cases had postoperative complications. No patients died. Conclusion Total laparoscopic choledochal cyst excision is safe and feasible.展开更多
