  1. 16. Liver Resection for Colorectal Cancer Metastases. Prognostic Factors and Interventions Affecting Outcome

    Författare :LIDEWIJ SPELT; Lund Kirurgi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; artificial neural networks; chemotherapy; colorectal cancer; liver metastasis; liver resection; portal vein embolisation; prognostic factors; survival analysis;

    Sammanfattning : Background: With a yearly incidence of 56 per 100,000 inhabitants, colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common malignancies in the Western world, representing the third leading cause of cancer-related mortality. Within three years after the diagnosis of CRC, 29% of patients will have developed liver metastases. LÄS MER

  3. 17. Resection of colorectal liver metastases - Impact of preoperative chemotherapy

    Författare :Sam Eriksson; Lund Kirurgi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Colorectal liver metastases; Preoperative chemotherapy; Liver resection; Hepatic microcirculation; Sarcopenia;

    Sammanfattning : Background Colorectal cancer is a leading cause of cancer related death worldwide. 20-30 % of patients will develop colorectal liver metastases (CRLMs). Surgical resection is the mainstay of treatment for CRLMs, and is often combined with perioperative chemotherapy, which can prolong progression-free survival after resection. LÄS MER

  4. 18. Acute Liver Injury and the Gut. Role of Nitric Oxide, and the Effect of Arginine and Probiotic Administration

    Sammanfattning : Infectious complications with enteric bacteria are common in liver diseases and liver surgery. An increased bacterial translocation from the gut has been proposed as one underlying mechanism. LÄS MER

  5. 19. Renal injury in liver transplantation clinical and mechanistic studies

    Författare :Åsa Norén; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Liver transplantation; Renal injury; Ischemia reperfusion injury;

    Sammanfattning : ABSTRACT Background: Renal injury in liver transplantation (LT) is common and presents both as early and late insufficiency. These conditions are interconnected and have substantial impact on the long-term outcome. LÄS MER

  7. 20. Liver transplantation in man. Gastrointestinal perfusion and inflammatory response

    Författare :Ebbe Rønholm; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; carbondioxide; complement activation; cytokines; endotoxaemia; hydrogen-ion concentration; liver transplantation; laser-Doppler flowmetry; PMN elastase; regional blood flow; reperfusion;

    Sammanfattning : Patients undergoing liver transplantation develop a systemic inflammatory response which eventually continues with development of a multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS). Gastro-intestinal hypoxia or bacterial translocation has been proposed as the "motor" of MODS. LÄS MER
