Abstract

Background

Biliary confluence is sometimes involved in colorectal liver metastasis (CRLM), and therefore bile duct resection (BDR) is occasionally necessary for complete resection. However, the utility of hepatectomy with combined BDR is unclear. The safety and survival outcome of hepatectomy with combined BDR for CRLM was assessed.

Methods

Patients who underwent hepatectomy for CRLM between 2002 and 2017 were identified from a prospectively compiled database. Postoperative outcomes were compared between patients undergoing hepatectomy alone and with combined BDR for CRLM.

Results

A total of 734 patients who underwent hepatectomy for CRLM were included. Hepatectomy with combined BDR was performed in 16 (2.1%) patients. The postoperative complications rate (Clavien–Dindo ≥ 3) of patients undergoing hepatectomy with BDR was 31.2%, which was higher than that without BDR (P = 0.001) for CRLM. The mortality rate of surgery for CRLM was 0%. The 5- and 10-year relapse-free survival (RFS) rates for hepatectomy with BDR were 45.0% and 30.0%, respectively. Patients undergoing hepatectomy with BDR had a similar RFS to those without BDR for CRLM (P = 0.351). The 5- and 10-year overall survival (OS) rates for hepatectomy with BDR were 62.6% and 62.6%, respectively. Patients undergoing hepatectomy with BDR had a similar OS to those without BDR for CRLM (P = 0.738).

Conclusions

In conclusion, hepatectomy with combined BDR was a potentially feasible treatment option that obtained favorable survival outcomes in patients with invasion of the biliary confluence by CRLM, although BDR with hepatectomy for CRLM was associated with a high rate of morbidity.
