摘要
BACKGROUND: Liver revascularization is frequently required during the enlarged radical operation for hilar cholangio carcinoma involving the hepatic artery. Researchers have carried out a number of experiments applying partial porta vein arterialization (PVA) in clinical practice. In this study we aimed to establish a theoretical basis for clinical application o partial PVA and to investigate the effects of partial PVA on ra hilar bile duct and hepatic functions. METHODS: Thirty rats were randomly and equally assigned into 3 groups: control (group A), hepatic artery ligation+bile duct recanalization (group B), and partial PVA+bile duc recanalization (group C). Proliferation and apoptosis o rat hilar bile duct epithelial cells, arteriolar counts of the peribiliary plexus (PBP) of the bile duct wall, changes in serum biochemistry, and pathologic changes in the bile duc were assessed 1 month after operation. RESULTS: The proliferation of hilar bile duct epithelial cells in group B was greater than in groups A and C (P<0.01). No apoptotic hilar bile duct epithelial cells were detected in any of the groups. The PBP arteriolar counts of the hilar bile duc wall were similar in groups A and C (P>0.05), but the coun was lower in group B than in group A (P<0.01). No statistically significant differences in alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase and albumin were found in the 3 groups. The gamma-glutamyltransferase value was higher in group B than in groups A and C (P<0.01) The hepatic tissues of groups A and C showed no significan abnormality. Chronic inflammatory changes in the hilar bile duct walls were observed only in group B. CONCLUSION: Partial PVA can restore the arterial blood supply of the hilar bile duct and significantly extenuate the injury to hilar bile duct epithelial cells resulting from hepatic artery ligation.
