The improvement in hepatic function due to sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors has been reported in T2DM patients with and without NAFLD. However, only a few studies have attempted to evaluate the role of SGLT2 inhibitors in T2DM patients with biopsy-proven NASH, and no detailed prospective studies including the individual hepatic fibrosis stage have been reported. Therefore, we investigated the effect of canagliflozin on hepatic function in T2DM patients with biopsy-confirmed NASH. Methods: T2DM patients with NASH (hepatic fibrosis stage 1–3 confirmed via liver biopsy, n=10) were enrolled and received canagliflozin (100 mg) once a day for 12 weeks. The primary end point was change in serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels from baseline to week 12. Secondary end points were liver function/fibrosis markers, metabolic parameters, and safety. Results: The change in ALT from baseline to week 12 was -23.9 U/L (95% CI –48.1 to 0.3, P=0.0526). Significant improvements in several hepatic function/fibrosis markers, such as aspartate aminotransferase, fibrosis-4 index, and FM-fibro index, and metabolic parameters including hemoglobin A1c and body weight were found. No serious or liver-related adverse events were reported. Regarding individual patients, different trends in ALT-lowering effects between stage 1 and stage 2/3 subjects were observed; the degree of ALT-lowering effect tended to be greater in the stage 1 group than in the stage 2/3 group. Conclusion: Our results suggest that canagliflozin is effective and well-tolerated in patients with T2DM and NASH. Canagliflozin may be useful for the treatment of T2DM patients with NASH, especially those in early stages of NASH.

Abstract

Background: There are many reports on the choice of treatment for and prognosis of left-sided obstructive colorectal cancer; however, few studies have focused on the prognostic factors of left-sided obstructive colorectal cancer. Therefore, we analyzed the prognostic factors using a post hoc analysis of a retrospective multicenter study in Japan. Methods: A total of 301 patients were enrolled in this study to investigate the prognostic factors for relapse-free survival. The relationships between sex, age, decompression for bridge to surgery, depth of invasion, lymph node metastasis, postoperative complications, adjuvant chemotherapy, carcinoembryonic antigen, carbohydrate antigen 19-9, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, and relapse-free survival were examined. Results: No change in the decompression method, T3 cancer, negative postoperative complications (grades 0–1 of Clavien-Dindo classification), and adjuvant chemotherapy during Stage III indicated a significantly better prognosis in a Cox univariate analysis. Lymph node metastasis was not selected as a prognostic factor. Excluding patients with <12 harvested lymph nodes (possible stage migration), lymph node metastasis was determined as a prognostic factor. In a Cox multivariate analysis, change in the decompression method, depth of invasion, lymph node metastasis (excluding N0 cases with <12 harvested lymph nodes), and adjuvant chemotherapy were prognostic factors. Conclusions: Similar to those in nonobstructive colorectal cancer, depth of invasion and lymph node metastasis were prognostic factors in left-sided obstructive colorectal cancer, and patients with <12 dissected lymph nodes experienced stage migration. Stage migration may result in disadvantages, such as not being able to receive adjuvant chemotherapy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Background/Aims: Expert technique and special anatomical or physiological knowledge are needed in the field of pancreatic surgery. The establishment of basic policies and operative techniques for pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) and stepwise training for young pancreatic surgeons are necessary. Methods: We scheduled PD for ampullar, biliary and pancreas carcinoma, and evaluated types of pancreatic anastomosis or results by each operator such as a chief, fellowship and resident doctors (>5 years after graduation). Results: Based on a questionnaire distributed to young residents (n=30), only half of them have experienced PD or PPPD, which was related to operating volume at the hospital. Post-operative complications at the teaching hospital were observed in 50 of 88 patients (56%). Post-operative complications were not significantly correlated with the type of anastomosis; however, duct-to-mucosa anastomosis of the pancreas might decrease pancreatic fistula (0% vs. 26% in pancreaticogastrostomy and 13% in pancreaticojejunostomy without duct-to-mucosa anastomosis). Based on the stepwise education protocol of technique, patient demographics, the surgical records and the post-operative complications were not significantly different between experienced teaching surgeons, fellowship surgeons and senior residents, although the time of operation and anastomosis tended to be longer in resident surgeons (p=0.22). Conclusion: Competent operative techniques for inexperienced surgeons and the achievement of safe resection at each stage are our educational goals for PD., Hepato-Gastroenterology, 57(102-103), pp.1046-1051; 2010

Abstract

Background/Aims: Pyridinoline cross-linked carboxyterminal telopeptide of type I collagen (1CTP) is a sensitive serum marker for metastatic bone carcinomas and may also be associated with invasiveness of various carcinomas. To clarify the significance of 1CTP in hepato-biliary pancreas malignancies, we examined the relationship between clinicopathological features and serum level of 1CTP. Methodology: The subjects were 75 patients who underwent surgical resections including 27 patients with liver carcinomas, 15 with extra-hepatic biliary carcinomas, 14 pancreatic carcinomas and 19 benign diseases. Results: 1CTP level tended to be higher in the malignant diseases than in benign diseases but this difference was not significant (p=0.065). Compared to benign adenoma, 1CTP level in the malignant diseases was significantly higher (p=0.049). 1CTP level tended to be higher in patients with cholangitis compared to those with no inflammation or benign tumors (p=0.065). 1CTP was not correlated with any tumor markers. 1CTP was not associated with node status and vascular infiltrations. 1CTP level tended to be lower in patients with poor differentiation. Conclusions: Serum level of 1CTP might be a predictive marker for hepatobiliary pancreas malignancies but also reflects the degree of co-existing cholangitis., Hepato-Gastroenterology, 57(101), pp.694-697; 2010

Abstract

To achieve complete resection of metastatic colonic carcinoma in the liver and lung, thoraco-laparotomy-assisted simultaneous resection was attempted in a 60-year-old male patient who had previously undergone sigmoidectomy for primary sigmoid colon carcinoma. A solitary liver metastasis was observed in segment 7 and a solitary lung metastasis was located in segment 6 of the right lower lung. Simultaneous resection was attempted and, in the left lateral position, a thoraco-laparotomy with oblique incision was made in the right seventh intercostal space. Both tumors could be palpated under a good operative view. A partial hepatectomy was performed followed by a segmental resection of the lung. A chest drainage tube was inserted for two postoperative days. The patient had no remarkable complications including pulmonary complication after surgery and was discharged at day 20 post-operation. For metastatic tumors simultaneously located in the right subphrenic part of the liver and the lower part of the right lung, thoraco-laparoscopy-assisted complete resection is a safe and useful option to achieve curative treatment., Hepato-Gastroenterology, 56(94-95), pp.1362-1365; 2009

Abstract

Background/Aims: To identify clinical significances of portal vein embolization (PVE) prior to major hepatectomy, we examined clinical parameters and outcome after right hepatectomy in patients who underwent PVE. Methodology: The subjects were 30 patients who underwent PVE (PVE group), and 52 patients (non-PVE), in whom PVE was considered unnecessary, followed by right hepatectomy for hepatobiliary cancer. Results: Total hepatic volume after PVE (1068±268 ml) tended to increase compared with before PVE (p=0.059). After PVE, the change in hemi-liver volume was 8.9±6.0%. Increases in hepatic volume of non-embolized left liver before and at 4 weeks after hepatectomy between the PVE and non-PVE groups were similar. Changes in hepatic volumes before and after PVE were not significantly influenced by background liver disease. After PVE, the functional liver volume (419±185cm 3) was significantly lower than morphological volume (564±165cm3) in the embolized liver (p, Hepato-Gastroenterology, 56(91-92), pp.773-777; 2009

Abstract

Many causes of biliary stricture are iatrogenic including postoperative complication such as a cholecystectomy. We examined the clinical demographics, surgical records and outcome in 7 patients undergoing biliary surgery between 1994 and 2006. Diseases included gall stone in 6 patients and neuroendocrine tumor of the pancreas head in one. Causes of biliary stricture included bile duct injury during cholecystectomy in 4 patients, and stenosis of hepaticojejunostomy in 3 (Repair of biliary injury in two and reconstruction after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) in one). Treatment modalities included surgical resection of stricture and reconstruction in 4 patients, extension by balloon catheter in one, and conservative treatment in two. Six patients have been cured and, however, one patient died of biliary cirrhosis and progressive hepatic failure at 4 years after PD. When improvement by the extension of stricture was not observed, surgical approach should be necessary. Complete resection of stricture and anastomosis between normal bile duct and intestine might be necessary. Indication of placement of metallic stent in stricture was thought to be carefully considered., Hepato-gastroenterology. 56(89), pp.43-46; 2009

Abstract

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Characteristics of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms of pancreas (IPMN) have been clarified by a worldwide survey and meeting. However, the malignant behavior or prognosis of the disease is not always uniform. METHODOLOGY: We examined the clinicopathologic demographics, surgical records and outcome according to degree of histologic malignancy in 18 IPMN patients between 1994 and 2006. RESULTS: Main duct type was observed in 3 patients, branch duct type in 6, and mixed type in 9. Eight of 18 patients (44.4%) had other malignancies, and other synchronous tumors were observed in the adenoma group. CA 19-9 was increased in invasive carcinomas. The size of the main pancreatic duct and cysts were not correlated with degree of malignancy. Mural nodules were more frequently observed in minimally invasive and invasive carcinomas. Segmental resection or observation was selected in the adenoma group; however, combined resection of main vessels was performed in invasive carcinoma groups. Although 3 of 5 patients with invasive carcinomas had a recurrence and poor patient prognosis, recurrence was not observed in other groups. CONCLUSIONS: Surgical results for IPMN were satisfactory; however, it is necessary to determine the operative indication before the carcinoma becomes invasive as such lesions have a poor prognosis., Hepato-gastroenterology, 55(88), pp.2238-2241; 2008

Abstract

BACKGROUND/AIMS: In the advanced stage of hepatobiliary malignancies, concurrent hepatopancreatoduodenectomy (HPD) is necessary to accomplish curative resection, even though high rates of morbidity and mortality still remain. METHODOLOGY: We examined the surgical records and outcome in 11 patients undergoing HPD. RESULTS: In 11 patients, diseases included bile duct carcinomas in 7 patients, gallbladder carcinomas in 3, and ampullar carcinoma in one. Hemi-hepatectomy with resection of the caudate lobe was performed in 8 patients and resection of segment 4 and 5 of the liver in two. Pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) was performed in 3 patients and pylorus-preserving PD in 8. Curative resection was accomplished in 8 patients. Two patients underwent adjuvant photodynamic therapy because of a cancer-positive margin. Morbidity rate was 36% but no hospital deaths were reported. The tumor recurrence rate was 73% and 8 patients died of cancer. Patient prognosis of gallbladder cancers (12 +/- 1 months) tended to be shorter than in patients with bile duct cancers (19 +/- 11 months) (p=0.15). Three patients with bile duct cancers survived without tumor relapse over 12 months. CONCLUSIONS: Complete surgical resection (R0) by HPD could be safely performed for diseases of the hepatobiliary malignancies, which achieved longer survival in some patients., Hepato-Gastroenterology, 55(86-87), pp.1691-1694; 2008

Abstract

Background/Aims: Measurement of urinary sulfated bile acid (USBA) level is a simple urine test that reflects the degree of cholestasis in newborns. The aim of this study was to clarify the clinical significances of this test for liver diseases in adults. Methodology: We examined the relationship between USBA level in a urine sample by enzymatic assay and clinical parameters and postoperative complications in 27 patients with hepatobiliary diseases who underwent surgical procedures between 2002 and 2007. Results: Mean USBA in all patients before surgery was 39.8 ± 64.0 μmol/L (median value was 6.6). USBA level was increased in patients with cholestasis. USBA level was significantly correlated with serum total bile acid, total bilirubin level and serum hyaluronic acid level (r=0.850, 0.602 and 0.504, respectively) (p, Hepato-Gastroenterology, 56(90), pp.299-302; 2009
