Q

Goode, JVIM, 2019:
Blood flow in hepatic tumors
What vessel does the majority of the tumor blood supply arise from?

A

Goode, JVIM, 2019:
The majority of the tumor blood supply arises from the hepatic artery and not the portal vein - there were significant decreases in portal blood flow in areas of tumor growth compared to normal hepatic parenchyma

Q

What did Hanson et al JAVMA 2017 conclude about blood transfusion requirements for dogs and cats following liver lobectomy?

A

17% of dogs and 44% of cats required transfusion 8% over all mortality rate - higher in dogs receiving transfusion

19
Q

Lamb et al JSAP 2018 What is the most accurate CT finding to determine the origin of a hepatic mass?

A

Identification of hepatic lobar veins or portal branches - can be used to distinguish right, central or left divisional masses with 93% accuracy

20
Q

Lamb et a JSAP 2018 recommended what CT finding guidelines for determining the origin of hepatic masses?

A
  1. entirely to the left of midline = left divisional mass 2. medial, lateral or dorsal to portal vein = right division 3. dorsal displacement of stomach ~ usually left divisional 4. left displacement of stomach ~ usually right divisional 5. Hepatic lobar veins or portal branches can be used to distinguish right, central or left divisional masses **most accurate
21
Q

Linden et al VetSurg 2019 How did surgical methods influence outcome for dogs with central division hepatic lobectomies?

A
  1. Hilar resection - increased risks of intra-op and short term PO complications. 2. TA stapler = decreased risks of long term PO complications 3. Right medial lobe removal = increased risk of intra-op complications vs quadrate lobe
