BACKGROUND: Hepatic hydrothorax is associated with postoperative infectious complications and mortality in patients undergoing living-donor liver transplantation (LDLT). Thus, preoperative management of massive hepatic hydrothorax is essential for improving the outcomes of LDLT. This study aimed to demonstrate our successful cases and strategy for treating massive hepatic hydrothorax.
METHODS: Our strategy for hepatic hydrothorax includes (a) mini-thoracotomy under general anesthesia for the drainage of hydrothorax, (b) preoperative hepatic inflow modulation by proximal splenic arterial embolization, and (c) nutritional and physical intervention to improve the general condition.
RESULTS: Two patients with massive hepatic hydrothorax were treated with our strategy. Both patients had end-stage liver disease secondary to primary biliary cholangitis. Their performance status deteriorated due to massive hydrothorax. After the intervention, their performance status significantly improved. After that, LDLTs with right lobe grafts were performed. The duration of the operation was 440 and 343 minutes, with an intraoperative blood loss of 1,700 and 1,600 g, respectively. Their postoperative courses were uneventful, and they were discharged on postoperative days 16 and 14.
CONCLUSION: Our pre-LDLT multimodal management strategy for massive hepatic hydrothorax, including preoperative open thoracic drainage, pre-LDLT portal inflow modulation, and nutritional intervention, improved the preoperative condition of patients undergoing LDLT, resulting in successful outcomes.
