Abstract
BACKGROUND: Although surgical resection is associated with the best long-term outcomes for neuroendocrine liver metastases (NELM), the current indications for and outcomes of surgery for NELM from a population perspective are not well understood. AIM: To determine the current indications for and outcomes of liver resection (LR) for NELM using a population-based cohort. METHODS: A retrospective review of the 2014-2017 American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program and targeted hepatectomy databases was performed to identify patients who underwent LR for NELM. Perioperative characteristics and 30-d morbidity and mortality were analyzed. RESULTS: Among 669 patients who underwent LR for NELM, the median age was 60 (interquartile range: 51-67) and 51% were male. While the number of metastases resected ranged from 1 to 9, the most common (45%) number of tumors resected was one. The majority (68%) of patients had a largest tumor size of < 5 cm. Most patients underwent partial hepatectomy (71%) while fewer underwent a right or left hepatectomy or trisectionectomy. The majority of operations were open (82%) versus laparoscopic (17%) or robotic (1%). In addition, 30% of patients underwent intraoperative ablation while 45% had another concomitant operation including cholecystectomy (28.8%), bowel resection (20.2%), or partial pancreatectomy (3.4%). Overall 30-d morbidity and mortality was 29% and 1.3%, respectively. On multivariate analysis, American Society of Anesthesiologists class ≥ 3 [odds ratios (OR), OR = 2.089, 95% confidence intervals (CI): 1.197-3.645], open approach (OR = 1.867, 95%CI: 1.148-3.036), right hepatectomy (OR = 1.618, 95%CI: 1.014-2.582), and prolonged operative time of > 230 min (OR = 1.731, 95%CI: 1.168-2.565) were associated with higher 30-d morbidity while intraoperative ablation and concomitant procedures were not. CONCLUSION: LR for NELM was performed with relatively low postoperative morbidity and mortality. Concomitant procedures performed at the time of LR did not increase morbidity. ©The Author(s) 2020.
