Background: Operative mortality for high-grade liver injury (HGLI) remains 42% to 66%, with near-universal mortality after retrohepatic caval injury. The objective of this study was to evaluate mortality and complications of operative and nonoperative management (OM and NOM) of HGLI at our institution, characterized by a trauma surgery-liver surgery collaborative approach to trauma care.

Methods: This was an observational cohort study of adult patients (age ≥16) with HGLI (The American Association for Surgery of Trauma (AAST) grades IV and V) admitted to an urban level I trauma center from January 2010 to November 2021.

Article Synopsis
  • Primary liver cancer, mainly hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), is a major cause of cancer deaths, and tumor thrombus (TT) in major vessels worsens patient outcomes.
  • Four male HCC patients (average age 57) with TT in the inferior vena cava or right atrium underwent surgery to remove the tumors, followed by targeted and immunotherapy.
  • All cases show positive outcomes post-treatment, with some patients remaining disease-free for up to 74 months, suggesting that combining surgery with therapy could improve survival rates in advanced HCC patients.
