Abstract
Introduction

The aim of the study was to evaluate the relationship between the pre-surgical administration of a chemotherapy regime based on irinotecan or oxaliplatin and the development of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) or sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS), and the influence of these histological changes on the outcome of patients after surgical intervention.

Patients and method

A prospective study which included 45 patients surgically intervened due to colorectal cancer liver metastases between May 2005 and July 2009. Demographic data and the variables before during and after the operation were collected. A specimen of the resection was obtained for histological analysis following the classification parameters of the NAFLD (NASH index) and SOS scale.

Results

Neoadjuvant chemotherapy was given before the resection in 22 cases (study group) and 23 patients made up the control group (no chemotherapy). Borderline or diagnostic steatohepatitis was observed in 4 of the 7 patients (57.2%) who were given preoperative irinotecan (p=.001). Seven of the 15 patients (46.7%) treated with oxaliplatin developed a moderate or severe SOS (p=.002). There were no differences in morbidity or mortality associated to the NAFLD grade, but there was a higher rate of liver complications and longer mean hospital stay in patients with moderate/severe SOS (p=.004 y p=.021, respectively).

Conclusions

Treatment with irinotecan was significantly associated with an increase in the incidence of steatohepatitis, but did not increase the morbidity or mortality. Patients treated with oxaliplatin had a higher incidence of SOS, an increase in liver complications and a longer mean hospital stay.

Resumen
Introducción

El objetivo del estudio fue valorar la relación entre la administración preoperatoria de regímenes de quimioterapia basados en irinotecán u oxaliplatino con el desarrollo de enfermedad hepática grasa no alcohólica (EHGNA) o el síndrome de obstrucción sinusoidal (SOS) y la influencia de estas alteraciones histológicas sobre la evolución de los pacientes tras la intervención quirúrgica.

Pacientes y método

Estudio prospectivo en el que se incluyeron 45 pacientes sometidos a intervención quirúrgica por metástasis hepáticas de cáncer colorrectal entre mayo de 2005 y julio de 2009. Se recogieron variables demográficas, preoperatorias, de la intervención quirúrgica y de la evolución postoperatoria. Se obtuvo una muestra de la pieza de resección para su análisis histológico siguiendo los parámetros de clasificación de la EHGNA (índice NAS) y del SOS.

Resultados

En 22 casos se administró quimioterapia neoadyuvante previa a la resección (grupo de estudio) y 23 pacientes formaban parte del grupo control (no quimioterapia). En 4 de los 7 pacientes (57,2%) en los que se administró de forma preoperatoria irinotecán, se observó esteatohepatitis borderline o diagnóstica (p=0,001). Siete de los 15 pacientes tratados con oxaliplatino (46,7%) desarrollaron un SOS moderado o grave (p=0,002). No hubo diferencias en cuanto a la morbimortalidad en función del grado de EHGNA, pero sí hubo una mayor tasa de complicaciones hepáticas y mayor estancia media en los pacientes con SOS moderado/intenso (p=0,004 y p=0,021 respectivamente).

Conclusiones

La administración de irinotecán se relacionó de forma significativa con un aumento en la incidencia de esteatohepatitis, sin que esto aumentara la morbimortalidad. Los pacientes tratados con oxaliplatino tuvieron una mayor incidencia de SOS y existió un aumento de las complicaciones hepáticas y de la estancia media.
