Kyung-Suk Suh 교수의 연구실은 간암, 간이식, 기증자 간절단 등 복합적이고 고도화된 간성형외과학 분야에 집중하고 있습니다. 특히 외과적 치료 전략 개선을 위해 주로 생존율 향상, 합병증 관리, 이식 후 합병증의 메커니즘 규명을 목표로 연구를 진행하고 있습니다. 최근에는 내시경적 접근, PET 영상 진단의 활용, 그리고 합성 혈관을 활용한 이식 기술 혁신 등 정밀의료 기반의 간기증 및 이식 전략 개발에 주력하고 있습니다.

The clinicopathologic features of the intraductal growth (IG) type of peripheral cholangiocarcinoma (PCC) were examined retrospectively. Out of 112 patients who underwent surgery for PCC at Seoul National University Hospital, Seoul, Korea, between January 1980 and December 1997, 16 were classified as having the IG type. Thirteen were men and 3 were women. Their ages ranged from 38 to 73 years with a mean age of 55.9 years. Abdominal pain was the most common symptom and jaundice was found in 18.8
Positron emission tomography (PET) using F-18 fluoro-2-deoxy-d-glucose ((18)F-FDG) is now well established as a noninvasive diagnostic tool for the detection of a variety of malignant tumors. However, in the case of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), several investigators have reported controversial conclusions and an inadequate sensitivity for PET (50-55%). Nevertheless, a high positive rate of (18)F-FDG accumulation has been reported in patients with high-grade HCC and in those with markedly elev
A donor right hepatectomy (RH) is associated with a higher rate of morbidity than a left hepatectomy. Therefore, the precise morbidity should be known to improve the success of donor RH implementation. However, the rate of complication varies according to the individual definition of morbidity. This study prospectively analyzed the outcomes of 83 consecutive living donor RHs between January 2002 and July 2004 using a standardized classification of the severity of complications. The morbidity was
Congestion in the anterior section in a right liver (RL) without a middle hepatic vein (MHV) may lead to graft dysfunction. To solve this problem, an RL draining MHV branches with autologous or cryopreserved vessels can be introduced. However, these vessels are often unavailable, and their preparation is time-consuming. An expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) graft may be used for anterior section drainage. Between February and November 2005, 26 recipients underwent RL liver transplantation
Intrahepatic biliary stricture (IHBS) after liver transplantation (LT) may develop in patients with hepatic artery thrombosis, chronic rejection, or ABO incompatibility, as well as in patients with prolonged warm ischemia in non-heart-beating donor (NHBD) LT. However, the clinical course and methods of management have not been well defined for IHBSs to date. Thus, the purpose of this study was to provide a classification of post-LT IHBS and to investigate patient prognosis. Forty-four patients w
Pure laparoscopic donor right hepatectomy is both feasible and safe when performed at a center experienced in adult living donor liver transplantation. Performance of about 60 PLDRHs over 1 year is sufficient to standardize the procedure.
Liver transplantation is regarded as an effective treatment for early hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, some patients experience recurrence and subsequently rapid progression of the disease. We investigated prognostic factors affecting survival after recurrence in patients who underwent adult living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) for HCC. From October 1992 to December 2005, 138 adult patients underwent LDLT for HCC. Among these, 28 patients (20.3%) who suffered recurrence were retrosp
