Release date: 2017-03-20

On March 16th, the reporter learned from Renji Hospital affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine that the liver transplantation team led by Xia Qiang, director of the Department of Liver Surgery of the hospital, successfully completed a left lateral lobectomy for a “mirror person” and cut it off. The left outer leaf successfully treated his biliary atresia daughter less than 1 year old and won a new birth for her daughter.

Mr. Liu from Huludao, Liaoning Province, is 38 years old and won a love girl last year. Unfortunately, her daughter was diagnosed with congenital biliary atresia shortly after birth. Congenital biliary atresia is a disease in which the intrahepatic and extrahepatic bile ducts are partially or completely blocked and cause cholestatic cirrhosis and eventually liver failure. Most patients will die within 1 year without surgery, and liver transplantation is the only way to cure the disease. After consultation, the family decided that the father of the child, that is, Mr. Liu, donated some of his liver to save the daughter.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Liu turned out to be a rare "mirror." According to Professor Xia Qiang, the so-called "mirror person", also known as "mirror person" or "mirror person", that is, the position of the heart, liver, spleen, stomach and other organs is opposite to normal people, such as the heart of a normal person, the spleen on the left The mirrored person is on the right side, while the normal person's liver, gallbladder, and tail are on the right side, and the mirror person is on the left side. Just like the mirror image of a normal organ, the incidence is about one in ten thousand.

Unlike normal surgery, doctors must “backhand” for surgery and avoid touching multiple “minefields”. Because the anatomical structure of the left and right livers is greatly different, it is extremely difficult and risk for Mr. Liu to perform liver excision in the left outer lobe. After a series of discussions and pre-operative preparations, the liver transplantation team led by Prof. Xia Qiang successfully cut the left outer lobe liver for the “mirror person” with the help of the anesthesiology department and the operating room. The operation took less than 2 hours. Intraoperative bleeding 50ml. Subsequently, Mr. Liu’s “mirror” liver was successfully transplanted to his daughter, completing the transfer of the father’s love. Mr. Liu was discharged from the hospital 3 days after surgery, and his daughter is now out of the risk of surgery, and liver function has returned to normal.

According to reports, since the implementation of the first child liver transplant in October 2006, the Renji Hospital Liver Transplant Team has completed more than 800 children's liver transplants, accounting for one-third of the total number of children's liver transplants nationwide. The number has been ranked first in the world since 2011, and the 1- and 5-year survival rates of children are ranked first in China.
