New perspectives in the assessment of future remnant liver [PDF]
In order to achieve microscopic radical resection margins and thus better survival, surgical treatment of hepatic tumors has become more aggressive in the last decades, resulting in an increased rate of complex and extended liver resections ...

Current Modalities for the Assessment of Future Remnant Liver Function [PDF]
While imaging studies such as computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging allow the volumetric assessment of the liver segments, only indirect information is provided concerning the quality of the liver parenchyma and its actual functional capacity.

Future Liver remnant: A challenge in liver resection surgery
Introduction and Objective: The frontiers of liver resection are expanding. Future Liver Remnant; its volume, function and complication have a predictive value in post resection outcome including post resection liver failure.

In situ split plus portal vein ligation (ISLT) – a salvage procedure following inefficient portal vein embolization to gain adequate future liver remnant volume prior to extended liver resection [PDF]
Background Right extended liver resection is frequently required to achieve tumor-free margins. Portal venous embolization (PVE) of the prospective resected hepatic segments for conditioning segments II/III does not always induce adequate hypertrophy in ...

Influence of cholestasis on portal vein embolization-induced hypertrophy of the future liver remnant. [PDF]
PURPOSE: In the pre-clinical setting, hepatocellular bile salt accumulation impairs liver regeneration following partial hepatectomy. Here, we study the impact of cholestasis on portal vein embolization (PVE)-induced hypertrophy of the future liver ...

Impact of future remnant liver volume on post-hepatectomy regeneration in non-cirrhotic livers [PDF]
Objective: The purpose of the study is to detect if some parameters can be considered as predictors of liver regeneration in two different patient populations composed of in living donors for adult to adult living donor liver transplant and patients with

Hepatectomy based on future liver remnant plasma clearance rate of indocyanine green [PDF]
Background. Hepatectomy, an important treatment modality for liver malignancies, has high perioperative morbidity and mortality rates. Safe, comprehensive criteria for selecting patients for hepatectomy are needed. Since June 2011, we have used a cut-off

Management of future liver remnant: strategies to promote hepatic hypertrophy
The resectability of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has been assessed based on the liver functional test, the liver volume of the future liver remnant (FLR), and, more recently, the functional liver volume of FLR.
