Preoperative Assessment and Optimization of the Future Liver Remnant

Surgical Clinics of North America, 2016
Liver resection of benign, primary, and metastatic tumors is challenging and places patients at risk for postoperative liver insufficiency. The magnitude of this risk largely depends on the volume and function of the future liver remnant (FLR). It is, therefore, critical that hepatobiliary surgeons are well versed in measurement of liver volume and ...

Comparison of Two Methods of Future Liver Remnant Volume Measurement

Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery, 2008
In liver transplantation, a minimum graft to patient body weight (BW) ratio is required for graft survival; in liver resection, total liver volume (TLV) calculated from body surface area (BSA) is used to determine the future liver remnant (FLR) volume needed for safe hepatic resection.

Automatic future remnant segmentation in liver resection planning

International Journal of Computer Assisted Radiology and Surgery
Liver resection is a complex procedure requiring precise removal of tumors while preserving viable tissue. This study proposes a novel approach for automated liver resection planning, using segmentations of the liver, vessels, and tumors from CT scans to predict the future liver remnant (FLR), aiming to improve pre-operative planning accuracy and ...

Postoperative Liver Dysfunction and Future Remnant Liver: Where Is the Limit?

World Journal of Surgery, 2007
AbstractBackgroundThe future remnant liver (FRL) limit for safe major hepatectomy with low risk of postoperative liver failure has not yet been well defined.MethodsBetween April 2000 and September 2004, every patient scheduled for major hepatectomy in our institution underwent CT‐volumetry of FRL.

Impact of the future liver remnant volume before major hepatectomy

European Journal of Surgical Oncology
Following major liver resection, posthepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) is associated with a high mortality rate. As there is no therapy for PHLF available, avoidance remains the main goal. A sufficient future liver remnant (FLR) is one of the most important factors to reduce the risk for PHLF; however, it is not known which patients benefit of ...
