Impact of the preoperative skeletal muscle index on early remnant liver regeneration in living donors after liver transplantation

Korean Journal of Transplantation, 2022
Background : We investigated the correlation between the preoperative skeletal muscle index (SMI) and remnant liver regeneration after right hemihepatectomy for living-donor liver transplantation and aimed to identify preoperative predictors of greater ...

Portal Vein Embolization: Radiological Findings Predicting Future Liver Remnant Hypertrophy [PDF]

American Journal of Roentgenology, 2020
OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this article is to evaluate the radiologic findings predicting the future liver remnant hypertrophy ratio after portal vein embolization of the right branch. MATERIALS AND METHODS. The associations between the radiologic findings and the future liver remnant hypertrophy ratio for 79 patients who underwent portal vein ...

A Validation Study of Liver Volumetry Estimation by a Semiautomated Software in Patients Undergoing Hepatic Resections

Journal of Clinical Interventional Radiology ISVIR, 2020
Purpose The purpose of this study was to validate the use of a semiautomated software for liver volumetry preoperatively by comparing it with the volume of resected specimen in patients undergoing hepatic resections.

Bisegmentectomy and venous reconstruction after portal vein embolization for the remnant hemiliver in a patient with recurrent colorectal liver metastases

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, 2021
Repeat hepatectomy for recurrent colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) for the remnant hemiliver is sometimes challenging due to the insufficient future liver remnant (FLR) volume.

Current Modalities for the Assessment of Future Remnant Liver Function [PDF]

Visceral Medicine, 2017
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.

Can 3D imaging modeling recognize functional tissue and predict liver failure? A retrospective study based on 3D modelling of the major hepatectomies after hepatic modulation

BMC Surgery, 2023
Background Thanks to the introduction of radiomics, 3d reconstruction can be able to analyse tissues and recognise true hypertrophy from non-functioning tissue in patients treated with major hepatectomies with hepatic modulation.The aim of this study is ...

Combined simultaneous embolization of the portal vein and hepatic vein (double vein embolization) – a technical note about embolization sequence

CVIR Endovascular, 2021
Background Simultaneous portal vein embolization (PVE) and hepatic vein embolization (HVE) has been shown to be feasible, safe and lead to a faster growth of future liver remnant (FLR) than PVE alone. The objective of this study is to highlight different

The diagnostic value of 99m-Tc GSA scintigraphy for liver function and remnant liver volume in hepatic surgery: a retrospective observational cohort study in 27 patients

Patient Safety in Surgery, 2018
Background The aim was to analyze hepatic hypertrophy after portal vein embolization (PVE) and Associating Liver Partition with Portal vein ligation for Staged hepatectomy (ALPPS) to determine whether clinical circumstances associated with major hepatic ...

Comparison of nuclear imaging techniques and volumetric imaging for the prediction of postoperative mortality and liver failure in patients undergoing localized liver-directed treatments: a systematic review

EJNMMI Research, 2021
Background/aims Although volumetric imaging by computed tomography (CT) is the gold standard for preoperative assessment of the future liver remnant, nuclear imaging studies have shown promising data.

Dose finding study for unilobar radioembolization using holmium-166 microspheres to improve resectability in patients with HCC: the RALLY protocol

BMC Cancer, 2023
Background High dose unilobar radioembolization (also termed ‘radiation lobectomy’)—the transarterial unilobar infusion of radioactive microspheres as a means of controlling tumour growth while concomitantly inducing future liver remnant hypertrophy—has ...
