Impact of liver volume and liver function on posthepatectomy liver failure after portal vein embolization- A multivariable cohort analysis [PDF]
Background: Liver failure remains a life-threatening complication after liver resection, and is difficult to predict preoperatively. This retrospective cohort study evaluated different preoperative factors in regard to their impact on posthepatectomy ...

Preoperative Predictive Nomogram Based on Alanine Aminotransferase, Prothrombin Time Activity, and Remnant Liver Proportion (APART Score) to Predict Post-Hepatectomy Liver Failure after Major Hepatectomy [PDF]
Introduction: Post-hepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) is a serious complication associated with major hepatectomies. An accurate prediction of PHLF is necessary to determine the feasibility of major hepatectomy.

Prospective blinded study on INTRAOPEATIVE ICG retention test for major hepatectomy – A direct functional measurement of future liver remnant [PDF]
Background: PRE-hepatectomy ICG study estimate overall liver function but does not measure the function of future liver remnant. Objective: This prospective single-centre study aims to evaluate the safe limited of ICG retention at 15 minutes during ...

Case Report: Hepatic Artery Infusion Chemotherapy After Stage I ALPPS in a Patient With Huge HCC
Associating liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy (ALPPS) can induce rapid hypertrophy of the liver remnant. However, with a background of liver cirrhosis or other chronic liver diseases, patients with a huge hepatocellular ...
