Varied application of intercostal trans-diaphragmatic ports for laparoscopic hepatectomy.
BackgroundThe ribcage and diaphragm are mechanical barriers for laparoscopic access during hepatectomy. Here, we introduce the varied application of intercostal trans-diaphragmatic ports during laparoscopic hepatectomy, and describe the management of ...

ROS/pH-Responsive Phenylboronic Acid-Chitosan Nanoparticles Improve Silymarin-Mediated Hepatoprotection After Hepatectomy With Gut-Liver Axis-Associated Responses. [PDF]
Bioactive phenylboronic acid–chitosan nanoparticles enable responsive silymarin delivery for post‐hepatectomy liver protection. The nanoplatform integrates antioxidant and antibacterial functions, improves hepatic recovery, and is associated with coordinated shifts in gut microbiota, metabolites, cytokines, and hepatic proteomic pathways, suggesting a ...

Association of Prophylactic Abdominal Drain Placement With Short-Term Postoperative Outcomes After Hepatectomy: A Nationwide Inpatient Database Study in Japan. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Aim Although randomized trials have discouraged routine prophylactic abdominal drainage after uncomplicated hepatectomy, these drains are still widely used in clinical practice. This study evaluated the association between prophylactic abdominal drain placement and short‐term outcomes after hepatic resection using a nationwide inpatient ...

Preoperative FIB-4 Index as a Potential Factor Associated With Severe Postoperative Complications and Endogenous Organ Failure After Hepatectomy for Hepatocellular Carcinoma. [PDF]
This study demonstrates that a preoperative FIB‐4 index ≥ 5.0 independently predicts severe complications and endogenous organ failure (EOF) following hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma. By capturing structural liver fragility and systemic vulnerability, the FIB‐4 index enhances surgical risk stratification beyond traditional functional markers ...
