Establishing the clinical relevance of grade A post-hepatectomy liver failure. [PDF]
J Surg OncolThe International Study Group of Liver Surgery's criteria stratifies postâhepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) into grades A, B, and C. The clinical significance of these grades has not been fully established.

Hypophosphatemia as a prognostic tool for post-hepatectomy liver failure: A systematic review. [PDF]
World J Gastrointest Surg, 2023 BACKGROUND Post-hepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) is one of the main causes of postoperative mortality and is challenging to predict early in patients after liver resection.

Hepatobiliary Surg Nutrdynamic liver function test. The ability of ICG clearance reflects how the liver can remove substances from the bloodstream. A potential risk factor for PHLF is impaired liver function that can be demonstrated by lower ICG clearance.

HMGB1-Mediated Cell Death-A Crucial Element in Post-Hepatectomy Liver Failure. [PDF]
Int J Mol SciLiver resection (LR) is the primary treatment for hepatic tumors, yet posthepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) remains a significant concern. While the precise etiology of PHLF remains elusive, dysregulated inflammatory processes are pivotal.

Early postoperative serum aspartate aminotransferase for prediction of post-hepatectomy liver failure [PDF]
Perioperative Medicine, 2022 Background Post-hepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) is a serious complication of hepatectomy. The current criteria for PHLF diagnosis (ISGLS consensus) require laboratory data on or after postoperative day (POD) 5, which may delay treatment for patients at ...
