Post-hepatectomy liver failure

open access: goldInternational Journal of Surgery Case Reports, 2015
Post-hepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) is one of the most serious complications of liver resection and is associated with high morbidity and mortality rates.We report a case of PHLF involving clinical presentation of posthepatectomy-related 'small-for-size' syndrome (SFSS) secondary to obstructed venous outflow in the liver remnant, following extended ...

Viability assessment and transplantation of fatty liver grafts using end‐ischemic normothermic machine perfusion

open access: yesLiver Transplantation, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract End‐ischemic viability testing by normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) represents an effective strategy to recover liver grafts having initially been discarded for liver transplantation (LT). However, its results in the setting of significant (≥30%) macrovesicular steatosis (MaS) have not been specifically assessed.

Lipidomic signatures of post-hepatectomy liver failure using porcine hepatectomy models [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Translational Medicine, 2020
Clinical diagnosis of post-hepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) can only be made on or after the 5th postoperative day. Biomarker for early diagnosis is considered as a critical unmet need.Twenty domestic female crossbreed (Yorkshire-landrace and duroc) pigs underwent sham operation (n=6), 70% (n=7) and 90% (n=7) partial hepatectomy (PH).

Long-term survival after post-hepatectomy liver failure for colorectal liver metastases [PDF]

open access: yesHPB, 2019
While post-hepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) accurately predicts short-term mortality, its role in prognosticating long-term overall survival (OS) remains unclear.Patients who underwent hepatectomy for colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) after portal vein embolization during 1999-2015 were evaluated retrospectively.

Estradiol and testosterone levels in patients undergoing partial hepatectomy - A possible signal for hepatic regeneration? [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
In five adult male patients undergoing a 40-60% partial hepatectomy, serum sex hormone levels before and after hepatic resection were determined. Blood was drawn immediately prior to each surgical procedure and at specified time points postoperatively ...

Reappraisal of Plasmapheresis as a Supportive Measure in a Patient with Hepatic Failure after Major Hepatectomy

open access: yesCase Reports in Gastroenterology, 2007
Major resection of cirrhotic livers can result in hepatic failure, but no supportive treatment has been found to be generally effective. We successfully treated a 63-year-old woman with post-hepatectomy liver failure with plasmapheresis.

The clinical significance of the arterial ketone body ratio as an early indicator of graft viabilityin human liver transplantation [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
Arterial ketone body ratio (AKBR) was measured sequentially in 84 liver transplantations (OLTx). These transplantation procedures were classified into 3 groups with respect to graft survival and patient condition at the end of the first month (Group A ...

Clinical Investigation of Remnant Liver Volume-to-Body Weight Ratio in Predicting Post-hepatectomy Liver Failure in Patients with Hepatocellular Carcinoma in Cirrhotic Liver

open access: yesZhongliu Fangzhi Yanjiu, 2018
Objective To explore a new cut-off of remnant liver volume-to-body weight ratio (RLV-BWR) and investigate the relationship between RLV-BWR and post-hepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) of cirrhotic liver ...
