Determination and Optimization of Liver Function and Volume for Extended Hepatectomy

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceeding › Chapter › peer-review

Abstract

Post-hepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) is a major source of morbidity and mortality after major liver resections and appears to be related to the quality and volume of the future liver remnant (FLR). Assessment of liver quality and calculation of FLR using 3-D cross-sectional imaging modalities are essential before proceeding with any major live resection. Volume optimization strategies must be considered in all patients at high risk for PHLF. This chapter discusses the indications and details of the commonly used strategies of hepatic volume optimization. A proposed treatment algorithm is also included.
