Abstract:
Hepatic resection is the treatment of first choice for patients with primary or secondary hepatic tumours.Although liver resection techniques have improved considerably in the past 10 years,liver failure is still the most scared complication,particularly in patients with cirrhosis.In recent years,surgeons constantly attempt to overcome the limits of anatomy and the volume of tumor to increase resection rates.Therefore,accurate evaluation of the hepatic functional reserve is very important in the development of hepatobiliary surgery.
