Abstract:
Advances in hepatic surgical technique,perioperative care and improvements in patient selection criteria have increased the number of patients who could undergo major or extended hepatectomy with curative intent.Posthepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) is one of the most serious complications after liver resection.Different risk factors are related to the occurrence of PHLF,among surgery-related factors,massive bleeding and remnant liver volume were related to higher frequency of PHLF.The presence of diabetes and liver disease such as cirrhosis,cholestasis,steatosis had been involved with the occurrence of PHLF.So far there is no good method for the treatment of PHLF,so prevention is very important.
