Portal vein embolization (prior to major hepatectomy) effects on regeneration, resectability, and outcome
Portal vein embolization (PVE) is used to increase the volume and function of the liver that will remain after extensive liver resection. Operative outcomes are improved in properly selected patients who undergo PVE and experience adequate future liver remnant (FLR) hypertrophy. Absolute volume and...

| الملخص: | Portal vein embolization (PVE) is used to increase the volume and function of the liver that will remain after extensive liver resection. Operative outcomes are improved in properly selected patients who undergo PVE and experience adequate future liver remnant (FLR) hypertrophy. Absolute volume and volume change of the FLR after PVE (interpreted in context of liver disease) predict adequate liver function postresection. Oncologic outcomes following resection in patients with appropriately applied PVE are excellent. J. Surg. Oncol. 2010;102:960–967. © 2010 Wiley-Liss, Inc. |
