| الملخص: | Objective(s): This study aimed to determine the effect of preoperative liver volumetry on postoperative outcomes after extended right hepatectomy. Primary end point was to evaluate whether future liver remnant (FLR)/standardized liver volume ratio (sFLR) >20% is sufficient for a safe hepatic resection. Secondary end point was to assess whether preoperative portal vein embolization (PVE) is associated with improved outcome in patients with initial sFLR ≤20%. Background Data: An sFLR >20% of the total liver volume has been proposed as sufficient for safe hepatic resection, but this concept has not been validated in a large series. In addition, recent reports suggest preoperative PVE is indicated for sFLR <30%. Methods: The impact of sFLR and PVE on short-term outcomes (postoperative complications, liver insufficiency, and 90-day mortality) was analyzed in 301 consecutive patients after extended right hepatectomy. Liver volumetry accounted for partial resection of segment IV. Liver insufficiency was defined as peak postoperative serum bilirubin >7 mg/dL. Predictors of liver insufficiency were identified by multivariate logistic regression. Results: Postoperative liver insufficiency occurred in 45 patients (15%) and accounted for 61% of deaths. Among 290 patients who underwent liver volumetry, sFLR was <20% in 38 patients, 20.1% to 30% in 144, and ≥30% in 108. Rates of postoperative liver insufficiency and death from liver failure were similar between patients with sFLR 20.1% to 30% and sFLR ≥30% but higher in patients with sFLR ≤20% (P < 0.05). Postoperative outcomes were similar between patients with increase in sFLR from ≤20% to >20% after PVE and patients with initial sFLR >20%. Multivariate analysis revealed that body mass index >25 kg/m2, intraoperative blood transfusion, and sFLR ≤20% (odds ratio = 3.18; 95% CI, 1.34–7.54) independently predicted postoperative liver insufficiency. Conclusions: Systematic measurement of FLR volume is important to select patients for PVE and extended right hepatectomy. A sFLR >20% is sufficient for safe hepatic resection and sFLR 20.1% to 30% is not an indication for preoperative PVE. |
