The Association Between Low Preoperative Phosphate Levels and Postliver Surgery Outcomes-A Single Center Experience.

Introduction: Previous research has demonstrated the impact of postoperative phosphate levels on liver regeneration and outcomes after liver resection surgeries, a potential predictor for regenerative success and liver failure. However, little is known about the association between low preoperative serum phosphate levels and outcomes in liver resections.

Methods: We performed a retrospective analysis of liver resections performed at our institution.
