Background: We reported that recovery from total intravenous anesthesia with propofol was delayed in hepatectomy patients, and the hazard ratio was half against controls. This study was designed to evaluate recovery from sevoflurane anesthesia in patients for hepatectomy.
Methods: Sixteen patients receiving hepatectomy and 17 patients receiving other epigastric surgeries (controls) were anesthetized with sevoflurane. Fentanyl was injected repeatedly to insure maintenance of the effect-site concentration of 2.0 ng x ml(-1). Propofol was administered for induction of general anesthesia, and then inhaled sevoflurane was titrated to maintain a Bispectral Index (BIS) value between 40 and 50. The intervals to emergence and extubation after sevoflurane discontinuation, and the predicted fentanyl concentrations were recorded.
Results: The amount of sevoflurane and concentration of fentanyl in hepatectomy were similar to those in controls. The extubation time was longer in hepatectomy patients than in control subjects, and the hazard ratio was half against controls.
Conclusions: Recovery from anesthesia with sevoflurane was delayed in hepatectomy, and the hazard ratios were half against controls. We speculate that the influence of hepatectomy caused delay of recovery from anesthesia in hepatectomy patients.

In Japan, the hinotori™ surgical robot system (Medicaroid Corporation, Kobe, Japan) was approved for gastrointestinal surgeries in October 2022. This report details our initial experience performing liver resection using the hinotori™ system. Ten patients, who were assessed as cases that would benefit from the robot-assisted procedure, underwent liver resections using the hinotori™ system at Fujita Health University, Okazaki Medical Center, between August 2023 and October 2024.

Colorectal cancer is the third most common malignancy, with around half of patients developing liver metastases. Hepatectomy is the preferred treatment, but its success depends on several factors, including surgical margins. Various surgical margins have been suggested to achieve optimal results.

Background: Postoperative complications are potential factors influencing the prognosis of patients with HCC combined with CSPH. This study aims to explore the risk factors affecting the occurrence of postoperative complications, investigate potential factors influencing long-term prognosis in these patients, and establish predictive models.
Methods: From April 2018 to December 2021, a total of 190 patients with HCC combined with CSPH who underwent curative liver resection in our hospital were included, comprising 69 cases in the complication group and 121 cases in the non-complication group.

Background: The Prognostic Nutritional Index (PNI), which reflects both nutritional and immune status, has emerged as a potential predictor of survival outcomes in cancer patients. However, its role in forecasting the prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) following curative hepatectomy remains unclear. To further investigate the association between PNI and survival outcomes in HCC patients, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) and cholangiocellular adenocarcinoma (CCA) are the most common primary liver tumors representing a major global health burden. In early disease stages, tumor resection may provide long-term survival in selected patients. However, morbidity and mortality rates are still relatively high after extended liver surgery with perioperative bacterial infections representing major complications.
