106 liver resections have been performed at the Department of Surgery. 42 of these were liver segmentectomies and other minor liver resections. Such kinds of resective procedure have been adopted in 40 patients affected by benign or malignant lesions in whom the normal liver parenchyma had to be preserved. Indications and technical aspects of hepatic tissue preservation in liver resection are discussed. Liver segmentectomy required a transparenchymal approach, by means of finger fracture technique, through scissural planes to the deeply located segmental pedicle. It should be noted that blood loss and complication rate may be minimized when the technical procedure is carefully performed. A satisfactory survival rate in patients with hepatic involvement from colonic cancer is reported.

Machine learning models for predicting postoperative peritoneal metastasis after hepatocellular carcinoma rupture: a multicenter cohort study in China.
Oncologist
January 2025
Department of Hepatic Surgery, Tongji Hospital, Tongji Medical College of Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Wuhan, Hubei, People's Republic of China.
Background: Peritoneal metastasis (PM) after the rupture of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a critical issue that negatively affects patient prognosis. Machine learning models have shown great potential in predicting clinical outcomes; however, the optimal model for this specific problem remains unclear.
Methods: Clinical data were collected and analyzed from 522 patients with ruptured HCC who underwent surgery at 7 different medical centers.
Feasibility of Pure Laparoscopic Donor Right Hepatectomy Compared to Open Donor Right Hepatectomy: A Large Single-Center Cohort Study.

Division of Liver Transplantation and Hepatobiliary Surgery, Department of Surgery, Asan Medical Center, University of Ulsan College of Medicine, Seoul, Korea.
Objective: This study aimed to compare morbidity of living donors and recipients after pure laparoscopic donor right hepatectomy (PLDRH) and open donor right hepatectomy (ODRH).
Background: Donor and recipient morbidity have not been sufficiently reported in large-scale comparisons of PLDRH and ODRH.
Methods: This retrospective study reviewed 3348 donors who underwent PLDRH (n=329) and ODRH (n=3019) and their corresponding recipients (n=3348) between January 2014 and August 2023.
Prognostic significance of the hemoglobin, albumin, lymphocyte, platelet (HALP) score after hepatectomy for colorectal liver metastases.

Division of Hepatobiliary and Pancreas Surgery, Department of Surgery, The Jikei University School of Medicine, 3-25-8, Nishi-Shinbashi, Minato-Ku, Tokyo, 105-8461, Japan.
Purpose: Inflammatory, nutritional, and immune biomarkers are associated with the prognosis of patients with various tumors. Recently, a comprehensive predictive biomarker, the hemoglobin, albumin, lymphocyte, and platelet (HALP) score, was introduced to predict clinical outcomes. We investigated the prognostic impact of preoperative HALP scores in patients who underwent hepatectomy for colorectal liver metastasis (CRLM).
View Article and Find Full Text PDFIntroduction: The present study aimed to determine the clinical value of serum procalcitonin (PCT) level in predicting postoperative infections after hepatectomy.
Methods: Medical records of 301 consecutive patients who underwent hepatectomy were retrospectively reviewed. We divided the patients into infection-positive and infection-negative groups.

Background: Patients with liver cancer usually experience postoperative complications and reduced perioperative functional capacity. This study aimed to assess the effect of a short-term, exercise-based prehabilitation program on postoperative clinical outcomes and perioperative functional capacity in patients with liver cancer undergoing hepatectomy.
Methods: This single-center, prospective, open-labeled randomized controlled trial was conducted with 205 patients.
