Article Synopsis
- Liver resection is a high-risk procedure, and predicting its morbidity and mortality rates using various models is crucial for patient safety.
- Research was conducted using multiple databases to find relevant studies, resulting in the inclusion of 34 papers published before August 2012.
- While several existing models like MELD and APACHE II can help predict outcomes after liver surgery, there is currently no effective scoring system for surgical complications due to a lack of validation.
