Preoperative Phenacetin Metabolism Test in the Prediction of Postoperative Liver Dysfunction of Patients with Hepatocellular Carcinoma
BACKGROUND The risk of postoperative liver dysfunction (PLD) in patients with injured livers, such as in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), is still not negligible. Phenacetin metabolism test can reflect hepatic functional reserve in patients with chronic hepatic damage. The aim of this study was to assess the ability of phenacetin metabolism test to predict PLD in patients with HCC receiving part...
متن کاملAssessment of Preoperative Liver Function in Patients with Hepatocellular Carcinoma – The Albumin-Indocyanine Green Evaluation (ALICE) Grade
BACKGROUND Most patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) have underlying liver disease, therefore, precise preoperative evaluation of the patient's liver function is essential for surgical decision making. METHODS We developed a grading system incorporating only two variables, namely, the serum albumin level and the indocyanine green retention rate at 15 minutes (ICG R15), to assess the p...
متن کاملPreoperative chemolipiodolization of the whole liver for hepatocellular carcinoma.
BACKGROUND Preoperative transarterial chemoembolization is not routinely recommended before hepatectomy for resectable hepatocellular carcinoma. This study evaluated the effect of preoperative whole-liver chemolipiodolization. PATIENTS AND METHODS A retrospective comparison of background characteristics, operative results and long-term outcome was performed between 36 patients with chemolipio...
متن کاملAssessment of preoperative exercise capacity in hepatocellular carcinoma patients with chronic liver injury undergoing hepatectomy
BACKGROUND Cardiopulmonary exercise testing measures oxygen uptake at increasing levels of work and predicts cardiopulmonary performance under conditions of stress, such as after abdominal surgery. Dynamic assessment of preoperative exercise capacity may be a useful predictor of postoperative prognosis. This study examined the relationship between preoperative exercise capacity and event-free s...
