In Brief Objective: To standardize the definition of postoperative liver failure (PLF) for prediction early mortality after hepatectomy. Summary Background Data: The PLF is not standardized, making comparison innovations in surgical techniques and timely use specific therapeutic interventions complex. Methods: Between 1998 2002, 775 elective resections, including 69% malignancies 60% major were included a prospective database. nontumorous was abnormal 43% with steatosis >30% 14%,...

Objective To explore the relation of patient age, status liver parenchyma, presence markers active hepatitis, and blood loss to subsequent death complications in patients undergoing a similar major hepatectomy for same disease using standardized technique. Summary Background Data Major resection carries high risk postoperative failure with chronic disease. However, this underlying may comprise wide range pathologic changes that have, past, not been well defined. Methods The nontumorous 55...

ABSTRACT Background: Pancreaticoduodenectomy is the usual surgical option for curative treatment of periampullary cancer and carries a significant mortality. Arterial anomalies celiac axis are not uncommon might lead to iatrogenic lesions or requiring arterial resection/reconstruction in pancreatoduodenectomy. Aim: Determine prevalence variations having implications Methods: Celiac trunk hepatic system anatomy was retrospectively evaluated 200 abdominal enhanced computed tomography studies....

Background : Liver metastases of colorectal cancer are frequent and potentially fatal event in the evolution patients with these tumors. Aim In this module, was contextualized clinical situations parameterized epidemiological data results various treatment modalities established. Method: Was realized deep discussion on detecting staging metastatic cancer, as well employment imaging methods evaluation response to instituted systemic therapy. Results The next step based definition which would...

The split-liver technique is an important means to alleviating donor shortage. Its development is, at least in part, hindered by the risk of biliary complications, particularly when splitting performed ex situ. We present a simple aimed improving identification anatomy hilar level and safety procedure.

Abstract Resection of the inferior vena cava may be required in courses oncological surgeries for tumors originating from or invading it. Management remaining defect depends on extension resection. Partial complete replacement cava, with a patch interposition graft, required. Standard techniques reconstruction prosthetic material autologous veins can associated graft infection, high cost, long‐standing anticoagulation, technical difficulties, and/or need extra incisions. The use peritoneum...

Portal vein resection and reconstruction in locally advanced pancreatic cancer represents a potentially curative treatment selected patients without increasing surgical mortality. However, vascular after segmental venous is challenging. The parietal peritoneum has emerged as substitute but few reports include its use tubular graft. We report retrospective series of portal using falciform ligament graft during pancreaticoduodenectomy.Technical aspects short-term morbidity mortality...

RACIONAL: A definição de insuficiência hepática pós-operatória não é ainda padronizada, dificultando a comparação inovações em procedimentos hepáticos e tornando complexo o uso intervenções terapêuticas pós-operatórias. OBJETIVO: Avaliar utilidade acurácia do critério diagnóstico pós hepatectomia utilizando tempo protrombina bilirrubina sérica como preditores da mortalidade. MÉTODOS: Foram estudadas 775 hepatectomias eletivas. O fígado não-tumoral foi anormal 43% dos casos: esteatose >30%...
