Livers from controlled donation after circulatory death (DCD) donors suffer a higher incidence of nonfunction, poor function, and ischemic cholangiopathy. In situ normothermic regional perfusion (NRP) restores blood supply to the abdominal organs using an extracorporeal circulation for limited period before organ recovery. We undertook retrospective analysis evaluate whether NRP was associated with improved outcomes livers DCD donors. performed on 70 whom 43 were transplanted. These compared...
Most hepatic resections are currently performed using an open approach. Robotic surgery might enable the transition of these procedures to minimally invasive surgery.Pre-, peri- and post-operative data all patients who underwent a liver resection from 2009/2012 2001/2015, were collected prospectively. All robotic matched 1:1 surgery. Pre- perioperative data, up 30 days, analyzed.Sixteen identified. Fewer complication events shorter lengths stay (LOS, 7.9 versus 11 P = 0.0603) observed for...
