Management of post-hepatectomy complications
TL;DR: The safety profile of hepatectomy probably can be improved if the surgeons and medical staff involved have comprehensive knowledge of the expected complications and expertise in their management.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intraoperative indocyanine green fluorescent imaging for prevention of bile leakage after hepatic resection
TL;DR: ICG fluorescent cholangiography could detect insufficiently closed bile ducts that could not be identified by a standard bile leak test, and may have useful potential for prevention of bile leakage after hepatic resection.
Journal ArticleDOI
Surgical management of hepatolithiasis.
TL;DR: In the authors' opinion, and as is evident from the literature, surgery remains the definitive treatment for hepatolithiasis, however, non-surgical procedures such as cholangiography, although limited in their therapeutic capabilities, play a vital role in diagnosis and preoperative evaluation.

TL;DR: Blood loss, pancreatic duct diameter, and pancreatico-jejunostomy type were independent risk factors of PF after PD, and PF was related with higher mortality rate, longer hospital stay, and other complications.

Bile Leakage After Hepatic Resection
Yo-ichi Yamashita,Takayuki Hamatsu,Tatsuya Rikimaru,Shinji Tanaka,Ken Shirabe,Mitsuo Shimada,Keizo Sugimachi +6 more
TL;DR: Patients with bile leakage from the hepatic hilum and postoperative uncontrollable ascites tend to have a poor prognosis, especially when a high-risk surgical procedure is performed in patients with liver cirrhosis, and more careful surgical procedures and use of an intraoperative biles leakage test are recommended.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biliary Complications After Hepatic Resection Risk Factors, Management, and Outcome
TL;DR: Although nonoperative measures are the preferred approach for selected patients with biliary complications, those with demonstrable leakage from the common bile duct or its bifurcation have a grave prognosis and may benefit from early surgical intervention.

Risk Factors and Management of Bile Leakage after Hepatic Resection
Yasuhiko Nagano,Shinji Togo,Kuniya Tanaka,Hidenori Masui,Itaru Endo,Hitoshi Sekido,Kaoru Nagahori,Hiroshi Shimada +7 more
TL;DR: The aim of this study was to identify the perioperative risk factors for postoperative bile leakage after hepatic resection and to propose a treatment strategy for such leakage when it does occur, and to show that patients with involvement of the proximal bile duct were slower to heal than those with no demonstrable biles duct involvement.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors defined postoperative bile leakage as continuous drainage with a bilirubin concentration of 20 mg/dL or 1,500 mg/d lasting 2 days.

TL;DR: The most significant finding was the difference in the relative prevalence of hepatolithiasis as a proportion of all gallstone cases in Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Singapore, where the majority of the population consisted of patients of Chinese descent.
