TLDR
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.Abstract:
Because of recent advances in liver surgery, hepatic resections are being performed with increasing frequency, and the surgical death rate for such resections is decreasing. 1–7 Bile leakage, of course, is the primary complication occurring after liver surgery, and it can not only debase the quality of the postoperative course of patients, but also can lead to hospital death. Despite a significant decrease in the overall surgical complication rate in hepatic resections, the rate of bile leakage has not changed, with an incidence of 4.8% to 7.6% reported in recent large series. 2–8 The presence of bile, blood, and devitalized tissues in the dead space after hepatectomy may provide the ideal environment for bacterial growth and impair the normal host defense mechanisms. 9, 10 The combination of sudden reduction in the liver volume and development of an intraperitoneal septic complication after hepatectomy (IPSCH) frequently results in liver failure, leading to a grave prognosis. 11
The aims of this study were, therefore, to clarify the perioperative risk factors for postoperative bile leakage after hepatic resection, to evaluate the intraoperative bile leakage test as a preventive measure, and to propose a treatment strategy for postoperative bile leakage according to the outcome of these patients.read more

TL;DR: A uniform definition and severity grading of bile leakage is proposed to enable a standardized comparison of the results of different clinical trials and may facilitate an objective evaluation of diagnostic and therapeutic modalities in the field of hepatobiliary and pancreatic operative therapy.

TL;DR: Two-step hepatic resection performing surgical exploration, PVL, and ISS results in a marked and rapid hypertrophy of functional liver tissue and enables curative resection of marginally resectable liver tumors or metastases in patients that might otherwise be regarded as palliative.

Quality of complication reporting in the surgical literature.
TL;DR: Short-term surgical outcomes are routinely included in the data reported in the surgical literature and the lack of accepted principles of accrual, display, and analysis of complication data argue strongly for the creation and generalized use of standards for reporting this information.

Evaluation of 300 minimally invasive liver resections at a single institution: less is more.
TL;DR: The largest, most comprehensive, single center experience to date of minimally invasive liver resection (MILR), which suggests that MILR of varying magnitudes is safe and effective for both benign and malignant conditions.

TL;DR: This study investigated the effect of sarcopenia on short‐ and long‐term outcomes following partial hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and aimed to identify prognostic factors.

TL;DR: The multiple logistic model revealed that the risk of morbidity was increased by longer operation time, major hepatic resection, and preoperative cardiovascular disease.

TL;DR: The data justify extensive, aggressive surgery for HCCs in noncirrhotic liver and show the need for long-term follow-up to defect late recurrence, as surgery for recurrent disease prolongs survival.

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.

TL;DR: Surgical treatment of hepatic metastases from colorectal cancer is an effective procedure with acceptable mortality and morbidity rates, and an extensive experience of liver resection is, however, necessary to optimize results.
