The liver is the commonest site of metastatic disease for patients with colorectal cancer, with
at least 25% developing colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) during the course of their …

Background Posthepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) contributes significantly to morbidity and
mortality after liver surgery. Standardized assessment of preoperative liver function is crucial …

Objective: To compare 2 techniques of remnant liver hypertrophy in candidates for extended
hepatectomy: radiological simultaneous portal vein embolization and hepatic vein …

Background The extent of liver resection for tumours is limited by the expected functional
reserve of the future liver remnant (FRL), so hypertrophy may be induced by portal vein …

Objective: Associating Liver Partition and Portal vein ligation for Staged hepatectomy
(ALPPS) has been tested in various indications and clinical scenarios, leading to steady …

Background We previously showed that embolization of portal inflow and hepatic vein (HV)
outflow (liver venous deprivation, LVD) promotes future liver remnant (FLR) volume (FLR-V) …

While imaging studies such as computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging allow
the volumetric assessment of the liver segments, only indirect information is provided …

Background: Most patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) have underlying liver
disease and a preoperative liver function evaluation is important to avoid postoperative liver …

Objective: The aim of this study was to use the concept of benchmarking to establish robust
and standardized outcome references after the procedure ALPPS (Associating Liver …

Background Regenerative liver surgery expands the limitations of technical resectability by
increasing the future liver remnant (FLR) volume before extended resections in order to …
