| Core Tip |
Insights into posthepatectomy liver regeneration in humans are limited. We quantified liver volumes using the latest volumetric software and investigated perioperative factors that affect posthepatectomy liver regeneration. It was revealed that liver regeneration continues after 3 months of hepatectomy with more than one-fourth of the liver resection and decline in preoperative liver function, reflected by the albumin-bilirubin (ALBI) score, is associated with decreased regeneration. Furthermore, restoring to the original volume depended on the combination of the preoperative ALBI score and liver resection percentage. With this knowledge, surgeons can select an appropriate hepatectomy type with rehepatectomy in mind after intrahepatic recurrence. |
