| Core Tip |
A report of a 60-year-old male who underwent an extended right hepatectomy for metastatic colorectal adenocarcinoma. He subsequently developed post-hepatectomy liver failure secondary to a delayed diagnosis of alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency. Clinicians should be aware of, and test for, the possibility of undiagnosed alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency in patients with known chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or a family history, undergoing major liver resection. |
