Estimation of the future remnant liver function is a better tool to predict post-hepatectomy liver failure than platelet-based liver scores

European Journal of Surgical Oncology Sep 09, 2017

Chapelle T, et al. - This study was planned to test the hypothesis that a Hepatobiliary Scintigraphy (HBSBSA) based formula was a better predictor for post-hepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) than platelet-based liver scores (PBLS) in chemotherapy-pretreated colorectal liver metastases (CRLM). Findings suggested that estimation of the future liver remnant function (eFLRF) by combining 99mTc-Mebrofenin HBSBSA predicted post-hepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) better than PBLS or HBSBSA alone. PBLS seemed to measure other aspects of liver function or damage than HBSBSA.
