Key clinical point: Specific predictors for postoperative 90-day mortality for hepatocellular carcinoma patients after hepatic resection include Child-Pugh score, intraoperative blood loss, post-hepatectomy liver failure (PHLF), and peak serum bilirubin.
Major finding: The overall postoperative 90-day mortality rate for HCC patients after hepatic resection was 5.3%. Significant predictors of mortality Child-Pugh score (p < 0.001), intraoperative blood loss (P = 0.013), the 50-50 criteria for PHLF (P < 0.001) on postoperative day 5, and peak serum bilirubin >119 µmol/L (P = 0.007) on postoperative day 3.
Study details: The data come from a retrospective study of 244 adults with HCC who underwent elective hepatic resection between January 1, 2007, and December 31, 2017.
Disclosures: The study received no outside funding. The researchers had no financial conflicts to disclose.
