Evaluation of surgical risk in patients with liver cirrhosis
Abstract:
The prevalence of liver cirrhosis in population is increasing, as well as its prevalence among patients admitted to hospital for elective surgery. These patients are at risk of high postoperative morbidity and mortality. Perioperative risk assessment of patients with liver cirrhosis is a complex procedure. It consists of evaluation of general condition of the patient, including comorbidities and nutritional status, evaluation of the grade of liver disease, and urgency of the surgical procedure. There are no specific guidelines. Proper risk assessment before surgery, considering alternative ways of treatment, is a cornerstone of optimal postoperative course and prevention of complications in patients with liver cirrhosis.
