Area of Science:

  • Hepatobiliary Surgery
  • Surgical Oncology
  • Intensive Care Medicine

Background:

  • Hepatectomy carries significant morbidity (up to 40%) despite perioperative care advances.
  • Existing nomograms for post-hepatectomy complications lack early postoperative data.
  • Predicting severe outcomes after liver surgery is crucial for patient management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To identify risk factors for severe post-hepatectomy complications using routine Intensive Care Unit (ICU) data.
  • To develop a practical scoring system for predicting severe postoperative complications.
  • To enhance early warning and patient management strategies following liver resections.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective observational study of 411 adult patients undergoing elective hepatectomy.
  • Analysis of preoperative and early ICU parameters (pH, lactate clearance, lactate levels, transfusions, ICU stay) as predictors of 30-day severe complications (Clavien-Dindo grade ≥3a).
  • Development and validation of a nomogram scoring system.

Main Results:

  • Severe complications occurred in 19% of patients.
  • Key predictors included body mass index, preoperative bilirubin, and ICU data: pH, lactate clearance, arterial lactate at 12 hours, packed red blood cell transfusions, and ICU length of stay.
  • The developed scoring system demonstrated good predictive accuracy (C-index=0.754) and stability.

Conclusions:

  • An accurate and practical scoring system was developed using preoperative and early ICU data to predict poor outcomes after hepatectomy.
  • This tool can aid in patient management and provide early warnings during ICU stays.
  • Further external validation is recommended for routine clinical integration.
