Abstract
Background
Frailty has been associated with increased mortality among patients with surgery. However, evidence about the frailty prevalence and outcomes in frail populations with hepatectomy is inconsistent and has not been clarified. The purpose of this study was to quantitatively synthesize the prevalence of frailty and the role of frailty on mortality in patients with hepatectomy.
Methods
Embase, PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science were searched for eligible studies that explored the prevalence and impact of frailty in hepatectomy from inception until January 24, 2024. The pooled prevalence of frailty and odds ratio (OR) corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CI) in mortality and major complications estimates were analyzed.
Results
A total of 26 studies containing 128 868 patients with hepatectomy were included. The prevalence of frailty in hepatectomy was 23% (95% CI: 17–28; p = .000). Frailty was associated with an increased odds ratio for mortality (adjusted OR = 3.06; 95% CI: 1.85–5.04; p = .000). Furthermore, frailty was significantly associated with an increased odds ratio for major complications (adjusted OR = 3.20; 95% CI: 2.04–5.04; p < .01).
Conclusion
The prevalence of frailty in patients with hepatectomy is prevalent, which has a significant adverse impact on the outcomes of patients with hepatectomy. These findings highlight the importance of frailty assessment in this population, which may provide prognostic details.
