The prevalence of PHLF was 14.3%. The median maximum tumor diameter was 5.1 cm (2.9–6.9 cm). The proportions of patients with elevated TBA levels (<em>P</em> = 0.001), severe albumin-bilirubin (AIBL) grades (<em>P</em> = 0.033), and low platelet counts (<em>P</em> = 0.031) were significantly higher within the subgroup of patients with PHLF than in the subgroup without PHLF. The multivariate analysis results suggest that TBA level (OR, 1.08; 951.03–1.14; <em>P</em> = 0.003) and MRI tumor diameter (OR, 1.17; 95% CI, 1.01–1.35; <em>P</em> = 0.038) are independent preoperative risk factors for PHLF. The TBA levels correlated with the indocyanine green retention rate at 15 minutes (<em>P</em> = 0.001) and the effective hepatic blood flow (<em>P</em> < 0.001), two markers of portal hypertension. However, TBA levels did not correlate with tumor diameter (<em>P</em> = 0.536).</div></div><div><h3>Conclusions</h3><div>Compared to ICG R15 and AIBL score, preoperative TBA was risk factor for PHLF in Chinese patients with HCC, and it may impact PHLF through its potential role as a marker of portal hypertension.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":93935,"journal":{"name":"Cirugia espanola","volume":"102 12","pages":"Pages 642-648"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142407384","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Second: Universal use of tranexamic acid in major surgery, bedside monitoring of intraoperative hemoglobin levels, restrictive transfusion criteria, and monitoring of patient well-being in terms of hydration, coagulability, normothermia and analgesia. Third: Restrictive transfusion criteria, single-unit blood transfusion and diagnosis/treatment of postoperative anemia.
