The aim of this study is to determine the risk factors for major complications following liver resection in the setting of a general surgery-teaching department in Morocco, North Africa
Full description
Over the past 20 years, the refinement of liver surgery techniques, anesthesiology and perioperative management has dramatically improved the safety of liver resection patients. It has also led to a concomitant extension of indications for a growing number of patients with complex benign or malignant hepatobiliary diseases and/or high risk surgeries.
Published complication rates and risk prediction models and recommendations for patients undergoing liver resection primarily stem from far East or Western high-volume specialized centers. In developing countries, including those in North Africa, specific constraints (e.g., endemic indications, such as liver cystic hydatidosis, blood shortage, and the scarcity of liver surgeons and intensive care providers) may impact liver resection outcomes but they are rarely addressed in the literature.
