Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1. Effect of thoracic epidural analgesia on intraoperative haemodynamic parameters, central venous pressure 2.assessing whether duration of surgery, volume infused, residual liver volume and hypocalcemia increase the risk of coagulopathy in these patientsTimepoint: day 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
