Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: All patients with inadequate FLR planned for portal vein embolization before major liver resections.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. Patients denying consent 2. Locally unresectable disease 3. Distant metastasis 4. Child Pugh B and C cirrhotic patients 5. Clinically significant portal hypertension 6.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Assessment of absolute FLR hypertrophy at 14 days and 28 days after PVE. FLR absolute hypertrophy was calculated as (FLR volume after PVE-FLR volume before PVE) x 100/ (FLR volume before PVE)Timepoint: At 14 and 28 days post portal vein embolization

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Comparison of additional volumetric liver growth variables (degree of hypertrophy and kinetic growth rate) between the PVE groups includedTimepoint: At 14 and 28 days post portal vein embolization;Total contrast material volume usedTimepoint: At the time of portal vein embolization procedure;Pain intensity according to visual analog scale (range, 0â??10)Timepoint: At the time of portal vein embolization procedure;total fluoroscopy and procedure timeTimepoint: At the time of portal vein embolization procedure;Minor and major complications, and hospital stayTimepoint: During hospital stay post procedure
