Brief summary

Intermittent Pringle's maneuver is widely used to limit blood loss during hepatectomy, without an established time-limit. However, many authors claims its danger for patients' outcome. The investigators check the short term outcome of a consecutive cohort of patients who underwent hepatectomy with intermittent clamping exceeding 120 minutes.
