Brief summary
As a consequence of the increase in life expectancy, hepato-biliary surgeons have to deal with an emerging aged population, which has a potential higher risk for complication and worse long-term outcome. The investigators will be analyzing the liver function and outcome after right or extended right hepatectomy in patients over 70 years old.
