Estimation of Functional Liver Reserve in Patients With Hepatocellular Carcinoma in Cirrhosis: the Value of Preoperative Cholinesterases
Inclusion Criteria:
1. Total bilirubin < 2 mg/dl
2. No ascites
3. No esophageal varices, or esophageal varices eradicated by endoscopy
4. Liver volume:
- residual liver volume > or = 40% if total bilirubin < 1 mg/dl
- residual liver volume > or = 50% if total bilirubin between 1 and 1.5 mg/dl
- only limited resection if total bilirubin > 1.5 mg/dl
5. Portal vein embolization was selected in any case in whom RLV did not fit the
previous requirements.
Exclusion Criteria:
1. Total bilirubin > 2 mg/dl
2. Refractory ascites
3. Esophageal varices
