Table 6. Relationship between liver function tests and PHLF

Non-PHLF (n= 298) PHLF (n = 42) p
ICG-R15 (%) 5.20 (3.10 – 8.23) 6.20 (4.25 – 9.53) 0.039
Serum albumin (g/L) 40.60 (37.95 – 42.98) 39.10 (36.40 – 41.58) 0.108
Serum bilirubin (mmol/L) 12.20 (9.50 – 14.67) 12.62 (9.45 – 18.98) 0.136
INR 1.05 (1.00 – 1.12) 1.06 (0.99 – 1.11) 0.864
Platelet count (G/L) 214 (165 – 278) 216 (129 – 266) 0.296
Statistics are median (Q1-Q3); PHLF: post-hepatectomy liver failure. ICG-R15: ICG retention rate at 15 minutes. INR: international normalized ratio
