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
