Abstract Background Hepatectomy in children deserves exhaustive preoperative and intraoperative tools to define the anatomy, minimize blood loss, and confirm adequacy of liver tissue left. The aim of this study is to report our experience in surgical management of liver tumors. Results All liver resections performed in Ain-Shams University Hospital, by the same team, between July 2013 and June 2018 were retrospectively reviewed. Data related to basic demographics, indication for resection, methods of parenchymal resection, blood loss, hospital stay, morbidity, and mortality was collected. The study included 27 patients who underwent different types of hepatectomies. There was a male predominance. Age ranged from 6 months to 13 years. Weight ranged from 5.7 to 33.7 kg. Total operative time ranged from 68 to 322 min, while resection time ranged from 34 to 144 min. Blood loss ranged from 53 to 259 ml. Surgical morbidities included five patients with minor biliary leak, three patients had surgical site infection, and one patient had torsion of the remnant liver necessitating repositioning. Recurrence of the mass was faced in three patients with hepatoblastoma. There were two mortalities; one occurred as a sequela of massive intraoperative bleeding and the other took place due to postoperative hepatic insufficiency. Conclusion For a safe hepatectomy, thorough familiarity of the hepatic segmental anatomy together with the various techniques for parenchymal resection and vascular control is fundamental. Complications such as biliary leak and torsion of remnant can be easily avoided by simple measures.

Minimize Blood Loss

SummaryIn healthy humans, blood vessel-tissue factor is found primarily in the adventitia and thus physically separated from coagulation factors, which mainly circulate in an inactive form. Following injury, TF is exposed to blood and initiates the coagulation cascade. The resulting fibrin formation is an essential part for the initial repair of vessel damage to minimize blood-loss (reviewed by (1-4). Therefore, TF may be considered to form a hemostatic sheath around blood vessels essential for hemostasis and appears to be essential for life inasmuch as no TF deficiency has been reported and TF knockout mice do not survive beyond the perinatal period.
