Abstract Background: Portal vein embolization (PVE) is a common procedure to induce hypertrophy of the remnant liver (RL) before major hepatectomy. Objective: Evaluate increased RL volume after PVE based on CT volumetric measurement. Methods: Multi-detector computed tomography (MDCT) was used to measure hepatic volumetric measurement, including total liver volume and RL volumes of pre- and post-PVE. Complications were recorded from PVE and from three-month after post-extended hepatectomy liver dysfunction. Result and conclusion: There was a 10% increase in RL volume. Mean days between CT and PVE were 20 days. No major complications from PVE were observed.
