Liver remnant volume to body weight ratio of 0.65% as a lower limit in right hepatic trisectionectomy with bile duct resection

Previous studies have suggested the utility of an indocyanine green plasma clearance rate of the future liver remnant (FLR) (ICGK-F) ≥0.05 in hepatobiliary resection to reduce the surgical risk. The present study aimed to verify whether future liver remnant size rather than ICGK-F matters in extended hepatobiliary resection.
