No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The investigators will investigate the impact of different biometric parameters (Body mass index, sarcopenia, lean muscle mass, hand-grip strength, gait speed, fat composition) on the postoperative outcomes of patients undergoing liver resections.

Major and minor liver resections will be considered as well as open and minimally invasive techniques.

Benign and malignant indications will be included. Patients characteristics and perioperative variables will be considered for analysis.

Short-term outcomes will be evaluated focusing on 90-days morbidity and mortality and readmission rate.
