Prediction of postoperative hepatic insufficiency by liver stiffness measurement (FibroScan(®)) before curative resection of hepatocellular carcinoma: a pilot study

BACKGROUND: Liver stiffness measurement (LSM) using transient elastography (FibroScan(®)) reflects the degree of hepatic fibrosis. This prospective study investigated how well LSM predicts the development of hepatic insufficiency after curative liver resection surgery for hepatocellular carcinoma. M...
