Abstract

Associating liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy (ALPPS) is a novel approach for performing liver resection, and the number of clinical applications of this technique has rapidly increased within recent years. ALPPS is important in patients who have insufficient residual liver volume and cannot undergo radical hepatic resection. The most common postoperative complications of ALPPS include biliary fistula and infection. To date, postoperative acute kidney injury following ALPPS has not been reported. The current study reports the case of a 63‑year‑old patient with hepatitis B‑induced cirrhosis who underwent the first stage of ALPPS without completion of the second step. The patient developed postoperative acute kidney injury following ALPPS. The present case study suggests that the use of ALPPS in patients at risk of chronic renal damage should be approached with caution in order to avoid postoperative acute kidney injury. Furthermore, improvements in surgical techniques and skills of the surgeons performing the procedure are required to reduce the surgery duration and improve patient outcomes.
