Abstract
Background: As elevated portal vein pressure (PVP) is associated with posthepatectomy liver failure (PLF), we hypothesized that prehepatectomy PVP may be predictive factor associated with increased risk of PLF. We evaluated the predictive value of PVP before liver resection for the International Study Group of Liver Surgery (ISGLS) definition and severity of grading of PLF on hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients
