We report the case of an year old patient with nbsp diagnosis of colon cancer with liver metastases in segment six The patient required partial subtotal right hepatectomy Glycemic control in patients undergoing liver surgery is vital due to the complexity and secondary metabolic repercussions that arise from surgical stress The dysregulation of glucose metabolism is associated with greater morbidity and mortality in these patients In our patient glucose levels were controlled based on the modified Atlanta scheme There were no variations during the transanesthetic or hypoglycaemic events The modified Atlanta scheme provides adequate efficacy and safety for the metabolic control of glucose in patients undergoing liver surgery
