Abstract

Background

The assessment of liver volume (LV) is important before surgical resection or transplantation to reduce the risk of hepatic insufficiency. LV is usually measured using computed tomography or with some formulas. The aim of this study was to develop a new dynamic formula to predict LV.

Methods

Using computed tomography, LV was calculated in 101 patients without liver disease. LV was correlated with patient metabolic status, calculated with the Harris–Benedict equation for basal energy expenditure (BEE). Activity energy expenditure (AEE) was also calculated. Using linear regression analysis, a new formula was derived and was compared with Heinmann’s, Urata’s, Emre’s, Vauthey’s, Yoshizumi’s, Yu’s, and Hashimoto’s formulas.

Results

A new basal formula was established: LV = (0.789 × BEE) + 272. It was found to be the most accurate (R2 = 0.39, p < 0.001). Heinmann’s, Emre’s, and Vauthey’s formulas tend to overestimate LV, while Urata’s, Yoshizumi’s, Yu’s, and Hashimoto’s formulas tend to underestimate LV. A new AEE formula was also established: LV = (0.789 × AEE) + 272.

Conclusions

These formulas give a dynamic perspective of LV, which may be influenced by the patient’s actual clinical status. Using these formulas, it is possible to estimate an increased value of LV, which may contribute to a reduction in the risk of postoperative hepatic insufficiency.

S3-Leitlinie „Diagnostik und Therapie des Karpaltunnelsyndroms“

Karpaltunnelsyndrom BDC Leitlinien Webinare
CME: 2 Punkte

Das Karpaltunnelsyndrom ist die häufigste Kompressionsneuropathie peripherer Nerven. Obwohl die Anamnese mit dem nächtlichen Einschlafen der Hand (Brachialgia parästhetica nocturna) sehr typisch ist, ist eine klinisch-neurologische Untersuchung und Elektroneurografie in manchen Fällen auch eine Neurosonografie erforderlich. Im Anfangsstadium sind konservative Maßnahmen (Handgelenksschiene, Ergotherapie) empfehlenswert. Bei nicht Ansprechen der konservativen Therapie oder Auftreten von neurologischen Ausfällen ist eine Dekompression des N. medianus am Karpaltunnel indiziert.
