“…There were no postoperative deaths, while the morbidity rate after a second resection (17%) was acceptably low and similar to the morbidity of the initial resection (29%). These results compare favourably to those of other studies on repeat hepatic resection (table 4), in which mortality rates of 0–2.5% and morbidity rates of 11–33% have been reported [15, 16,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,34]. Some authors have reported an increased risk of bleeding after repeat hepatic resection [16, 17, 25, 27, 29, 31, 35], a factor known to be a determinant of mortality and morbidity after resection [17, 27, 35].…”
