Impact of Ischemic Preconditioning on Outcome in Clinical Liver Surgery: A Systematic Review

Abstract: Background. Ischemia-reperfusion injury is a major cause of post-liver-surgery complications. Ischemic preconditioning (IPC) has been demonstrated to protect against ischemia-reperfusion injury. Clinical studies have examined IPC in liver surgery but with conflicting results. This systematic review aimed to evaluate the effects of IPC on outcome in clinical liver surgery. Methods. An electronic search of OVID Medline and Embase databases was performed to identify studies that reported outcomes in patients unde… Show more

“…The studies with steatotic livers are quite heterogeneous as a technique and duration of ischemia, form of induction of steatosis, certain results, fact that limit the conclusions. In studies with hypothermic ischemia lasting more than 6 hours, PCI had minimal results, generally 31 .…”

“…In studies performed with cirrhotic livers, the parameters remained similar between the cirrhotic groups, with IR or PCI induction 30 . Recent studies confirm the efficacy of the process in reducing hepatocellular injury, but the results are discrepant due to the lack of standardization and the variability in the time of ischemia, which reinforces the need for a protocol to allow the comparison between studies [31][32] . During PCI, the inducible factor of hypoxia-1α (HIF-1α), a substance directly related to hepatocellular protection, is induced.…”

“…IP surgical application, however, has the disadvantage of inducing trauma to major vessels and stress to the target organ [ 9 ]. Moreover the contrasting outcomes of the first clinical studies, the different protocols of IP application in humans, and the variable clinical settings have not allowed a definitive demonstration of the benefit of the clinical application of IP [ 9 13 ].…”

“…Preconditioning the liver with ischemia involves a brief period of portal triad clamping usually between 5–15 minutes followed by a brief period of reperfusion (10–20 min) before a prolonged period of ischemia. Until recently, IPC was one of the widely used protective measures with moderate success . The exact mode of action of the IPC in the prevention of post operative hepatic complication has not yet been fully comprehended .…”

“…Until recently, IPC was one of the widely used protective measures with moderate success . The exact mode of action of the IPC in the prevention of post operative hepatic complication has not yet been fully comprehended . Over the years, studies with experimental and animal models have reported numerous positive effects of IPC on the alleviation of hepatic IR injury and improved post‐operative hepatic functioning.…”
