Objective. To improve the results of treatment of patients with focal liver formations by preventing the development of postoperative complications after liver resections. Methods. The study included 304 patients with benign and malignant liver lesions. In 196 (64.4%) patients, resections were performed for malignant liver damage, in 108 (35.6%) — for a benign process. To assess the impact of ongoing measures to prevent the development of postoperative complications, patients were divided into two time periods: from 2007 to 2012 and from 2013 to 2018. Results. The introduction of a protocol of preoperative examination of patients for whom resection of 3 or more liver segments is planned, with the inclusion of SPECT/CT, which allows determining the volume of the remaining functioning liver parenchyma, allowed to reduce the percentage of development of acute post-resection liver failure from 11.6% to 3.6% during the second time period (p=0.0064). The use of modern suture material, surgical binocular loops, as well as the use of the concept of predominantly performing parenchyma-saving resections, reduced the number of biliary complications from 8.1% to 5.7% (p=0.1). The use of a proprietary dissection algorithm for the liver parenchyma significantly reduced hemorrhagic complications from 5.3% to 1.04% (p=0.0074). Conclusion: The use of modern pre- and intraoperative technologies has reduced the number of postoperative complications after liver resections from 38.3% to 20.9% (p=0.018) and mortality from 2.6% to 0.5% (p=0.004), thereby improving the results of liver resections.
