Background and aims |
This study assessed glucose metabolism via continuous intraoperative monitoring of blood glucose in patients undergoing hepatic resection.
Methods |
Thirty patients who underwent hepatic resection were enrolled. During hepatic resection, blood glucose concentration was continuously measured by an artificial pancreas.
Results |
Glucose concentrations followed a similar up-and-down pattern in all patients during the Pringle maneuver series. The concentration decreased marginally during the first clamping of the hepatoduodenal ligament but showed a rapid increase after unclamping. However, this increase declined with the number of Pringle cycles (P < .01). Patients with liver cirrhosis showed smaller elevations in glucose concentration after the first unclamping compared with patients without liver cirrhosis (P < .05).
Conclusions |
The present study showed a rapid and profound transition in glucose concentration during hepatic resection. The mechanism underlying the transition of blood glucose concentration may involve glycogen break down within hepatocytes because of hypoxia.
