| Abstract |
The safety and feasibility of retrograde laparoscopic resection of the left side of the liver. Ninety-three laparoscopic left hepatic lobe cases were selected between August 2010 and August 2014 from our institution. A retrospective cohort study was performed between the antegrade partial hepatectomy group (47 cases; dissection from the first porta hepatis to the second) and the retrograde partial hepatectomy group (46 cases; dissection from the second porta hepatis to the first), to compare the length of time needed for resection, the amount of bleeding, post-operative time in the hospital, and the incidence of major complications, such as bile leakage, abdominal abscess, and post-hepatectomy hemorrhage. All of the cases had a successful laparoscopic partial hepatectomy without the need for an intraoperative blood transfusion. Patients were able to ambulate on post-operative day 1 and tolerated a liquid diet on post-operative day 1 or 2. There were no statistical differences of post-operative hospital length of stay or incidence of major complications between the two groups. Both duration of resection and the amount of bleeding were less in the retrograde group than of those in the antegrade group, due to the lower incidence of hepatic vein injury in the retrograde group. Occlusion of both the inflow and outflow hepatic vessels combined with retrograde hepatectomy from the second porta hepatis to the first, demonstrated less hemorrhage and lower incidence of hepatic veins injury during laparoscopic partial hepatectomy. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 18 December 2015.
All research outputs
#14,830,048
of 22,835,198 outputs
Outputs from Surgical Endoscopy
#3,575
of 6,040 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#202,167
of 363,134 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Surgical Endoscopy
#50
of 130 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,835,198 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 32nd percentile – i.e., 32% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 6,040 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.1. This one is in the 37th percentile – i.e., 37% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 363,134 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 41st percentile – i.e., 41% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 130 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 57% of its contemporaries.
