Core Tip

Core Tip: A prediction model for significant intraoperative blood loss in patients with primary hepatic malignancies was constructed in this retrospective analysis. Logistic regression analysis identified four preoperative clinical factors associated with intraoperative bleeding: ascites, history of alcohol consumption, TNM staging, and albumin-bilirubin score. These factors were used to construct a prediction model that demonstrated good accuracy in assessing the risk of intraoperative bleeding. Implementation of this model has the potential to enhance personalized surgical planning, leading to safer and more effective treatment for patients with hepatic malignancies.
