Factors Related to Textbook Outcome in Laparoscopic Liver Resections: a Single Western Centre Analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

The selection of the most informative quality of care indicator for laparoscopic liver surgery (LLS) is still debated; among those proposed, textbook outcome (TO) seems to provide a compositive measure of the outcomes of surgery. The aim of this study was to investigate the factors related with the TO in a cohort of patients who underwent LLS.

Methods

Patients who underwent LLS from 2014 to 2021 were included. TO for LLS (TOLLS) was defined as: R0 resection, absence of intraoperative incidents, severe complications, reintervention, 30-day readmission and in-hospital mortality. When also considering no prolonged length of hospital stay (LOS), the outcome was called TOLLS+.

Results

Four hundred twenty-one patients were included; TOLLS was achieved in 80.5%,
