Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The main objective of this study was to evaluate the 5-day kinetics of plasma paracetamol levels in postoperative major hepatic surgery (resection greater than or equal to three hepatic segments) compared with less extensive liver resection and hepatic re-intervention. The clearance of indocyanine green is a marker of hepatic perfusion but also of the proper hepatocyte functioning, if hemodynamic conditions are stable.

Some patients may be operated on up to four or five times in the liver. Moreover, these patients probably present an increased risk of postoperative hepatocellular insufficiency due to a quantitative and qualitative decrease in their hepatic parenchyma. It is therefore interesting to evaluate the use of paracetamol in this situation.
