Metabolic profile in right lobe living donor hepatectomy: Comparison of lactated Ringer′s solution and normal saline versus acetate based balanced salt solution - a pilot study

Background and Aims: Lactate levels predict outcomes after hepatectomy. We compared metabolic effects of lactated versus lactate free solutions in living donor hepatectomy. Methods: Consecutive right lobe donors (n = 53) were alternatively allotted to lactated Ringer′s solution and normal saline (Gr...
