ALPPS with associated intra-abdominal resection procedures: Can we perform concomitant procedure with acceptable mortality and complication rate?

ALPPS is an extensive, complex, and physiologically demanding surgical procedure procedure and there are concerns about performing additional procedures which may have more or less significant impact on complication and mortality rates. Better understanding of physiological processes during and after ALPPS, improvement of surgical technique, preand postoperative management will decrease these negative rates and further studies on ALPPS will help us to bring consensus about safety, indications and optimal surgical technique.
