Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether HIFU-assisted liver resection (HIFU-AR) results in reduced blood loss compared to standard liver resection in patients with LM.This is a prospective, monocentric, randomized (1:1 ratio), comparative, open-label Phase II study.

Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Normalized blood loss (ml/cm2) [ Time Frame: During hepatectomy ]
    To compare the blood loss during hepactectomy in patients treated by HIFU-AR versus standard liver resection


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Total blood los (ml) [ Time Frame: During hepatectomy ]
  2. Transection time [ Time Frame: During hepatectomy ]
  3. Transection time/cm2 of liver area (min/cm2) [ Time Frame: During hepatectomy ]
  4. Hemostasis time [ Time Frame: During hepatectomy ]
  5. Clip density on the liver section area [ Time Frame: During hepatectomy ]
    Number of clips/cm2

  6. Rate of Pringle manoeuvre [ Time Frame: During hepatectomy ]
  7. Rate of patients needing a blood transfusion [ Time Frame: During hepatectomy ]
  8. Length of hospital stay [ Time Frame: 10 days ]
  9. Number of patients with postoperative complications assessed using Dindo-Clavien classification [ Time Frame: 6 months ]
