We read with great interest the article by Golriz et al. [1] published in the August 2017 issue of Canadian Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology. The aim of this research study was to establish a porcine model of small for size syndrome (SFSS). The authors divided 24 Landrace pigs into 3 groups according to the remnant liver volume; group A, group B, and group C underwent liver resection with a remnant liver volume of 50%, 25%, and 15%, respectively. Gorliz and his colleagues conclude that 75% liver resection in porcine model results in SFSS. This is a very interesting research manuscript in our understanding regarding the establishment of a porcine model of small for size syndrome after extended hepatectomy. However, there are some questions which demand further consideration.
