Background Hepatectomy for liver cirrhosis patients requires skillful surgical technique and careful attention because of the fibrotic parenchyma, elevated portal pressure, and impaired coagulation. This report evaluated short- and long-term outcomes for liver cirrhosis patients receiving precoagulation therapy on the parenchymal transection plane, compared with noncoagulation cases. Methods Seventy-three patients diagnosed with cirrhosis via postoperative pathological findings were selected after reviewing 887 hepatectomy patient files. They were divided into a precoagulation group (n = 20) and a noncoagulation group (n = 53). There were no significant differences in patient and tumor factors between 2 groups. Results The precoagulation group had significantly less blood loss compared with noncoagulation group [282 vs 563g (P &amp;lt; 0.05)], shorter operative time [214 vs 276 min (P = 0.06)], and shorter postoperative hospital stays [14.5 vs 22.5 days (P = 0.12)]. The median recurrence free survival rates time in the pre-coagulation group (733 days) was significantly longer than that in the non-coagulation group (400 days) (P &amp;lt; 0.05). Overall survival rates showed rates showed no difference between the 2 groups (P = 0.62). Conclusions Precoagulation therapy may be the a preferred treatment application for hepatectomy patients with severe liver fibrosis.
