Reversal of Experimental Posthepatectomy Liver Failure in Pigs: A New Application of Hepatocyte Bioreactors

Postoperative liver failure remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality after extensive hepatectomies. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a hepatocyte bioreactor in the treatment of experimental post‐hepatectomy liver failure. Our experimental model included a combination of a sid...
