Prolonged hepatic ischaemia due to liver injury: a case report.
A case is reported in which a young male who underwent right hepatectomy necessitated by gunshot wound to the liver, survived 2 h 20 min of normothermic hepatic ischaemia. This case extends the documented duration of hepatic ischaemia compatible with survival and documents the histopathology of the post-ischaemic liver.
