title: [The role of transjugular hepatic biopsy in preparation of the patients for the large hepatic resection].
abstract: The results of transjugular hepatic biopsy (TJHB) were analyzed in 32 patients, in whom the performance of hepatic radical resection was planned for the focal hepatic diseases. The biopsy procedures have had succeeded in 100% of observations. The severe complications were absent. The specimen length have constituted 12 mm at average, fragmentation was noted in 32% of observations. All the specimen were recognized as affordable for histological studying. In 24 patients in terms of 2-4 weeks after biopsy the embolization of lobar branches of portal vein was performed with the objective to enhance the assumed residual hepatic volume. In all the patients in terms of 2-8 weeks the spacious radical hepatic resection was succeeded. The data obtained witness that application of TJHB is expedient in the patients, who are prepared for spacious radical hepatic resection, for estimation of the organ parenchyma state and prognostication of postoperative hepatic insufficiency.
