In-situ split (ISS) liver resection is a novel method to induce rapid hypertrophy of the contralateral liver lobe in patients at risk for postoperative liver failure due to insufficient liver remnant. So far, no data about oncological long-term survival after ISS liver resection is available. We retrospectively analyzed our patients treated with ISS liver resection at the Department of Surgery of the University of Regensburg, the first center worldwide to perform ISS. Between 2007 and 2014, ISS liver resection was performed in 16 patients. Two patients (12.5 %) were lost in early postoperative phase (90 days) and one was lost to follow-up. Thirteen patients with a follow-up period of more than 3 months were included into oncologically focused analyses. Median follow-up was 26.4 months (range 3.2-54.6). Seven patients had suffered from colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) and six from various other liver malignancies (non-CRLM). The ISS procedure had led to a median increase of 86.3 % of the left lateral liver lobe after a median of 9 days (range 4-28 days). Median disease-free survival (DFS) was 14.6 months and median overall survival (OS) was 41.7 months (26.4 months when including 90-days mortality). Three-year survival was calculated with 56.4 and 48.9 % when including perioperative mortality, respectively (CRLM 64.3 % vs. non-CRLM 50 %). ISS liver resection can provide long-term survival of selected patients with advanced liver malignancies that otherwise are not eligible for liver resection due to insufficient liver remnant.
