Description
Summary:Impact of previous history of choledochojejunostomy (PCJ) on the incidence of organ/space surgical site infection (SSI) after hepatectomy remains unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the incidence and causes of SSI after hepatectomy. Patients who underwent hepatectomy of ≤1 Couinaud's sector between January 2011 and September 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. Incidence of and risk factors for organ/space SSI (Clavien-Dindo grade ≥2) after hepatectomy were investigated. Among 750 hepatectomies, 18 patients (2.4%) had a medical history of PCJ. Incidence of organ/space SSI was higher in patients with PCJ (50%) than in those without PCJ (3%, P
