Other related information RESULTS:

We performed liver resections in 260 patients with hepatobiliary malignancies. Between the subcutaneous-drainage group (n = 131) and non-drainage group (n = 129), there were no significant differences in the operative variables. Wound infection occurred in 10 drainage group patients (8%) and 12 patients (9%) in the non-drainage group (P = 0.629); there was no significant difference in the probability of wound infection (P = 0.624). No significant differences were found between the groups for the hospital stay duration (P = 0.363), postoperative complications (P = 0.725) or medical expenses (P = 0.360).

CONCLUSIONS:

Subcutaneous drainage does not prevent wound infections in patients undergoing liver resection; therefore, its routine use is not justified.
