Background: Anticoagulant prophylaxis for major hepatectomy operations is still unclear. Liver plays a main role on hemostasis and coagulation parameters are disturbed by major hepatectomies. The risk of thromboembolism increases after the hepatectomies as in other major abdominal operations. However, presence of anticoagulant prophylaxis constitute a significant risk of bleeding complications. Here, we aimed to interpret the effects of donor hepatectomies on the coagulation functions and to evaluate the role of safe anticoagulant prophylaxis.
