摘　　要：BACKGROUND Little is unknown about the effect of chronic antithrombotic therapy(ATT)on bleeding complication during or after hepatectomy.In addition,the safety and effectiveness of chemical prevention for venous thromboembolism(VTE)is still controversial.AIM To clarify the effect of ATT on thromboembolism and bleeding after liver resection.METHODS Articles published between 2011 and 2020 were searched from Google Scholar and PubMed,and after careful reviewing of all studies,studies concerning ATT and liver resection were included.Data such as study design,type of surgery,type of antithrombotic agents,and surgical outcome were extracted from the studies.RESULTS Sixteen published articles,including a total of 8300 patients who underwent hepatectomy,were eligible for inclusion in the current review.All studies regarding patients undergoing chronic ATT showed that hepatectomy can be performed safely,and three studies have also shown the safety and efficacy of preoperative continuation of aspirin.Regarding chemical prevention for VTE,some studies have shown a potentially high risk of bleeding complications in patients undergoing chemical thromboprophylaxis;however,its efficacy against VTE has not been shown statistically,especially among Asian patients.CONCLUSION Hepatectomy in patients with chronic ATT can be performed safely without increasing the incidence of bleeding complications,but the safety and effectiveness of chemical thromboprophylaxis against VTE during liver resection is still controversial,especially in the Asian population.Establishing a clear protocol or guideline requires further research using reliable studies with good design.
