Clinical Trial: Routine Intraoperative White Test for Bile Leak Detection in Liver Resection: A Randomized Trial Protocol

U.S., April 7 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07511907) titled 'Routine Intraoperative White Test for Bile Leak Detection in Liver Resection: A Randomized Trial Protocol' on March 30.

Brief Summary: Bile leakage (BL) remains one of the most frequent complications following liver resection and is associated with increased postoperative morbidity and mortality, higher reintervention rates, prolonged hospital stay, and increased healthcare costs. Effective intraoperative identification and closure of open bile ducts may reduce the risk of postoperative BL. The White Test, which involves retrograde injection of a lipid emulsion into the biliary tree, enables active detection of bile leaks during sur...
