Purpose Intraoperative blood loss during liver resection remains a major concern due to association with higher postoperative complications. The InLine RFA device (ILRFA) (Resect Medical Inc(R) Fremont CA) has achieved promising results in liver surgery with minimal blood loss and no increase of postoperative complications. In this multicentre controlled study, 108 patients undergoing liver resection were investigated. Methodology 108 liver resections were performed in 4 medical centres, consisting of 54 ILRFA and 54 ultrasonic Surgical Aspirator (USA) transection as the control group. Pringle manoeuvre was applied only when required. Blood loss was measured from sponge weights and suction bottle contents. Results The type of liver resection was very similar in both groups. Median number of RFA deployments was 3 (1-12) with a median coagulation time of 9 (3-36) minutes. Median operation blood loss was 165 +/- 20 ml (5-675 ml) in the ILRFA and 654 +/-83 ml (80-3600 ml) in the control, a 74.8% reduction (P < 0.001). The median transection blood loss per unit resection area was 3.29 +/- 0.40 (0.14-12.33) ml/cm2 in the ILRFA patients compared with 6.41 +/- 0.71 (0.92-36) ml/cm2 in controls, the reduction was 48.7% (P < 0.001). The transection time in ILRFA was slightly faster than that in controls, but not significantly different. Conclusion ILRFA precoagulation is a safe, effective technique for liver resections which significantly reduces blood loss.
