Abstract:Hepatectomy represents a critical intervention for liver tumours and other hepatic pathologies. Anaesthetic management during this procedure presents considerable challenges, including the maintenance of intraoperative haemodynamic stability, preservation of coagulation function, and promotion of enhanced recovery after surgery. Recent advances in artificial intelligence (AI) have introduced innovative approaches to support anaesthetic management in hepatectomy. Nonetheless, several core issues persist: (1) altered pharmacokinetics of anaesthetic drugs in patients with impaired liver function; (2) significant risk of haemodynamic instability during surgery; and (3) the necessity for tight coordination between anaesthetic and surgical teams. This review summarises the clinical framework of anaesthetic care for hepatectomy, from preoperative assessment and intraoperative management to complication prevention. It highlights recent progress in AI-enabled applications within this context, offers a comparative evaluation of existing evidence, discusses current limitations, and suggests directions for future research.
