Risk factors for AKI included male sex, higher age, and a low preoperative estimated glomerular filtration rate. Patients with AKI were at increased risk of intensive care unit admission (adjusted odds ratio (aOR) 6.06; 95% confidence interval (c.i.) 2.83 to 12.95), Clavien\u2013Dindo grade \u2265 IIIa (aOR 2.08; 95% c.i. 1.61 to 2.67) and PHLF grade B or C (aOR 2.87; 95% c.i. 2.11 to 3.90). Patients with only AKI and patients with both AKI and PHLF grade B or C had an increased risk of 90-day mortality than patients with neither. Postoperative AKI was associated with an increased risk of 90-day mortality even after adjustment for PHLF.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>AKI after major hepatectomy is a common complication and is associated with considerable morbidity and mortality.
