Abstract
Liver transplantation, as an effective therapy for patients with liver cancer, plays an important role in improving the quality of life of patients. However, the complexity and trauma of liver transplantation can easily lead to the occurrence of malnutrition in patients, and then increase the risk of postoperative complications, which has aroused widespread clinical attention. Reasonable nutritional support can not only maintain the stability of the body’s internal environment, reduce the occurrence of complications, but also promote the recovery of liver and other organ functions. In recent years, with the in-depth understanding of nutritional metabolism after liver transplantation, the application of enteral nutrition and parenteral nutrition in nutritional support after liver transplantation has been increasingly extensive and achieved remarkable results. This paper discusses the effect of early postoperative nutritional intervention on patients with liver cancer and liver transplantation, and combined with its mechanism of action, can better understand the effectiveness of intervention, and provide reference for the development of scientific and reasonable nutritional support programs in clinical practice.
Core Tip: This paper discusses the effect of early postoperative nutritional intervention on patients with liver cancer and liver transplantation, and combined with its mechanism of action, can better understand the effectiveness of intervention, and provide reference for the development of scientific and reasonable nutritional support programs in clinical practice.
