Duration of postoperative hospital stay (d) 16.0 ± 15.3 16.0 ± 14.4 16.0 ± 9.3 0.92
Died during hospitalization 0 (0.0) 11 (0.9) 12 (0.1) 0.96
1

One patient in the renal dysfunction group died due to postoperative gastrointestinal perforation and an intraabdominal abscess.

2

One patient in the non-renal dysfunction group died due to postoperative liver failure.

P values were determined by the χ2 test or the Mann-Whitney U test. RD: Renal dysfunction; CKD: Chronic kidney disease; EGFR: Estimated glomerular filtration rate.
