Objective  To systematically evaluate safety and effectiveness of using fast track surgery (FTS) protocol in perioperative management of hepatectomy. Methods  The studies were collected by searching the PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, CNKI, Wanfang Data, and VIP databases by two researchers. The FTS management was used in the FTS group and the traditional perioperative management was used in the traditional group. The meta analysis was performed using the RevMan 5.3 software. Results  A total of 28 articles were included in the study, of which 1 632 patients in the FTS group and 1 820 patients in the traditional group; 14 RCTs, 14 CCTs. The results of meta analysis showed: Compared with the traditional group, the FTS not only could reduce the pain of patients during 24 and 48 hours after the surgery [24 h: WMD=–0. 92, 95%CI (–1.05, –0.79), P<0.000 01; 48 h:WMD=–0.73, 95%CI (–0.90, –0.56), P<0.000 01], but also shorten the first postoperative flatus time of patients [WMD=–17.36, 95%CI (–23.16, –11.56), P<0.000 01] and the length of hospital stay [WMD=–2.42, 95%CI (–3.02, –1.63), P<0.000 01] and reduce the hos-pitalization expenses [WMD=–0.52, 95%CI (–0.64, –0.41, P<0.000 01]; While the incidences of pulmonary comp-lications [OR=0.51, 95%CI (0.32, 0.81), P=0.005], total complications [OR=0.57, 95%CI (0.38, 0.87), P=0.008], and nausea and vomiting [OR=0.45, 95%CI (0.31, 0.65), P<0.000 1] were significantly decreased. The RCT group and CCT group showed the same conclusions with the overall study (except incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications between the two groups in the CCT study). Conclusion  For patients with elective hepatectomy, it seems feasible to use FTS protocol, which could promote postoperative bowel recovery, shorten length of hospital day, and save medical resources.
