Justin Sang Ko, Mi Sook Gwak, Soo Joo Choi, Gaab Soo Kim, Jie Ae Kim, Mikyung Yang, Sangmin Maria Lee, Hyun Sung Cho, In Sun Chung, Myung Hee Kim – 30 July 2008 – Various volatile anesthetics have been used in hepatectomy in living donors, and their effects on major organs have been extensively evaluated.
