An innovative artificial intelligence framework was developed to quantify the impact of clinical factors on posthepatectomy length of stay (LOS), explaining 75% of its variability. The study analyzed 21,039 patients, revealing that clinical influences are significant while nonclinical factors account for the remaining 25%. Notably, major resections had a longer mean LOS of 6.9 days compared to 5.0 days for minor resections. Random forest models demonstrated the strongest performance among the tested methodologies.
