Ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury is a complex process involving numerous intracellular signaling pathways, mediators, cells, and pathophysiological disturbances; its prevention during liver surgery is of utmost importance. In this review, we divide hepatic I/R injury into two phases, intracellular and extracellular, for a better understanding of the processes involved. Ca2+ and Ca2+-dependent reactions play an important role as a trigger in the former phase, while the subsequent generation of bioactive substances plays a predominant role in the latter phase. These findings indicate that a combination of different therapeutic approaches against Ca2+-dependent steps may help prevent I/R injury of the liver.
