The Pringle manoeuvre is a surgical manoeuvre used in some abdominal operations.

Surgical techniques such as perihepatic packing or the use of the Pringle manoeuvre can be used to control hemorrhage.

The placement of the shunt allowed venous return to the heart and, along with the Pringle manoeuvre, controled local bleeding.

Under- or over-packing of the liver can cause adverse outcomes, and if the bleeding cannot be controlled through this surgical method, the Pringle manoeuvre should be utilized.

The Pringle manoeuvre is usually performed during a hepatectomy to minimize blood loss - however this can lead to reperfusion injury in the liver due to Ischemia.

In 1908, one of MacEwen's students James Hogarth Pringle, developed the Pringle manoeuvre which is used to control bleeding during liver surgery.

The Pringle manoeuvre is very often used during liver surgery to minimize blood loss, however it can directly lead to reperfusion phenomenon in the liver and it has recently been suggested that it should be avoided in hepatectomy for cancer patients due to its side effects on tumor recurrence and worse prognosis.

Manual compression of the hepatoduodenal ligament during surgery is known as the Pringle Maneuver.

The Pringle maneuver is applied during closure of a vena cava injury when an atriocaval shunt is placed.
