Bile Duct Replacement in Hepatobiliary Surgery: A Systematic Review

World Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Roux‐en‐Y hepaticojejunostomy (RYHJ) is currently the standard surgical technique for reestablishing biliary continuity, but it exposes the patient to serious biliary complications, such as anastomosis stricture and ascending cholangitis. RYHJ also limits access to the biliary tree for endoscopic intervention in cases with biliary complications, making

Analysis of Essential Liver Anatomy for Anatomical Segmentectomy 8: A Proposal for the Hybrid Glissonean Approach

World Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Anatomical segmentectomy 8 is challenging owing to the complex branching patterns and position of the Glissonean pedicle of segment 8 (G8) root. The hepatic vein‐guided approach and extrahepatic Glissonean approach are essential for accurate G8 root identification. We evaluated the key anatomical factors for precise G8 root transection and proposed the
