AbstractMore than 3,000 laparoscopic liver resections (LLR) are performed worldwide for benign disease, malignancy, and living donor hepatectomy. Minimally invasive hepatic resection approaches include pure laparoscopic, hand‐assisted laparoscopic, and a laparoscopic‐assisted open “hybrid” approach, where the operation is started laparoscopically to ...

RESECTION OF THE LIVER FOR CARCINOMA
Archives of Surgery, 1952MOST TUMORS of the liver are secondary lesions representing either direct invasions from malignant conditions in adjacent organs or metastases from more distant lesions. It has been customary to consider liver involvement as evidence of hopelessness of the patient's condition.

Liver resection in the elderly
British Journal of Surgery, 1997The operative mortality rate for hepatic resection in the elderly has been reported to be as high as 40 per cent for extended resection.An increasing need to justify use of limited healthcare resources prompted a prospective assessment of 133 consecutive hepatic resections performed in 30 months in patients over 65 years of age.The overall mortality ...

Liver resection for colorectal liver metastases
European Journal of Surgical Oncology (EJSO), 1995The management of patients with colorectal liver metastases is still controversial. Recent evidence suggests benefit for resection of localized metastases within a single lobe of the liver. A series of 49 patients undergoing liver resection for localized liver metastases is presented.

Liver resection for colorectal liver metastasis
Surgical Oncology, 2007At some point in the natural course of colorectal cancer up to 50% of patients will develop metastasis to the liver. Historically only 20% of these patients would have to be deemed resectable, with an intent to cure, at the time of presentation. But with recent improvements in cross-sectional imaging, chemotherapeutic agents and advances in the ...

Surgical Clinics of North America, 1989
Liver resection can be safely accomplished using techniques based on a thorough knowledge of anatomy and the use of readily available tools. Preoperative studies can determine resectability in most cases. An aggressive attitude toward resection of localized primary and secondary malignancies is justified by a 5-year survival rate of 25 to 35 per cent ...

Until now, over 20 years has elapsed since the first conduction of laparoscopic liver resection (LLR), which was reported in 1991 for the treatment of benign liver tumors incidentally found in a gynecologic laparoscopic surgery [1]. Although numerous doctors attempted to perform LLR after the abovementioned case, the development of minimally invasive ...

Liver – Anatomical Liver Resections
2011The first footsteps in the field of laparoscopic liver surgery were marked by wedge resections limited to the marginal and anterior regions of the organ. Since then, more technically demanding procedures have been performed with efficacy and safety equaling outcomes in open surgery when performed in highly specialized centers. To propose laparoscopy as
