Differences in Right Hepatic Duct Length Among Left‐Sided Hepatectomies: Conventional Hepatectomy Versus Extended Hepatectomy Versus Trisectionectomy

Journal of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Left‐sided hepatectomy for perihilar cholangiocarcinoma includes conventional left hepatectomy (C‐LH; H1234‐B), extended left hepatectomy (E‐LH; H12345′8′‐B‐MHV), and left trisectionectomy (LT; H123458‐B). The anatomical characteristics of the resected length of the right hepatic duct (RHD) in E‐LH remain unclear.
