Clinical experience with sublobar liver resections.
Abstract
106 liver resections have been performed at the Department of Surgery. 42 of these were liver segmentectomies and other minor liver resections. Such kinds of resective procedure have been adopted in 40 patients affected by benign or malignant lesions in whom the normal liver parenchyma had to be preserved. Indications and technical aspects of hepatic tissue preservation in liver resection are discussed. Liver segmentectomy required a transparenchymal approach, by means of finger fracture technique, through scissural planes to the deeply located segmental pedicle. It should be noted that blood loss and complication rate may be minimized when the technical procedure is carefully performed. A satisfactory survival rate in patients with hepatic involvement from colonic cancer is reported.
