Abstract
Innovative Strategies and Recent Advances in Liver Surgery
Highlights
Improvements in imaging evaluation with high-resolution CT scan or MRI allow new methods for the study of the future remnant liver and play an important role in the planning of the resection strategy reducing the risk of major complications and liver failure, especially in patients who undergo major resection
The new dissector devices have been developed and together with the use of intraoperative ultrasound allow a new approach to the anatomical ultrasound-guided liver resection, even for large tumors located in challenging positions
The incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is climbing rapidly and in a current climate of organ shortage has led to the re-evaluation of locoregional therapies and resectional surgery to manage the case load
Summary
Improvements in imaging evaluation with high-resolution CT scan or MRI allow new methods for the study of the future remnant liver and play an important role in the planning of the resection strategy reducing the risk of major complications and liver failure, especially in patients who undergo major resection.
