Abstract
Unroofing of symptomatic simple liver cysts was the first laparoscopic liver procedure to be performed followed by resection of superficial, small-sized benign tumors. The first laparoscopic anatomical liver resection, a left lateral sectionectomy, was reported in 1996. More recently, larger hepatectomies and liver resections for malignant tumors have been described. Today, about 15–20% of liver resections might be considered for a laparoscopic approach.
