Primary experience of the anatomical laparoscopic left lateral hepatic lobectomy procedure for benign and malignant liver tumors

To assess the feasibility, safety and outcome of anatomical laparoscopic left lateral hepatic lobectomy for benign and malignant liver tumors. From April 2005 to May 2008, 11 patients (7 male, 4 female; mean age 51.7 years) underwent anatomical laparoscopic left lateral hepatic lobectomy. Four patients presented with hepatocellular carcinoma and cirrhosis, while 1 patient had metastatic liver tumors from postoperatively colon cancer, five patients had hemangioma (2 cases with gallstones underwent cholecystectomy), 1 patient had a huge symptomatic angiolipoleiomyoma. Mean tumor size was 5.8 cm (range 2.1 to 12.0 cm). All the lesions were localized in the anatomical left lateral lobe (segments II to III). The mean operative time was 147 min (range 120 to 180 min). There were no intraoperative or postoperative complications, and blood transfusions were not required. The mean postoperative hospital stay was 5.9 days. Anatomical laparoscopic left lateral hepatic lobectomy are feasible and safety.
