Laparoscopic hepatectomy is a feasible surgical option for liver resections, offering comparable outcomes to open procedures. Further research is needed to confirm results for malignant tumors and metastases.

Area of Science:

  • Minimally invasive surgery
  • Hepatobiliary surgery
  • Surgical oncology

Context:

  • Laparoscopic liver resection is an evolving surgical technique.
  • Over 200 laparoscopic hepatectomies were reported between 1991 and 2001.
  • Resections were performed for both malignant and benign liver tumors.

Purpose:

  • To review current indications and techniques for laparoscopic liver resections.
  • To assess the outcomes of laparoscopic hepatectomy by analyzing international literature.
  • To evaluate the feasibility and safety of minimally invasive liver surgery.

Summary:

  • Laparoscopic hepatectomy demonstrates feasibility with low conversion rates (7%).
  • Morbidity was 16.1% and mortality 0.54%, comparable to open surgery.

  • Mean hospital stay averaged 7.7 days.

    • Impact:

    • Laparoscopic hepatectomy offers a viable alternative to open surgery for selected patients.
    • Further randomized trials are necessary to validate outcomes for complex cases like metastases.
    • Advancements in technology and techniques will likely drive future adoption of laparoscopic liver surgery.
