Area of Science:

  • Hepatobiliary Surgery
  • Surgical Oncology
  • Liver Cancer Treatment

Context:

  • Hepatoma (liver cancer) in segment IX presents unique surgical challenges.
  • Traditional surgical approaches may involve significant risks and complications.

Purpose:

  • To evaluate the safety and efficacy of segmentectomy for hepatoma located in segment IX.
  • To report the procedural details and outcomes of this surgical technique.

Summary:

  • Eleven patients with segment IX hepatoma underwent segmentectomy without interrupting liver blood flow.
  • The procedure demonstrated low intraoperative blood loss, no perioperative deaths, and short hospital stays.
  • Postoperative outcomes were favorable, with 10 out of 11 patients achieving tumor-free status during a median follow-up of 17 months.
