Abstract:
Although some authors believe that laparoscopy is contraindicated for the posterior hepatic segments, we believe that lesions in these segments are actually an indication for the minimally invasive approach. This video will illustrate the pertinent issues regarding instrument selection, trochar placement, intraoperative monitoring and steps necessary to perform laparoscopic resection of the posterior hepatic segments using totally laparoscopic techniques.
