Area of Science:

  • Hepatobiliary Surgery
  • Minimally Invasive Procedures
  • Surgical Oncology

Background:

  • Laparoscopic liver resection (LLR) is increasingly performed at specialized centers.
  • Technological advancements enhance surgical techniques for liver resections.
  • Minimally invasive approaches offer potential benefits over open liver resection (OLR).

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the efficacy and safety of laparoscopic liver resection (LLR).
  • To compare LLR outcomes with traditional open liver resection (OLR).
  • To discuss the evolving role of LLR in treating liver diseases.

Main Methods:

  • Review of current literature on laparoscopic liver resection techniques.
  • Comparison of outcomes (operative time, blood loss, hospital stay, mortality, morbidity) between LLR and OLR.
  • Analysis of patient selection criteria and limitations for LLR.

Main Results:

  • LLR demonstrates reduced operative time, blood loss, and hospital stay compared to OLR.
  • Postoperative mortality and morbidity rates are equivalent between LLR and OLR.
  • Disease-free and survival rates for LLR in hepatocellular carcinoma and metastatic colon cancer match OLR outcomes.
  • Robotic and single-port surgery show promising early results.

Conclusions:

  • LLR is a feasible and effective approach for various liver lesions, with outcomes comparable to OLR.
  • Careful patient selection is crucial for successful LLR outcomes.
  • LLR is becoming a standard treatment for liver diseases, with ongoing advancements in techniques.
