Area of Science:

  • Hepatobiliary Surgery
  • Surgical Techniques
  • Gastrointestinal Oncology

Background:

  • Porcelain gallbladder requires surgical intervention.
  • Infiltration of the gallbladder bed (liver segments IVb and V) complicates resection.
  • Standard liver resection techniques can be complex for less experienced surgeons.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a simple, safe, and cost-effective technique for nonanatomic liver resection.
  • To address the challenge of resecting porcelain gallbladder infiltrating the liver parenchyma.
  • To provide an accessible method for surgeons with limited liver surgery experience.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized a straight 18-gauge stainless steel multi-use needle (Chang's needle).
  • Performed nonanatomic resection of liver parenchyma involving segments IVb and V.
  • Focused on a simplified approach for gallbladder bed resection.

Main Results:

  • The technique proved to be simple, safe, and cost-effective.
  • Successful resection of porcelain gallbladder infiltrating the liver was achieved.
  • The method is suitable for surgeons with varying levels of liver surgery expertise.

Conclusions:

  • This technique offers a viable solution for nonanatomic liver resections in porcelain gallbladder cases.
  • Chang's needle facilitates a straightforward approach for surgeons, enhancing safety and efficiency.
  • The presented method lowers the barrier to entry for performing complex liver resections.
