Robotic-assisted right hepatectomy via anterior approach for intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma

Major hepatic resection, especially right hepatectomy, has been successfully performed by specialized hepatobiliary centers using the robotic platform with low morbidity, conversion rates and outcomes comparable to laparoscopic and open surgery. The authors report a case of robotic-assisted right hepatectomy done for intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma using anterior approach, after right portal vein embolisation for future liver remnant volume enhancement.
