    Area of Science:

    • Hepatobiliary surgery
    • Surgical instrumentation
    • Minimally invasive techniques

    Background:

    • Hepatic parenchymal dissection is critical in liver surgery.
    • Minimizing blood loss during hepatic operations is a major surgical challenge.
    • Existing dissection methods may have limitations in precision and safety.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce a new instrument designed for hepatic parenchymal dissection.
    • To evaluate the instrument's potential in minimizing blood loss during liver surgery.
    • To assess the instrument's usability and cost-effectiveness.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of a novel suction dissection instrument for liver tissue.
    • The instrument is designed for precise dissection around critical hepatic structures (vessels and ducts).
