Abstract: Portal vein embolization （PVE） can induce atrophy of the embolized lobe and compensatory regeneration of the non-embolized lobe. However， due to inadequate regeneration of future liver remnant （FLR） after PVE， some patients remain unsuitable for hepatectomy after PVE. In recent years， liver venous deprivation （LVD）， which combines PVE with hepatic vein embolization （HVE）， has induced enhanced FLR regeneration. Compared with associating liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy （ALPPS）， LVD triggers faster and more robust FLR regeneration， with lower incidence rate of postoperative complications and mortality rate. By reviewing related articles on LVD， this article introduces the effectiveness of LVD and analyzes the differences and safety of various technical paths， and it is believed that LVD is a safe and effective preoperative pretreatment method.
