Abstract:
Isolated resection of bemangioma in the cau-date lobe is challenging due to the surgical anatomy of caudate lobe. The caudate lobe consists three portions: Spiegel's lobe, paracaval portion and caudate process. Most of the blood supply of caudate lobe is provided by the posterior segmental branches of the portal vein and left hepatic artery. The hepatic venous drainage encompasses a few sizable and several small branches that join the inferior vena cava. Selection of the ideal route for bepatectomy, adequate mobilization of the liver, preparatory placement of band for hepatic vascular occlusion are key factors during the operation.
