Abstract:
The development of liver surgery can be divided into several stages, including wedge liver resection, regular segmental liver resection and anatomical liver resection. With the development of biomedical sciences and information technology, liver surgery has developed into precise hepatectomy. The goals of precise hepatectomy are minimal invasion, maximal liver protection and best rehabilitation, This is mainly achieved through accurate preoperative evaluation, precise surgical planning, sophisticated surgical procedure and postoperative management. Its application significantly improves prognosis and quality of life of patients. This paper summarizes the concept and surgical technique of precise liver resection.
