Abstract:
The use of laparoscopic liver resections for benign and malignant diseases has spread worldwide.As in open liver surgery,anatomical orientation and the ability to control intraoperative challenges as bleeding have to be combined with expertise in advanced laparoscopic techniques.We provide an overview regarding the literature on laparoscopic liver resection for benign and malignant liver tumors with the aim to discuss the current standards and define remaining challenges.Laparoscopic liver resection is feasible and safe in selected patients and experienced hands.The minimal invasive approach offers benefits in perioperative shortterm outcome without compromising oncological outcomes compared to open liver resections.Further randomized trials are needed to formally prove these statements and to define the optimal indication and techniques for the individual patient.
