Abstract:
Objective To investigate the safety and feasibility of laparoscopic hepatic left lateral lobectomy. Methods Five cases of liver cancer, 4 cases of hepatic hemangioma, and 2 cases with suspected liver tumors were included in this series. Tumors were all located at left lateral lobe, with a diameter less than 10?cm. Tumors were resected by laparoscopy under a combination of pneumoperitoneum and non-pneumoperitoneum, with hand assistance through a mini-incision. Several manoeures were used for the dissection of liver tissue, including microwave coagulation, ultrasonic dissection, tainium clips clamping, rotating suction, endogia ligation. ResultThe procedure was successful in all cases with the operation time ranging from 1.5?h to 6?h, and bleeding was 50?ml to 500?ml. The hospitalization time were from 5?d to 15?d. ConclusionLaparoscopic liver resection is safe and feasible for the left liver lateral lobe tumor when the diameter is less than 10?cm, and not involving surrounding organs.
