Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the feasibility of laparoscopic left lateral hepatic lobectomy(Ⅱand Ⅲ segments)for the treatment of primary hepatic carcinoma(PHC).Methods From January 2002 to June 2007,23 patients with PHC were treated by laparoscopic left lateral hepatic lobectomy.During the operation,after the portal blood stream was blocked by portal clamps,left lateral lobectomy was performed by using electric or ultrasonic scalpel.Then,laparoscopic hepatic suture was carried out,and fibrin sealant was used to cover the surgical surface.Results Laparoscopic left lateral hepatic lobectomy was completed in all the 23 cases with a mean operation time of(131.7?33.9)min and mean blood loss of(297.9?124.0)ml.All the patients recovered well without postoperative complications and were discharged(5.5?1.3)days after the operation.Among the cases,20(20/23,87%)were followed up for 2-24 months(2-12 months for 9 cases,and 13-24 months for 11 cases),during which no patients died,3 patients had recurrent hepatic carcinoma.Conclusions Laparoscopic left lateral hepatic lobectomy is feasible for PHC.The method should be the first choice for left lateral PHC because it is safe and minimally invasive.
