Abstract:
The low resectability rate of recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma,abdominal adhesion and anatomical variation caused by the original hepatectomy increase the difficulty and risk of liver re-resection,which hampers the development of minimally invasive management of posthepatectomy hepatocellular carcinoma recurrence. In recent years,with the update of laparoscopic equipment and the accumulation of surgeon experience, preliminary exploration of laparoscopic liver re-resection for patients with posthepatectomy hepatocellular carcinoma recurrence has begun. In patients with strict indications,laparoscopic reresection can significantly reduce the incidence of perioperative complications and achieve similar survival results as the open surgery. However,as the treatment is still in the exploratory stage,it is recommended to perform only under the strict case selection of medical centers with rich experience in open and laparoscopic liver resection. High quality clinical research is still needed to promote its standardization.
