Abstract: Associating liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy (ALPPS) can induce accelerated regeneration of future liver remnant (FLR) and provide the opportunity of radical resection for previously inoperable patients with liver cancer, which has been considered to be one of the most important breakthroughs in liver surgery during the 21st century. It is of great significance to fully understand the mechanism of accelerated liver regeneration induced by ALPPS. This article comprehensively reviews the research progress in this field during the past 10 years.
