Abstract

The anatomic relationship between bile duct and portal vein/hepatic artery is complicated in perihilar region. As perihilar surgery is technically demanding, both surgical safety and long-term outcome are not satisfactory. Under the guidance of precision surgery, three kinds of technique,including visualization, quantitation and controlization, are focused. Meanwhile, three principles including vessel priority,bleeding control and limit point control are introduced to improve the development of perihilar surgery. In addition,some new types of operation are potentially important and warranted in the near future.
