A Combined "Hanging Liver Maneuver" and "Intrahepatic Extra-Glissonian Approach" for Anatomical Right Hepatectomy: Technique Standardization, Results, and Correlation With Portal Pedicle Anatomy.

The hanging liver maneuver and intrahepatic extra-Glissonian approach are distinct modalities to facilitate safe anatomical liver resections. This study reports a standardized combination of these techniques focusing on safety, results and correlation with portal pedicle anatomy in oncological patients. Combined hanging liver maneuver and intrahepatic extra-Glissonian approach for anatomic right hepatectomy was described stepwise.

Inner tubing technique used for the treatment of anastomotic aneurism.

The authors report the case of a 66-year-old male patient diagnosed with a pseudoaneurysm of the distal aorto-aortic anastomosis treated with the inner tubing technique. The patient had been operated on 1 year before when he had an aortic prosthesis implanted as treatment for a ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm. The inner tubing technique was developed to facilitate the treatment in bifurcated vascular lesions, where endovascular conventional prosthesis is not available.
