Application value of mixed reality in hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma.
World J Gastrointest Surg

Article Synopsis
- Mixed reality (MR) technology improves liver surgery accuracy by providing better visualization of anatomy and tumor locations, especially since the rise of 5G communication.
- A study evaluated 95 patients who underwent hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma, comparing outcomes between 38 MR-assisted surgeries and 57 traditional surgeries.
- Results showed that MR-assisted surgeries had shorter operation times, less bleeding, fewer postoperative complications, and shorter hospital stays, indicating MR's potential benefits in liver surgery.

Purpose: Clear delineation between tumors and normal tissues is ideal for real-time surgical navigation imaging. We investigated applying indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence imaging navigation using an intraoperative administration method in liver resection.
Methods: Fifty patients who underwent liver resection were divided into two groups based on clinical situation and operative purpose.
[Clinical analysis of donor hepatectomy in living donor liver transplantation: report of 74 cases].

Objective: To evaluate the living donor selection, donor hepatectomy technique, and surgical complication in living donor liver transplantation.
Methods: From June 2007 to July 2008, 74 consecutive cases living donor hepatectomy were performed by the same surgical team. Seventy-four donors (64 males and 10 females) with a mean age of 29.
Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on a treatment algorithm for donor middle hepatic vein (MHV) in right lobe living donor liver transplantation (LDLT), assessing its impact on the safety of both donors and recipients.
- Data from 73 LDLT cases were analyzed, comparing various factors like donor/recipient demographics, graft weights, and post-operative complications to evaluate the effectiveness of the MHV treatment algorithm.
- Results showed no significant issues for donors, with one recipient experiencing complications, but overall, the algorithm was deemed safe for both groups.
