Parenchyma Sparing Anatomic Liver Resections (Bi- and Uni-Segmentectomies) for Liver Tumours in Children-A Single-Centre Experience.

Unlabelled: a single-centre experience in bi- and uni-segmentectomies for primary liver tumours in children.

Methods: This study included 23 patients that underwent (bi)segmentectomy. There were 15 malignant tumours (hepatoblastoma-13 patients), 7 benign tumours, and 1 calcifying nested stromal epithelial tumour.

Case Report: Cytoreductive Surgery and Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy Application in Intraperitoneally Disseminated Inflammatory Myofibroblastic Tumor and in the Youngest Patient in the World: New Indication and Modification of Technique.

Peritoneal metastases occur in cancers that spread to the peritoneal cavity and indicate the advanced stage of the disease. In children they are mainly seen in sarcomas, Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors and primary disseminated ovarian tumors. Inflammatory Myofibroblastic Tumor (IMT) is a very rare lesion, characterized by an unpredictable clinical course.

Laparoscopic resection of liver tumors in children.

Background: Laparoscopy for the resection of liver tumors in children has remained undeveloped in comparison to adults. Most of the indications for pediatric laparoscopic hepatic surgery have been limited to diagnostic laparoscopy (biopsy). Over the past ten years, however, laparoscopic liver resections for pediatric hepatic diseases have been performed successfully, and many case reports have been published.
