Laparoscopically Limited Anatomic Liver Resections: A Single-Center Analysis for Oncologic Outcomes of the Conceptual Procedure.

Background: Limited anatomic resections (LARs), such as segmentectomies, performed using a fully laparoscopic approach, have gained popularity for liver malignancies. However, the oncologic efficacy of laparoscopic LARs (Lap-LARs) needs further investigation. This cohort study evaluated the oncologic outcomes of Lap-LAR for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and colorectal liver metastasis (CRLM).

Comparing the accuracy of positive and negative indocyanine green staining in guiding laparoscopic anatomical liver resection: protocol for a randomised controlled trial.

Introduction: Knowledge of the clinical liver anatomy has evolved with advanced imaging modalities and laparoscopic surgery. Therefore, precise anatomical resection knowledge has become the standard treatment for primary and secondary liver cancer. Segmentectomy, a parenchymal-preserving approach, is regarded as an option for anatomical resections in patients with impaired liver.

Latest Findings on Minimally Invasive Anatomical Liver Resection.

Minimally invasive liver resection (MILR) is being widely utilized owing to recent advancements in laparoscopic and robot-assisted surgery. There are two main types of liver resection: anatomical (minimally invasive anatomical liver resection (MIALR)) and nonanatomical. MIALR is defined as a minimally invasive liver resection along the respective portal territory.

Preoperative blood circulation modification prior to pancreaticoduodenectomy in patients with celiac trunk occlusion: Two case reports.

Background: Celiac trunk stenosis or occlusion is a common condition observed in patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). The risk of upper abdominal organ ischemia or failure increases if the blood circulation in the celiac arterial system is not maintained after the surgery.

Case Summary: We present two cases of elderly patients with distal cholangiocarcinoma and celiac trunk occlusion who underwent PD.

Resection margin status in laparoscopic liver resection for colorectal liver metastases: literature review and future perspectives.

Introduction: Laparoscopic liver resection (LLR) has made remarkable progress over the past two decades, providing superior perioperative outcomes to open liver resection (OLR). The pros and cons of LLR for colorectal liver metastases (CRLMs) have been discussed along with the debate regarding optimal resection margins for CRLMs.

Evidence Acquisition: A literature review has been carried out (Pubmed and Embase) focusing on the resection margin status (R status) after LLR for CRLMs.

Hartmann pouch herniation in Calot's triangle: A case report.

Introduction: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is one of the most frequent operations performed around the world. Some pathological findings are particularly rare and difficult to diagnose preoperatively. Here, we report a case of a patient who presented to our hospital with calculus cholecystitis with a unique Intraoperative finding of Hartmann pouch herniation through hepatocystic triangle.

Simultaneous small and large bowel obstruction as a consequence of internal hernia: A case report.

Introduction: Intestinal obstruction ascribed to internal hernia is quite rare, especially in adults. There are no differentiating features in the presentation of intestinal obstruction due to internal hernia as compared to other causes. Delay in the diagnosis of this condition carries a considerable risk especially in a virgin abdomen.
