Hepatic neoplasms: Surgically relevant segmental anatomy and imaging techniques

摘要: With advances in imaging and surgical techniques, the diagnosis treatment of primary secondary liver neoplasms have improved. Advances contributed to early detection tumors allowed more precise preoperative characterization localization lesions. Refinements technique permitted extensive resections, while at same time placing even greater importance on accurate tumor. Presurgical planning requires definition extent tumor vis-a-vis hepatic segmental anatomy. The goal this essay is discuss anatomy liver, types resections possible, strengths weaknesses various techniques used assessment potential candidates for resection. Staging malignant technical details are not discussed.
