Figure 4 Representative case of a 34-year-old woman diagnosed with a giant hemangioma scheduled to undergo right trisectionectomy.
A: CT volumetry showing the tumor volume as 2818 mL and parenchymal hepatic resection rate as 80.0%; B: 3D CT/99mTc-galactosyl human serum albumin single-photon emission computed tomography fusion image showing the functional hepatic resection rate as 60.8%. The patients underwent right trisectionectomy without preoperative portal vein embolization. She recovered without postoperative liver failure or any morbidity.
