Core Tip

Core Tip: Laparoscopic anatomical SVIII resection (LASVIIIR) remains rarely reported due to poor accessibility, difficult exposure, and the deep-lying Glissonean pedicle. In this study, thirty-four patients underwent LASVIIIR via a middle hepatic fissure approach from the side or cranio side and were included. We found that there were no differences regarding postoperative hospital stays for the caudal and cranial side approaches. LASVIIIR remains a challenging operation, but a middle hepatic fissure approach is a reasonable and easy-to-implement technique.
