Laparoscopic Anatomical S4/5/8+S3v Hepatectomy: Umbilical Fissure Approach Combined with Indocyanine Green Fluorescence Imaging
摘要
For tumors located in the central and partially left lateral lobe of the liver without left Glisson pedicle invasion, anatomical central combined with (sub) segment of left lobe hepatectomy is an alternative to extended left hepatectomy (EH), achieving radical resection while preserving more liver parenchyma.
A 40 year-old male presented with hepatic tumor and liver cirrhosis. A three-dimensional model confirmed a tumor in the central lobe (S4/S5/S8) with partial invasion of the ventral subsegment of segment 3(S3v) (Fig.
The operation lasted 270 min with 50 mL of intraoperative blood loss. Histopathology confirmed moderate-to-poorly differentiated hepatocellular carcinoma with negative resection margins. The patient was discharged on postoperative day 8 without any complications.
ConclusionsLaparoscopic anatomical central combined with (sub) segment of left lobe hepatectomy guided by umbilical fissure approach and ICG fluorescence imaging is feasible for complex centrally located hepatocellular carcinoma.
