Comparative study demonstrates benefits of laparoscopic over open minor liver resection in patients with segmental lesions, highlighting anatomical location as a key selection factor.
It is well known that laparoscopic liver surgery can offer advantages over open liver surgery in selected patients. However, what type of procedures can benefit most from a laparoscopic approach has been investigated poorly thus far. The aim of this study is thus to define the extent of advantages of laparoscopic over open liver surgery for lesions in the anterolateral (AL) and posterosuperior (PS) segments.
