Abstract

Over the past 20 years, laparoscopic liver resection (LLR) has gone through a stirring process of innovation, development, and exploration. LLR nowadays is almost as important as OLR,. As an evolving surgical technique, LLR has its own inherent problems too. Laparoscopic anatomical hepatectomy (LAH), instead of laparoscopic regular hepatectomy, according to our experience, stands for the laparoscopic regional resection of hepatic tumor or hepatic segment(s), based on the regional control of blood supply. In this chapter, we will discuss what is LAH, its advantages and disadvantages and some key techniques.
