Abstract

The increased experience in liver resection with vascular reconstruction to achieve negative margins for different malignancies has improved short-term outcome. Nevertheless, improvements in the preoperative study and in the perioperative management, morbidity rate remains high. Strategies as ex vivo resection, in situ cold perfusion and venovenous bypass allow treatment of tumors involving the inferior vena cava and hepatic veins. If portal vein resection and reconstruction have become an accepted applied technique, hepatic artery resection is still performed only in limited high-experience centers.
