Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

LLR was applied for tumors located at the lower edge and lateral segments of the liver that could be resected more easily than posterosuperior segments. With the development of technology and the growing experience of hepatobiliary surgeons, LLR has been expanded to major liver resections, anatomical resections, and donor hepatectomies by skilled surgeons. However, due to the concerns over the risk of operative bleeding, tumor seeding and positive resection margin, the true benefit of LLR remains unclear across surgical community.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The 2nd International Consensus Conference on Laparoscopic Liver Resection (ICCLLR) was held in Morioka, Japan, in 2014. The new recommendations of the ICCLLR state that the outcomes of LLR are not inferior than OLR regarding to operative mortality rate and margin negativity, and are superior in decreasing postoperative complications, blood loss, and the length of the postoperative hospital stay. However, it is not clear that whether LLR is able to alleviate the impairment of liver function after hepatic resection, and there is no RCTs to compare the short and long outcomes between LLR and OLR.
