A new report from the Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery in Yunnan, China, explores the efficiency and safety of laparoscopic left hemihepatectomy using intrathecal and extrathecal Glissonean pedicle techniques. The study analyzed the clinical data of 49 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma who underwent laparoscopic left hemihepatectomy. The results showed that both techniques were effective and safe, but the extrathecal approach was found to be more feasible, simplifying the procedure and shortening the operation time. The research concludes that the extrathecal technique is more efficient. [Extracted from the article]

A recent study conducted at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University compared the use of bicarbonate Ringer's solution and lactated Ringer's solution in patients who underwent laparoscopic right hemihepatectomy. The study found that patients who received bicarbonate Ringer's solution had improved outcomes, including lower lactic acid concentrations, improved pH levels, and better liver function. Additionally, these patients had a shorter hospital stay and a lower incidence of complications. The study was registered at clinicalTrials.gov and more information can be obtained from the Department of Anesthesiology at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University.

A recent study conducted at Maastricht University Medical Center compared the outcomes of laparoscopic versus open major liver resection (hemihepatectomy) for primary or metastatic cancer. The study found that laparoscopic hemihepatectomy resulted in a shorter time to functional recovery compared to open surgery. Additionally, patients who underwent laparoscopic surgery reported better quality of life and a shorter time to adjuvant systemic therapy. The study concluded that the laparoscopic approach is a viable option for patients undergoing hemihepatectomy, with no adverse impact on cancer outcomes observed. [Extracted from the article]

A study conducted at Ningbo University in Zhejiang, China compared the safety and short-term outcomes of laparoscopic and open approaches for right hemihepatectomy in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The study included 57 patients with HCC, with 23 in the laparoscopic group and 34 in the open group. The results showed that laparoscopic right hemihepatectomy with the anterior approach technique had similar safety and comparable short-term outcomes as open surgery. The study concluded that laparoscopic hepatectomy could be a viable alternative to traditional open liver resection for HCC patients. [Extracted from the article]
