Description
Summary:The surgical resection of liver cancer consists of anatomical and non-anatomical resection, and controversy still exists over the application of these two procedures in clinical practice. This article introduces the technical points of anatomical and non-anatomical hepatectomy and analyzes the effect of anatomical hepatectomy on disease-free survival rate and overall survival rate, as well as the application of non-anatomical hepatectomy in liver cancer patients with underlying liver disease. The mechanism of recurrence after hepatectomy for liver cancer is also discussed. At last, this article summarizes the safety of anatomical hepatectomy and the advantages of non-anatomical hepatectomy and laparoscopic hepatectomy. As for liver cancer patients with liver cirrhosis, selection of the method for surgical resection of liver cancer should be based on a comprehensive evaluation of liver function and tumor condition.
