NCT01567631

Brief Summary

The purpose of this research is to compare the classical procedure with intrahepatic Glisson's approach for laparoscopic anatomical hepatectomy. The validity, feasibility and limitations were assessed objectively through our clinical prospective study. The investigators expect laparoscopic anatomical hepatectomy with intrahepatic Glisson's approach is safe, effective and feasible.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of participants with operation complication

    Operation time, intraoperative blood loss, volume of blood transfusion, complications and mortality, postoperative liver function were collected and analysed to evaluate the safety of the operation.

    Duration hospitalization(an expected average of 8 days)

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of participants with abnormal liver function or discomfort symptoms induced by the operation

    up to 3 years postoperation

Study Arms (2)

intrahepatic Glisson's approach

EXPERIMENTAL
Procedure: intrahepatic Glisson's approach

classical hepatectomy

ACTIVE COMPARATOR
Procedure: classical hepatectomy

Interventions

Forty patients with liver disease were selected and divided into intrahepatic Glission's group as described in the detailed description.Total laparoscopic hepatectomy with intrahepatic Glisson's approach were performed. Operation began with division of liver ligaments, liver mobilization, followed by intrahepatic access to the Glissonian pedicle (containing arterial, portal, and bile duct branches ). A endoscopic stapler devices was used for Glissonian pedicle cutting and suture. Liver parenchyma was divided by harmonic scalpel combined with vascular stapler. The specimen was extracted through suprapubic incision.

intrahepatic Glisson's approach

Forty patients with liver disease were selected and divided into classical laparoscopic hepatectomy group as described in the detailed description.Total laparoscopic anatomical hepatectomy with classical procedure were performed.The initial step is to dissect hepatic portal and expose the liver artery, portal Vein branch and the bile duct. Then endoscopic stapler devices were used to cut the canal mentioned above. Final step is to divide the liver parenchyma along the following ischemic delineation.
