  • Title: An isolated caudate lobectomy by the transhepatic approach for hepatocellular carcinoma in cirrhotic liver.
    Author: Yamamoto J, Takayama T, Kosuge T, Yoshida J, Shimada K, Yamasaki S, Hasegawa H.
    Journal: Surgery; 1992 Jun; 111(6):699-702. PubMed ID: 1317613.
    Abstract:
    A new strategy for the treatment of hepatic malignancy located deep in the cirrhotic liver is reported. A 66-year-old man, who had a 3 cm hepatocellular carcinoma in the cranial part of the caudate lobe, underwent an isolated caudate lobectomy. By transecting along the interlobar plane and opening the hepatic hilus anteriorly, we resected almost the entire caudate lobe without loss of the remaining liver parenchyma.
