LAPAROSCOPIC CAUDATE RESECTION: HOW TO SAFELY MANAGE THE SPIEGEL/IVC INTERFACE WHEN THE HEPATOCAVAL SPACE IS OBLITERATED OR FUSED

Date
May 19, 2024

BACKGROUND
MIS caudate lobectomy can be linked with important bleeding due to its abutment of major vessels. The risk could magnify with a fused hepatocaval space
PATIENT
68-year-old female with colorectal adenocarcinoma having a liver metastasis in the caudate lobe. Received 4 cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy
TECHNIQUE
3-D liver and port site modeling was performed. After control of portal venous branches, the hepatocaval space was dissected. Using scissors rather than energy reduced the risk of inadvertent thermal injury to the IVC
CONCLUSION
Virtual hepatectomy facilitates surgical planning. Low central venous pressure and management of hepatic vein branches are key for a successful dissection
