A brief discussion of Glisson pedic-first approach in laparoscopic anatomical hepatectomy / 中华肝胆外科杂志

ABSTRACT

With the continuous in-depth understanding of liver anatomy and the progress of surgical techniques, laparoscopic hepatectomy has been developed rapidly, especially the laparoscopic anatomic hepatectomy has become the most commonly surgical method. The dissection and treatment of liver Glisson pedicle is the core techniques of laparoscopic anatomic hepatectomy. The Glisson hepatic pedicle approach has been widely used in open and laparoscopic anatomical hepatectomy, especially in laparoscopic hepatectomy. The possible advantages over the traditional approach are still under debate, and there is no standard surgical approach for pedicle dissection to date. This article introduces Glisson pedicle approach and the advantages and clinical application of laparoscopic anatomical hepatectomy with Glisson pedicle approach.
