Y1 - 2018 N1 - T2 - Textbook of Complex General Surgical Oncology AB - Surgical resection is the first-line treatment for selected patients with hepatobiliary malignancies. With refinements in surgical techniques and perioperative patient care, the safety of liver resection has improved dramatically over the decades. Indeed, the mortality rate after major hepatectomy has been reported to be less than 5% in recent years at high-volume hepatobiliary centers.1-3 The most important factor influencing outcomes after liver resection is the surgeon’s knowledge of the relevant anatomy and of basic principles pertaining to the surgical procedure. In this chapter, we review the general principles of hepatobiliary surgery and describe current approaches for safe liver resection.
