AB Surgical  resection  is  the  primary  treatment  for  hepatic  malignancies.  Resection  may  be  indicated  for  a  variety  of  benign  and  malignant  liver  tumors.  The  most  common  malignant  tumors  include  hepatocellular  carcinoma,  intrahepatic  cholangiocarcinoma,  and  metastatic  colorectal  cancer.  In  the  Western  world,  liver  metastases  are  more  common  than  primary  liver  tumors.  A  comprehensive  evaluation  of  the  overall  health  status,  oncologic  appropriateness,  and  anatomic  resectability  is  critical  to  appropriate  patient  selection.  A  lesion  is  considered  resectable  if  negative  margins  can  be  obtained  while  leaving  an  adequate  amount  of  functional  liver  parenchyma  with  hepatic  arterial  and  portal  venous  inflow,  venous  outflow,  and  biliary  drainage.
