Aim: This article aimed to investigate the analysis of various methods for eliminating the residual liver cavity after laparoscopic echinococcectomy in patients. Methods: The authors used the following methods of eliminating the residual cavity: omentoplasty (36.8%), abdominalization (30%), drainage of the residual cavity (26.2%), and a combination of omentoplasty with drainage of the residual cavity (7%). Results: In the postoperative period, complications occurred in 2 (3.5%) cases in the form of bile leakage from the residual liver cavity. Conclusions: It is recommended to use abdominalization and omentoplasty when choosing a method for eliminating the residual liver cavity.
