“…In 1870, Burns resected a lacerated portion of the liver after a gunshot wound, and in 1879, Buckhardt used packing to arrest hemorrhage from a liver injury (14). In 1885, a formal laparotomy was performed to remove a bullet from the right lobe of the liver and the patient made excellent recovery (5).…”

“…The overall mortality in this series was 18.4%, similar to other reported experience. 3,8 The primary objective of surgery in liver injury is to control hemorrhage, and the operative management can be considered stepwise in ascending order of severity of injury. Fortunately, in the majority of liver injuries, adequate hemostasis can be achieved by approximation of the lacerated liver edges by deep catgut sutures, and this is usually successful in grade I and II injuries.…”

“…The incidence of these mechanisms of injury varies considerably in differing societies. 3 Hemorrhage is the predominant cause of death in liver injury, and the primary aim of surgical management is to control bleeding from the damaged liver. Many techniques have been advocated to manage such patients, and opinion varies concerning these different methods.…”

“…Since the early report of anatomic hepatic resection (right hepatectomy) in Europe by Lortat-Jacob and Robert in 1952 [1], it has evolved extensively with improved outcomes. Most innovations have been to prevent massive hemorrhage, a major cause of death during the early postoperative period entailing a mortality rate of from 25% to 30% [2][3][4][5]. With a better understanding of hepatic anatomy and physiology, including advancements radiology, pharmacology, and anesthesiology; this high mortality has declined to contemporary rate of less than 5% [6][7][8][9].…”
