Laparoendoscopic single-site liver resection: a preliminary report of 12 cases

Abstract: Our preliminary data show that LESS liver resection is safe and feasible for selected patients, with potential benefits that include a fast recovery, light pain, and cosmetically acceptable scarring. However, this procedure requires advanced instruments and complicated laparoscopic techniques, with a risk of intraoperative bleeding and postoperative bile leakage.

“…Easily accessible, superficial lesions in segments II, III, IV, V, and VIII [20, 28] are preferable, even though bigger or more technically challenging resections for less favourably located tumours have been described with increased experience in the technique (Table 1). With regard to the size of the lesions, most groups adopted a cut-off of <2.5–5 cm in diameter for malignant and <10 cm for benign tumours [12, 14, 2022, 27, 28, 31]. Resection of larger malignant lesions has also been described [15, 20, 22]; however the potential extension of the incision for extraction of large specimen defeats the purpose of SILS [27].…”

“…Resection of larger malignant lesions has also been described [15, 20, 22]; however the potential extension of the incision for extraction of large specimen defeats the purpose of SILS [27]. Other contraindications include vascular or extrahepatic involvement and morbid obesity [20, 27, 28]. Even though a history of upper abdominal surgery is a relative contraindication for some groups [28], SILS liver resections in patients with previous hepatectomies [22], as well as a synchronous liver and colonic resection [22], have been described.…”
