“…The patients with liver cancer who underwent hepatic resection were as follows: the number of testicular tumor was four, leiomyosarcomas were two, metastatic liver tumor of the colon were two, hepatoblastoma were two, cholangiocarcinoma was one, and the other 10 had other types of cancer. Eleven of the total number presented prevailing conditions of liver cirrhosis while the rest were presented without liver cirrhosis (1,(3)(4)(5). Surgical procedures were examined based on cancer grade and liver function in the research studies.…”

“…The evaluation of the type and the spread of a tumor into the inferior vena cava is very important, and has been made better by the availability of the advanced and reliable imaging methods, with a multidetector computed tomography reporting 78% sensitivity and 96% specificity (3). Malignant tumors that invade the inferior vena cava are mostly renal cell cancer cells, and hence can be excisional by thrombectomy techniques or removal of tumor affected cells with an artificial vessel.…”

Invasion of tumor in the liver requires surgical interventions that may reduce the effects or may eliminate the tumor-affected cells. The renewal of the hepatic vein and inferior vena cava has enabled most specialized oncologists and medical specialists to use advanced diagnostic methods in the treatment of the liver tumors. Liver resection has prolonged the lives of many patients and the invention of live donor organ transplants has effectively enabled the use of liver resection in most cancer centers across the world. By reviewing data from 10 articles, 21 surgical analyses were investigated and analyzed for the risks involved in the applications of reconstructions of hepatic vein and inferior vena cava in the surgical liver resection. The postoperative complications and the indications of reconstructions were mentioned. The results indicated that with these surgical procedures, complications are still involved but may be successful for particular patients.
