abstract = {Background: To analyze the differences in perioperative outcomes between laparoscopic formal right hepatectomies (RH) and laparoscopic anatomical posterosuperior (PS) resections, including segmentectomies in PS segment SVII and right posterior sectionectomies (segment VI and VII resection).
Methods: A retrospective analysis of all patients undergoing laparoscopic formal RHs and anatomical PS resections, including segmentectomies in PS segment SVII and right posterior sectionectomies (segment VI and VII resection), between January 2010 and August 2017 was performed. The two groups were compared in terms of patients’ characteristics, intraoperative parameters, and short-term outcomes.
Results: Sixty-eight patients were included of which 32 RHs and 36 anatomical PS resections. In the PS resection group, 18 had a segmentectomy of segment VII and 18 had a bisegmentectomy of both segments VI and VII. Patients’ preoperative data were comparable. The lesion size was higher in the RHs (P},
