Isolated laparoscopic resection of the hepatic caudate lobe
View through CrossRef
The caudate lobe (Couinaud's segment 1) is located at the posterior part of the liver. Isolated resection of caudate lobe is a major challenge1,2 especially when it is carried out laparoscopically. We report a case of successful total laparoscopic resection of caudate lobe using the technique of curettage and aspiration3 on a hepatic hemangioma which measured 7 cm ×5 cm. As far as we know, this is the first report from Asia on isolated laparoscopic resection of the hepatic caudate lobe.
