This video demonstrates partial hepatectomy through a robotic approach for multifocal hepatocellular cancer with intraoperative ultrasound guidance. Umbilical camera port, robotic port, and assistant port locations are demonstrated. Right liver was mobilized back to the inferior vena cava using robotic instruments. Robotic vessel sealer and monopolar electrocautery were utilized to resect segments V, VI, and VII of the liver, encompassing all lesions. Specimen was extracted through the lateral assistant port site after enlarging it in a cosmetically acceptable manner. Estimated blood loss was under 200cc, margins were negative, and the patient underwent an uncomplicated and full recovery.
