CAUDATE LOBECTOMY WITH EXTENDED LEFT HEPATECTOMY FOR HUGE HEPATOCELLULAR CARCINOMA IN CAUDATE LOBE

The first affiliated hospital with nanjing medical university, Nanjing, China

This video demonstrated the resection of huge hepatocellular carcinoma in caudate lobe. CT scan showed the tumor compressed the MHV, RHV, and segment 8 as well as very adjacent to IVC and hepatic hilum. Hepatic parenchymal transection was done along left side of the right hepatic vein, and then the left and caudate lobes with tumor were resected. There was no complication in the post-operative period and no tumor recurrence was noted in the follow-up period. Our experience showed that despite a hard-to-approach anatomic location, caudate lobectomy with extended left hepatectomy was technically feasible and safe for the radical surgical resection of huge caudate lobe tumor.
