Abstract
PDF - The use of laparoscopic liver resection has rapidly increased. According to two international consensus meetings, certain resection methods are already considered standard procedures for liver resection, especially for small malignant tumors located on the liver surface or in the anterolateral segments of the liver. However, further studies and international consensus meetings are required for laparoscopic procedures to be accepted as standard procedures for highly complex hepatectomies, major hepatectomies, anatomical resections, and laparoscopic donor hepatectomies. Technical refinements are necessary because many studies have shown that negative outcomes also affect long-term outcomes after laparoscopic liver resection for hepatocellular carcinoma.

Abstract
PDF
- In Korea, radiofrequency ablation (RFA) of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is most widely used under ultrasonography (US) guidance. With the technical development, small HCCs in challenging locations can be ablated effectively. Both fusion imaging and contrast-enhanced US is useful for identifying small inconspicuous HCCs on conventional US, thereby enable us to conduct successful RFA. Artificial ascites can enhance ultrasonic window and is helpful in avoiding thermal injury to the surrounding organs. Laparoscopy is also useful for guidance of RFA for subcapsular HCCs which are difficult to approach percutaneously. (J Liver Cancer 2014;14:89-96)
