Abstract

Resection of subsegments, segments of lobes of the liver in anatomic borders are possible. Extensive mobilisation of the liver, operation with blood inflow interruption by a tourniquet, and apparative aids for liver dissection make this easier. Intraoperative ultrasound scanning is helpful. Early and late outcome in the management of benign and malignant tumors and metastases of the liver is described. The rupture of the liver requires well-defined therapy and determination. Packing of the liver or other operative procedures in the treatment of rupture depend on the experience of the surgeon.
