Development and prospect of laparoscopic living donor hepatectomy
Journal Title: Journal of Surgery : Concepts & Practice - Year 2024, Vol 29, Issue 2
Abstract
In recent years, benifit by the advancement of minimally invasive surgical techniques, laparoscopic living donor hepatectomy（LLDH） has experienced rapid development. Since this technology was first reported in 2002, major transplant centers have been continuously developing and accumulating experience. Compared with traditional open surgery, LLDH has advantages such as less trauma, less intraoperative bleeding, and lower incidence of postoperative complications. However, at the same time, there were certain difficulties in managing, such as, warm ischemia time, overcoming learning curves, avoiding biliary complications, and controlling bleeding, still needed to be solved. The application of some new technologies and surgical methods also made this technology more efficient and safer. This article discussed the development history, surgical difficulties and complications, and technical improvements of LLDH, and looked forward to the future prospects and development directions of this technology.
