Laparoscopic Liver Resection

Liver resection removes part of the liver, typically for liver cancer, metastatic tumors, or benign lesions like hemangiomas. Symptoms include abdominal pain, jaundice, weight loss, or fatigue. The laparoscopic approach uses small incisions and a camera to remove diseased liver tissue, preserving healthy portions. This minimally invasive method reduces recovery time and complications compared to open surgery. Risks include bleeding, infection, or liver dysfunction. Post-surgery, patients require close monitoring of liver function and a tailored diet to support regeneration. Recovery takes weeks to months, with follow-ups to detect recurrence, especially in cancer cases. Chemotherapy or ablation may complement surgery. The procedure is effective for early-stage tumors, improving survival rates. The liver’s regenerative capacity aids recovery, but long-term care focuses on liver health and avoiding recurrence.
