Long-term and short-term surgical outcomes of single-incision laparoscopic hepatectomy on anterolateral liver segments.

The study demonstrates the safety and feasibility of single-incision laparoscopic liver resection for left lateral sectionectomy and partial hepatectomy for segment 5-6. In selected patients within the group and by experienced surgical team, the SILH technique results in comparable short-term surgical outcomes and long-term oncological outcomes.
