The portal inflow-oriented right intersectional plane does not coincide with the RHV-oriented plane in most cases. The cranial part of the actual transection plane becomes hollow, whereas the caudal part is protruded in relation to the RHV. Hepatobiliary surgeons should recognize this complicated transection plane to avoid postoperative complications when performing LT for PHC.
