The liver is located in the upper right abdomen of the human body, protected externally by the seventh to eleventh ribs. Unlike most organs, the liver receives blood from two circulatory systems and is accompanied by the biliary system, collectively referred to as the “triple complex.” It is an extremely complex organ, making liver surgery a particularly hazardous and challenging task for surgeons.
Advantages of Laparoscopic Liver Surgery
Our hospital is dedicated to developing minimally invasive liver surgery. Compared with the large incisions of traditional open liver surgery, laparoscopic surgery uses only small abdominal incisions and operates with miniature instruments. Its advantages include:
- Under a high-resolution imaging system, even the smallest liver structures are more clearly visible; combined with intraoperative laparoscopic ultrasound, the location of liver lesions can be more accurately determined.
- The postoperative wound healing period is significantly shorter than that of traditional surgery, and the length of hospital stay can also be reduced.
- It can greatly reduce wound pain and discomfort.
- Postoperative adhesions are also milder.
3D Laparoscopic System
When combined with the 3D imaging system purchased by our hospital, the laparoscope provides imaging as clear as that of open surgery, making the spatial relationships of vessels and bile ducts clearer, ensuring more reliable hemostasis during the operation, and making the overall surgery safer.
If you have any questions, you are welcome to consult the general surgery outpatient clinic. (Minimally invasive surgery still depends on individual conditions and may not be suitable for everyone.)
