[Clinical and operative aspects of liver resection (author's transl)].
On the basis of our experience in 57 liver resections (hydatid cyst in the liver 22 times, 7 hepatic cysts, 5 liver abscesses, 7 benign and 16 malignant hepatic tumors) a few tentative conclusions are drawn: A reliable diagnosis and assessment of operability is only possible on laparotomy. Echinococcus alveolaris should be operated as radically as possible. Primary hepatic tumors should be removed as well as malignant hepatomas and their metastases. Simultaneous extirpation of the primary tumor and metastases has given encouraging results so far, especially in easily resectable carcinomata of the colon and rectum. Cytostatic followup therapy is absolutely essential in all cases of malignancy.
