title: [Surgical strategy for hepatocellular carcinoma of the caudate lobe].
abstract: Liver-cell carcinomas generally occur in cirrhotic livers; their surgery is difficult when they are located in the caudate lobe. After an anatomical summary, the authors propose a topographic classification of these tumors and describe the surgical strategy to be implemented.
