title: [Tumor resections in the liver].
abstract: Over a 16-year period 54 patients presented with primary malignant liver tumours: 10 (18.5%) were considered inoperable, 44 underwent laparotomy. Nineteen (35%) turned out to be inoperable. A resection with curative intention was performed 25 times (47%) (11 right or extended right and 2 left hemihepatectomies, 12 mono- or bisegmentectomies). Hospital mortality was 8% (n = 2). The median survival time of those who died following resection was 22 months. Four patients have survived for more than 5 years, and three of them are still free of recurrence (5 year survival rate: 17% excl. hospital mortality).
