title: Limited resection of the right hemiliver based on reclassification of the right anterior segment of the liver.
abstract: We proposed that the anterior segment was divided into ventral and dorsal segments, and reclassified the right hemiliver into three segments; ventral, dorsal, and posterior segments. According to our classification we successfully performed limited resection of the right hemiliver.
