title: [Segmental and bisegmental resections of liver in a treatment of malignant neoplasms].
abstract: The news in understanding intrahepatal anatomy, such as radiology contemporary technology making easier segmental and bisegmental access to hepatal resection. This access comprises resection of isolated anatomical segments or a sector of liver which is depends of magnitude of intrahepatal pathological process. After segmental or bisegmental resection of liver, patients were analysed in the period from 15 and 30 days after the operation. Analysis of patients from this period comprise: localisation of tumour in relation on segments, liver test and follow up, technique of resection, intraoperative stream, the period of operation, blood follow up through v. portae, blood loss and quantitative and qualitative analysis of postoperative complications.
  
  
  RESULTS
  between January 2000 and March 2005, sixty two subject were analysed that have been operated on our clinic (segmental or bisegmental resection), because of the metastatic process of liver and hepatocellular carcinoma of liver (HCC). Hospital mortality was 2.1%, with most often mortality in patients with HCC and cirrhosis of liver. High of morbidity from this period were 19,8%. Need for transfusion of blood (fresh erythrocytes) were 1,2 +/- 0,5 U. Patients with HCC had more needs from blood transfusions contrary patients without HCC; 2,9 +/- 1,4 contrary 0,7 +/- 0,28 U (p<0,05). Recidivism of malignant process in hepatal margin were 2,7%.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Segmental hepatal resection is very accurate technique which makes possible complete resection of tumour and in the same time preservation of healthy liver parenchyma. Segmental hepatal resection is especially useful for patients with HCC and patients with recidivism or progress of primary process.
