title: [Laparoscopic resection of a liver metastasis from segment VII. Case report].
abstract: The technique and clinical results of liver surgery are constantly evolving in recent years, and this development felt most intensely in the field of laparoscopic liver surgery. Based on the results of comparative studies reported to date, laparoscopic surgery is not inferior to open surgery. Although a very small percentage of liver resections are performed with laparoscopic technique, clearly it has a role in oncological surgery. The minor, major, anatomical, or even multi-stage liver resections can be performed with laparoscopy. The previously general recommendation, that lesions in the front segments of the liver are recommended for the minimally invasive technique is currently outdated. The authors present the history of a 70-year-old female, who underwent complex oncosurgical treatment of a locally advanced rectum carcinoma and a pure laparoscopic resection of a solitary hepatic metastasis of segment VII. With this case report the authors want to underline that malignant lesions in the posterior segments of the liver can be removed safely with laparoscopy.
