Since the first laparoscopic cholecystectomy was performed in 1987, the surgical applications of laparoscopy have grown to involve most areas of general surgery. Until recently, however, major liver surgery remained outside of the scope of minimally invasive surgery. Building on advances in laparoscopic equipment, techniques, and ongoing experience in hepatic surgery, major liver resection has been performed laparoscopically in some select centers. At our institute, a safe and standardized approach to minimally invasive major hepatectomy has been developed. This article illustrates the relevant technical maneuvers in the performance of a totally laparoscopic right hepatectomy. Common pitfalls and areas of concern are discussed.
