Abstract Background Laparoscopic liver resection (LLR) has been progressively developed along the past two decades. Liver surgery was one of the last frontiers reached by minimally invasive surgery. Surgical technique and equipment evolved to overcome technical limitations, making laparoscopic liver resections (LLR) safe and feasible. Surgeons developed skills in a stepwise approach, beginning with low complexity operations for benign diseases and reaching high-complexity surgeries for malignant cases and living donor organ harvesting. Objective s: The aim of the study is to compare short term results of laparoscopic versus open hepatectomy regarding to intra operative details and post-operative management and complications for achieving a safe hepatic resection for treatment of HCC in cirrhotic patients. Patients and Methods In this prospective study, a comparison between laparoscopic resection and open resection was done to compare short-term results between laparoscopic and open liver resection. This study was conducted on 30 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. 15 patients (50%) were treated by laparoscopic liver resection (Group A) while the other 15 patients (50%) were treated by open liver resection (Group B). Results Regarding the demographic data, the presence of past history of medical condition and the preoperative laboratory results, no statistical significance was found. The mean operative time has statistically significant difference between the 2 groups, with decreased operative time in the laparoscopic group (P < 0.001). The mean blood loss has no statistically significant difference relations between the 2 groups, (P = 0.866) with conversion rate of (13.3%) happened in two cases. Conclusion Laparoscopic liver resection is a safe and feasible treatment option for HCC in cirrhotic patient needing minor resection at laparoscopic segments (II, III, IVa,V,VI). Laparoscopic liver resection for HCC has superior short- term and comparable oncological outcomes to open liver resection. LLR should be performed for carefully selected patients and by an expert surgical team.

Abstract The number of elderly patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) requiring surgical treatment has been continuously increasing. This study aimed to examine the safety and feasibility of laparoscopic liver resection (LLR) versus open liver resection (OLR) for HCC in elderly patients at our institution in Japan.Between 2010 and 2018, LLR and OLR were performed in 80 and 138 elderly patients (>70 years) who were diagnosed with HCC, respectively. Propensity score matching (PSM) analysis with covariates of baseline characteristics was applied. Intra- and postoperative data were evaluated in both groups.After PSM, 56 patients who underwent LLR and OLR, respectively, were compared. No significant differences in demographic, clinical data, and operative times were observed. Blood loss (OLR: 327 mL; LLR: 50 mL; P< 0.001), length of postoperative hospital stay (OLR: 12 days; LLR: 7 days; P< 0.001), and time to start oral intake (OLR: 2 days; LLR: 1 day; P< 0.001) were significantly lower and shorter in the LLR group than in the OLR group. The incidence of complications over Clavien-Dindo class IIIa was similar between both groups.Our results suggest that advanced age alone is not a contraindication, and LLR can be a treatment option for elderly patients with HCC.
