Liver resection in stage 0-A HCC in segments 7/8: a propensity-matched analysis comparing open, laparoscopic, and robotic approach.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Both laparoscopic hepatectomy (LH) and robotic hepatectomy (RH) have been performed for tumors in nearly all liver segments. However, few studies have compared the outcomes of patients who underwent open hepatectomy (OH), LH and RH for the treatment of Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC) stage 0-A HCC in S7/8.

Methods

The clinical data of patients who underwent S7/8 resection for the treatment of BCLC stage 0-A HCC in the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University from July 2017 to July 2023 were retrospectively collected. To minimize selection bias, propensity score matching (PSM) analysis was performed using American Society of Anesthesiology (ASA), tumor size, body mass index (BMI), alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), tumor location, age, number of tumors, p
