Laparoscopic procedures are minimally invasive, and accomplish the same goal as traditional open procedures. The goal of liver resection is to remove a liver mass (benign or cancerous) safely and efficiently. Compared to an open procedure, a laparoscopic approach provides patients with smaller incisions, which allows for a faster recovery and better cosmetic results. Patients often have less pain and are able to get back to their normal activity sooner. After the patient is put to sleep with general anaesthesia, anywhere from three to seven small incisions are made to remove the liver mass. Depending on the number and locations of the lesions, and how much liver needs to be removed, the procedure can take anywhere from one to seven hours. Patients are encouraged to maintain a physically active lifestyle and minimize their alcohol intake in the weeks leading up to surgery. Patients will meet with their surgeons to go over the specific steps that are required prior to the procedure.
