This book describes the anatomy of the liver and techniques involved in split-liver, living donor transplantation. Tracking progress in general laparoscopic surgery techniques, the authors detail use of the posterior approach in laparoscopic liver surgery.

The objective of The Posterior Intrahepatic Approach in Liver Surgery is to describe techniques, as the more routine application today of split liver, living donor transplantation has continued to teach us more about the anatomy of the liver and its applications. Furthermore, laparoscopic surgery in general has grown space and it is important to show the application of the posterior approach in laparoscopic liver surgery as well.
