Abstract
A 66-year-old man with hepatocellular carcinoma successfully underwent extended right hepatic lobectomy and combined resection of the right adrenal gland, right dome of the diaphragm and inferior vena cava including reconstruction with an expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (EPTFE) tube under a centrifugal pump driven veno-venous bypass without heparin. After 12 months, the graft was patent and there was no sign of recurrence.
