Abstract
Conclusions Performing caudate hepatectomy with negative microscopic margins remains a technical challenge because of the proximity of major biliary and vascular structures. Although caudate resection of the liver can be performed safely, concomitant major vascular reconstruction substantially increases the mortality of the procedure.Keywords
