Abstract

The main problem which is experienced during liver resection still remains bleeding. Further complications include liver failure, hematoma, infections, and bile leakage. Various techniques have been developed for safe and careful dissection of the liver parenchyma. But none of the techniques can achieve complete haemostasis. We are describing prospective comparative study of major liver resection done using harmonic scalpel and the crush-clamp method, during 2011-2013 (3yrs).
