aimed to discuss the short term surgical outcomes of Anatomical versus Non anatomical laparoscopic Liver resection for Liver tumors.
This study aimed to be both prospective and retrospective study including the cases of laparoscopic liver resection that was done and will be done during the period from December 2021 to June 2025. This study will include cohort of patients who met the eligible criteria.
