Core Tip	The clinical outcomes of laparoscopic hepatectomy (LH) in patients with a history of upper abdominal surgery and repeat hepatectomy were evaluated. Of 80 patients who underwent pure LH, 22 had prior upper abdominal surgeries, and 12 underwent repeat hepatectomy. There were no conversions to laparotomy. There were no significant differences in operative time, blood loss, morbidity, or postoperative hospital stay between patients with and without prior abdominal surgery. LH with upper abdominal surgical history and repeat hepatectomy is feasible and safe for select patients.
