Core Tip	Hepatectomy remains one of the best treatments of choice for primary or metastatic liver tumors of the right hepatic lobe. Anterior and conventional approaches are the most common methods for liver resection. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate their feasibility, safety and efficacy. Anterior approach hepatectomy has more advantages than the conventional approach, and no significant difference from the conventional approach for perioperative complications, intraoperative tumor rupture, and length of hospital stay.
