| Core Tip |
We have shown the feasibility and efficacy of Associating Liver Partition and Portal Vein Ligation for Staged Hepatectomy (ALPPS) procedure -initially described for the resection of advanced tumors including colorectal liver metastasis, hilar cholangiocarcinoma and to a lesser extent hepatocellular carcinoma-in resection of recurrent hepatic alveolar echinococcosis in a young patient. In selected patient groups with benign liver disease with extensive hepatic involvement ALPPS can be safely used in centers which have expertise in liver transplantation and major hepatic surgery. According to our knowledge, the present patient is the first extensive hepatic AE case that ALPPS procedure has been applied in the literature. |
