| Core Tip |
Liver resection represents a gold standard for the treatment of liver malignancies. Minimally invasive approach guarantees less invasiveness and faster postoperative recovery. Frail and older patients undergoing liver resection under general anesthesia have a high risk of respiratory and cardiac complications. Locoregional anesthesia preserves better intestinal, cardiac and pulmonary function compared to general anesthesia. The combination of robotic surgery and locoregional anesthesia guarantees minimal surgical and anesthetic invasiveness and could be considered a safe approach in selected patients and specialized centers. |
