What is the Laennec capsule concept?
The Laennec capsule concept refers to the anatomical understanding of liver structures that aids in surgical procedures.
How does intraoperative ultrasound assist in surgery?
Intraoperative ultrasound helps visualize tumor boundaries and assess anatomical relationships in real-time.
What are the benefits of using color Doppler ultrasound?
Color Doppler ultrasound allows for accurate assessment of blood flow in major vascular structures, preventing injury during surgery.
Why is precise tumor resection important?
Precise tumor resection is critical for improving surgical outcomes and reducing the risk of recurrence in HCC patients.
What role does preoperative therapy play?
Comprehensive preoperative therapy prepares patients for surgery and can enhance overall outcomes.
