Extra-Glissonian Approach for Laparoscopic Liver Right Anterior Sectionectomy.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundOpen right anterior sectionectomy, which involves resection of liver segments 5 and 8, has been reported to have similar postoperative mortality rates as right hepatectomy, but it has a decreased risk in developing posthepatectomy liver failure. Totally laparoscopic right anterior sectionectomy is technically demanding and has rarely been reported in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients with cirrhosis.
methodsOur experience in carrying out totally laparoscopic right anterior sectionectomy on four consecutive HCC patients with cirrhosis from November 2016 to August 2017 using the extraglissonian approach formed the basis of this report.
resultsAll four patients had hepatitis B-related HCC. The mean operation time was 502 ± 55 minutes. All patients underwent intermittent Pringle's Maneuver with cycles of clamp/unclamp times of 15/5 minutes for the left-sided liver transection plane, and intermittent right hemihepatic vascular inflow occlusion with cycles of clamp/unclamp times of 30/5 minutes for the right-sided liver transection plane. The mean Pringle's Maneuver time was 58.8 ± 11.4 minutes and the mean right hemihepatic vascular inflow occlusion time was 66.3 ± 11.1 minutes. The mean intraoperative blood loss was 512 ± 301 mL. No patients required any blood transfusion. There was no conversion to open surgery. Postoperative complications included intra-abdominal bleeding requiring reoperation for hemostasis (n = 1), intra-abdominal collection requiring percutaneous drainage (n = 1), and right pleural effusion requiring percutaneous drainage (n = 1). There was no 90-day postoperative mortality. The mean hospital stay was 10.7 ± 2.9 days. After a median follow-up of 10 (range, 6-16) months, one patient developed HCC recurrence in the liver remnant.
conclusionTotally laparoscopic right anterior sectionectomy using the extraglissonian approach was technically feasible and safe in expert hands. More data are needed to assess the long-term oncological survival outcomes.
