What is Hepatectomy?

Hepatectomy, also known as liver resection, is a surgical procedure where a portion or entire liver is removed. It is commonly performed for liver cancers, tumors, and in liver donor surgeries.

The liver has a unique ability to regenerate. In healthy individuals, the remaining liver grows back to normal size within weeks. However, in cirrhotic liver, regeneration capacity is limited.
