LAPAROSCOPIC HEPATIC S5-6 SEGMENTECTOMY FOR BLEEDING HCC

A 75-year-old male with history of chronic HCV- related hepatitis, in regular follow-up and sustained viral response (SVR), presented at our Emergency Department for sudden epigastric pain. Urgency CT scan and subsequent abdominal MRI revealed a 2,5cm monofocal HCC in S5 with surrounding hepatic hematoma (7cm of extension) and hemoperitoneum layer. The procedure consisted in laparoscopic exploration, lysis of tenacious adhesions between hepatic hematoma and the right colic flexure, intraoperative ultrasound to assess tumor extension, preparation of Pringle Maneuver and parenchyma transection with ultrasound dissector combined with colecistectomy.
