Efficiency of Anatomical Hepatectomy in the Treatment of Hepatic Cystic Echinococcosis

Total cystectomy and hepatectomy are the main radical surgical procedures for hepatic cystic echinococcosis (CE). When CE lesions severely invade intrahepatic biliary ducts and vessels or single or multiple lesions occupy one hepatic lobe, performing total cystectomy is not indicated. This study aimed to analyze the clinical efficiency of anatomical hepatectomy in the treatment of patients with hepatic CE.
