The document discusses segment oriented liver resections. It describes how improved imaging and surgical techniques have enabled more precise resections based on the liver's segmental anatomy. Various types of segmental resections are outlined, including segmentectomies, bisegmentectomies, and trisegmentectomies. Indications for these procedures include benign lesions, cirrhosis, multiple lesions, and liver metastases. Postoperative morbidity and mortality rates are reported to be minimal.
