Abstract
A simplified technique of "ex situ" hepatic surgical treatment, indicated when conventional operation is precluded by a huge centrohepatic tumor or the need of suprahepatic vascular reconstruction, or both, is described. Wide access on all parts of the liver is provided by section of infrahepatic and suprahepatic vena cava, but the continuity of the portal triad is preserved. This technical modification reduces the duration of the anhepatic phase and avoids the risks of artery and biliary reconstruction.
