[Couinard's technics of liver resection].

Six cases of major liver resections (five right lobectomies and one left lobectomy) are reported. In all these cases the technique described by Couinaud (of suprahilar intrahepatic ligation of the portal pedicle) was used. Although the technique could be simple and rapid, it may produce severe accidents, especially in patients with biliary anomalies. Five of the six cases had an uneventful postoperative course, while in the sixth case, obstructive jaundice developed postoperatively. The case was solved through reoperation and a Roux-en-Y anastomosis. The main conclusion is that the Couinaud technique could be used, because of its advantages (speed, less blood loss) but special precautions are necessary when biliovascular anomalies of the liver are present.
