| description | <strong>Background:</strong> Hepatic surgery currently shows impressive advances. Among the newest techniques we can include digitoclasia, created by Ton That Tung. <br /><strong>Objective:</strong> To describe the results of hepatic resections in patients operated with digitoclasia. <strong><br />Methods:</strong> A descriptive, retrospective study of the outcome of twenty patients operated in the hospital “Dr. Gustavo Aldereguía Lima” in Cienfuegos, carried out in a period of ten years. The following variables were analyzed: Age, sex, disease that determined the intervention, kind of hepatic resection, complications and mortality. <strong><br />Findings:</strong> Cavernous haemangioma, hepatocarcinoma, hepatic metastasis of colon cancer and politraumatism were the main causes that led to surgical intervention; right hepatectomy was the most frequent technique. <strong><br />Conclusions:</strong> Digitoclasia is a quick and safe procedure, even for wide hepatic resections since, even with some levels of complications and mortality, these do not exceed the figures of studies by other authors. <br /> |
