A standardized stepwise technique is described below for right, left, and left lateral section donor hepatectomy.
Right Donor Hepatectomy
Falciform Dissection
The ligamentum teres and falciform ligamentum are divided up to the level of the hepatic vein-IVC conuence. The third arm is used to grasp the leaets of the falci­form ligament near the conuence and a gentle inferior and posterior retraction is used to expose the conuence. The peritoneal covering of the hepatic vein conu­ence is incised, exposing the three hepatic veins. The right coronary ligament lateral to the right hepatic vein is divided. The transection line follows the principal plane for a right donor hepatectomy; the superior end of the principal line is marked on the liver surface with electrocautery between the right (RHV) and middle (MHV) hepatic veins.
Hilar Dissection
The third arm cushioned by a gauze is used to retract segment 4B and gallbladder anterosuperiorly. The laparoscopic assistant retracts the duodenum inferiorly with blunt-tipped instrument or suction device exposing the liver hilum. A standard cho­lecystectomy is performed, with division of the cystic duct and artery between clips, and the gallbladder specimen is removed from the peritoneal cavity later. The

clipped cystic duct stump is now ligated with 3/0 Vicryl/Silk tie or suture-ligated with 3/0 Vicryl/Silk sutures with tails left long. The tails are grasped by the third arm previously positioned at segment 4B, and using the forceps as a pulley, the cystic duct is retracted anteriorly and slightly to the patient’s left, exposing the lat­eral and right posterior aspect of the common hepatic duct (CHD).
Dissection ofRight Hepatic Artery
A standard right hepatic artery (RHA) usually courses posterior to the CHD and changes course toward the cephalad direction on the right side of the CHD.Lymphatic and nerve tissue covering the RHA are dissected free. As much of the length of the proximal RHA is separated from the posterior wall of CHD (taking care not to injure either the artery or the duct) to provide a good length for recipient anastomo­sis. If the RHA courses anterior to the duct, it will need to be dissected away from the anterior surface of the CHD (Fig.34.5). The segment 4 hepatic artery may be encountered if it is a branch of the right hepatic artery; it is kept out of harm’s way, and the future division point of the RHA will be distal to its’ takeoff. Distally, the RHA is dissected away from the CHD and the distal right hepatic duct (which will be transected with the graft). Posteriorly, the RHA is freed from the portal vein. The RHA is then encircled with a vessel loop.
A replaced RHA from the superior mesenteric artery courses parallel to the lat­eral and posterior right wall of the common bile duct (CBD) and CHD.It is usually covered by the station 12b lymph node which may be excised to gain access to the RHA.The length of the replaced RHA is then dissected free from the bile ducts anteriorly and the portal vein posteriorly, and subsequently encircled (Fig.34.6).
Dissection oftheRight Portal Vein
The vessel loop of the RHA is grasped by the third arm and gentle retraction is used to expose the anterior surface of the portal vein and its bifurcation. The plane between the CHD and anterior surface of the portal vein (PV) is developed by

pushing the portal vein posteriorly off the attachments to the duct and RHA.Dissection proceeds cephalad until identication of the bifurcation is conrmed by visualiza­tion of the right, left, and main portal veins. The right portal vein (RPV) is then carefully teased off the hilar plate using the Maryland forceps and scissors.
Once the anterior and superior RPV is mobilized, the dissection of the posterior aspect of the RPV is performed. The peritoneal lining the posterior aspect of the RPV is divided and retracted posterior-inferiorly by the laparoscopic assistant. Caudate branches are visualized on the posterior RPV, and these are carefully encir­cled. The PV side of these branches are always ligated with a tie to avoid clips on the PV, which could hamper future clipping or stapling of the RPV, while the cau­date side may be clipped prior to division.
Once all caudate branches are divided, the posterior RPV is then dissected off the hilar plate, moving cephalad until the dissection plane is met from the anterior side. Once this space is developed, the RPV is encircled with a vessel loop. A 5/0 Prolene stitch is placed supercially at the proximal RPV to mark the bifurcation (Fig.34.7).
Mobilization oftheRight Lobe
The third arm cushioned by a gauze is used to retract segments 5 and 6 superior­anteriorly, exposing the inferior layer of the right coronary and right triangular liga­ments. These ligaments are divided and the bare area mobilized using the scissors or vessel sealer, taking care not to injure the diaphragm (Fig.34.8). As more of the bare area is exposed, the third arm is moved sequentially superiorly and posteriorly to provide more retraction. The liver is mobilized off the right adrenal. We then turn our attention medially toward the retrohepatic inferior vena cava (IVC).
The peritoneal lining between the caudate and IVC is incised, and short caudate and hepatic veins draining directly to the IVC are serially divided between clips or vessel sealer. Dissection continues in a cephalad direction on the anterior surface of the retrohepatic IVC, mobilizing the liver from the IVC.Caudate process division from the right lobe at this point helps cephalad dissection of the IVC.Laterally, the

hepatocaval ligament is left intact as division of this ligament is easier after paren­chymal transection. The liver is carefully mobilized from the IVC until the area near the right and middle hepatic veins is reached. This completes the right lobe mobili­zation, and the liver is returned to its anatomical position.
Demarcation
The third arm is used to retract segment 4B.The hilar plate is separated from the liver at the area of the bile duct bifurcation, and a small ball of Surgicel™ Fibrillar™ is inserted in this space to mark the hilar endpoint of the parenchymal transection. Bulldog clamps are placed on the RHA and RPV (Fig.34.9). Indocyanine green dye (ICG) 2.5mg is injected intravenously, and using the Firey™ mode, demarcation of the perfused left lobe is augmented by uorescence. The line of demarcation is

marked on the anterior and inferior liver surface using electrocautery. The clamps are removed. An ultrasound may be performed to mark the course of the MHV (which stays with the remnant) and segmental veins draining segments 5 and 8.
Parenchymal Transection
“Rubber Band” Retraction Technique
One rubber band is sutured to each side of the transection line at the tip of the liver. Each end of the rubber band is externalized on the respective sides of the upper abdomen and secured to the drapes. This technique takes advantage of the elasticity of the bands to provide contact retraction of the transection plane without having to use any of the robotic or laparoscopic arms or a liver retractor.
Parenchymal Transection
A Pringle maneuver is avoided unless necessary for hemostasis (details of a Pringle maneuver is described in Chap. 25). During the initial part of the parenchymal tran­section, the third arm cushioned by a gauze is used to gently lift the inferior surface of the liver off the hilum. Parenchymal transection is performed with harmonic scalpel and Maryland bipolar forceps. Small intervening vessels and oozing from the parenchyma are controlled with bipolar electrocautery. Larger vessels including segments 5 and 8 veins are divided between clips. If these veins are to be recon­structed in the recipient, an appropriate length of the vein stumps on the graft side will need to be preserved to enable anastomosis.
As more of the parenchyma is transected, the liver edges are continually retracted due to the elasticity of the rubber bands. These might need to be tightened as tran­section progress. Once most of the parenchyma has been transected, leaving about 2 cm of parenchyma anteriorly along the IVC, the right hepatic duct (RHD) is divided.

Division ofRight Hepatic Duct
The parenchyma down to the level of the biliary bifurcation should be completely transected. An ICG cholangiogram is performed to visualize the biliary bifurcation using Firey™. The location of RHD division is chosen based on the surgeon’s interpretation of the cholangiogram. We usually aim to provide the recipient sur­geon with as few ducts for anastomosis as possible while making sure not to impinge on the donor’s biliary bifurcation.
There are two ways to transect the duct:
1. Clip-and-cut
The Maryland forceps is used to encircle an umbilical tape around the entire hepatic duct with its surrounding hilar plate tissue. A large Hem-o-lock clip is then placed on the distal RHD ensuring that it does not encroach onto the bifur­cation. The proximal RHD on the graft side is then sharply divided (Fig.34.10). The stump of the distal RHD on the donor side is suture-ligated with a running 5/0 PDS.
2. Cut-and-clip/suture The posterior aspect of the RHD is examined to identify a crossing arterial
branch, which, if seen, should be divided between clips. The RHD is then cut at the chosen point without cutting the hilar tissues This hilar plate tissue is divided between two small metal clips. The stump of the distal RHD is suture-ligated with a running 5/0 PDS.
The choice of the technique used is inuenced by the length of the RHD and the thickness of the surrounding hilar tissue. The clip-and-cut option tends to take up an additional ~0.5–1mm of RHD length, and it may be difcult to apply the Hem-o­lock clip on thick hilar tissues. The cut-and-clip/suture option may lead to fewer bile duct openings for recipient anastomosis.

Completion ofParenchymal Transection
The remainder of the parenchyma is transected, from caudal to cephalad, with a ves­sel sealer while the assistant gently pushes the liver anteriorly off the IVC.The nal piece of transection should be the parenchymal between the right and middle hepatic veins. Once completed, the right hepatic vein is encircled with an umbilical tape.
Cross-Clamp andGraft Extraction
The middle robotic arms are undocked. A Pfannenstiel incision is made. It is impor­tant not to injure the graft during extraction and to minimize the time between cross­clamp and ushing of the graft with preservation uid on the backtable. There are two ways to extract the graft depending on the size of the graft and whether it ts in a laparoscopic retrieval bag:
1. Fits a laparoscopic retrieval bag
The peritoneal lining at the Pfannenstiel is not opened at this point. The robot is redocked and the right lobe is partially placed into a laparoscopic retrieval bag that is inserted via the 12mm assistant port. Cross-clamping is performed as described below and the graft is completely placed in the bag. The peritoneal lining is opened, the string of the bag is grasped, and the graft is extracted.
2. Does not t a laparoscopic retrieval bag The peritoneal lining at the Pfannenstiel is opened and a Gelport (Applied
Medical, Rancho Santa Margarita, CA, USA) is placed in the incision. The robot is redocked and a large retrieval bag is inserted via the Gelport and the graft partially placed in the bag. Cross-clamping is performed as described below and the graft is completely placed in the bag. The bag is grasped and extracted via the Gelport.
Cross-clamping commences when the RHA is doubly clipped and transected distal to the clips while preserving as much length as possible for recipient anasto­mosis. The RPV is transected with a stapler just distal to the stitch marking the bifurcation. The RHV and hepatocaval ligament are transected with separate rings of the stapler. The graft and gallbladder are then extracted as described above.
Closure
Hemostasis of the cut surface and hilum is performed. Bile leak is ruled out. The clips, staple, and suture lines are inspected. The left lobe is reattached to the falci­form ligament to prevent torsion. A drain is placed in Morrison’s pouch and exter­nalized via one of the ports (Video 34.1).
Left Donor Hepatectomy
Falciform Dissection andLeft Lobe Mobilization
Falciform dissection and exposure of the hepatic vein conuence is similar to the donor right hepatectomy. The superior end of the transection line is marked between

the RHV and MHV (MHV is kept with the graft). The left triangular ligament is divided, and the left lateral segment is retracted toward the patient’s right with the third arm exposing the gastrohepatic ligament.
If there is an accessory (10% of population) or replaced left hepatic artery (7.5%) arising from the left gastric artery (LGA), this vessel is carefully preserved. Oftentimes, this artery is dissected until its branch point from the left gastric artery. The LGA in this area is also dissected free of lymphatic tissues to enable procure­ment of a short segment of this artery during cross-clamp to form a branch patch for recipient anastomosis.
The Arantius ligament is located and divided at the superior pole of the caudate lobe, exposing the junction between the left hepatic vein and vena cava, which is marked by inserting a ball of Surgicel™ Fibrillar™. Dissection deeper into this area can be performed to encircle the middle and left hepatic veins but this step is not necessary. If the caudate lobe is to be procured as well, Spiegel’s lobe is mobilized from the vena cava by incising the peritoneal attachments and dividing the short hepatic veins between clips or with a vessel sealer.
Hilar Dissection
The third arm is used to retract segment 4B to expose the hilum. A cholecystectomy is performed. The peritoneal covering over the left side of the hilum is opened.
Dissection oftheLeft Hepatic Artery
The left hepatic artery is dissected free from lymphatic and nerve tissue from the proper hepatic artery until the umbilical ssure. The station 12a lymph node may be excised to provide exposure. Medially, the artery is mobilized from the main and left portal vein and encircled with a vessel loop (Fig.34.11). The location of the right hepatic artery is noted at all times and dissection close to this artery is avoided.

Dissection oftheLeft Portal Vein
Gentle retraction on the vessel loop encircling the left hepatic artery toward the patient’s left side will expose the left portal vein (LPV). The superior side of the LPV is mobilized from the left hepatic duct and hilar plate. Small branches to seg­ment 4B in this area are divided between clips (the LPV side is ligated with ties to avoid clips obstructing future clipping or stapling of the LPV).
The artery is then retracted anteriorly exposing the posterior LPV.Several cau­date LPV branches are usually seen near the umbilical ssure. If the caudate lobe is not to be procured with the graft, these caudate branches are dissected free and divided between clips (the LPV side is ligated with a tie). The LPV is then encircled with a vessel loop (Fig.34.12). A 5/0 Prolene stitch is placed supercially at the proximal LPV to mark the bifurcation.
Demarcation
The hilar plate is separated from the liver at the area of the biliary bifurcation, and a small ball of Surgicel™ Fibrillar™ is inserted in this space to mark the hilar end­point of the parenchymal transection. If preoperative imaging shows a hepatic duct branch to the right lobe coming off the left hepatic duct (LHD), the endpoint of the transection is shifted proximally on the left hepatic duct before the conuence of the right duct branch, and is usually divided just proximal to the umbilical ssure.
Bulldog clamps are placed on the LHA and LPV.Similar to the right donor hepa­tectomy, ICG 2.5 mg is injected intravenously, and using the Firey™ mode, demarcation of the perfused right lobe is augmented by uorescence. The line of demarcation is marked on the anterior and inferior liver surface using electrocau­tery. The clamps are removed. An ultrasound may be performed to mark the course of the MHV (which will be procured with the graft) and segmental veins draining segments 5 and 8 (Fig.34.13).

Parenchymal Transection
“Rubber Band” Retraction Technique
The previously described rubber band retraction technique is used.
Parenchymal Transection
Parenchymal transection is performed as described above (Figs.34.14 and 34.15). If the caudate is not to be procured, the sagittal parenchymal transection plane ends at the level of the caudate lobe and then curves along a horizontal plane dividing the left lobe from the caudate. If the caudate is to be procured, the caudate lobe is split, and the sagittal transection plane continues until the anterior IVC.
Division oftheLeft Hepatic Duct
Once all the parenchyma has been transected to the level of the biliary bifurcation, an ICG cholangiogram is performed. The biliary bifurcation is visualized, and the appropriate location chosen on the LHD for division (Fig.34.16). The two tech­niques for bile duct division are described above.
