Methods: Twenty patients undergoing S7-8 between 2010 and 2017 were evaluated and compared with 22 patients undergoing right posterior sectionectomy (RPS), with a similar resection volume but without hepatic vein resection. In the S7-8 group, 14 patients with a significant IRHV (median 6 mm, range 3.6–8.8 mm) underwent S7-8 without hepatic vein reconstruction. RHV reconstruction was performed for 6 patients with no IRHV, consisting of direct endto-end anastomosis of the RHV in 5 patients and reconstruction using the cryo-preserved iliac vessel in 1 patient.
