Liver Surgery: Procedures for Liver Diseases and Tumors
In this article, we will explore common liver conditions, their symptoms, and the surgical procedures for liver diseases and tumors. The liver is a vital organ responsible for numerous functions, including detoxification, metabolism, and the production of essential proteins. However, various conditions can affect the liver, ranging from benign liver cysts to liver tumors. When conservative treatments fail to provide relief or when liver tumors require intervention, liver surgery may be necessary. At Lenox Hill Surgeons, a trusted general surgery practice in New York City, our expert surgeons specialize in liver surgery, offering advanced procedures for liver diseases and tumors.
Common Liver Diseases and Tumors
The liver can be affected by a range of diseases and tumors, including:
1. Hepatitis:
Hepatitis is an inflammation of the liver often caused by viral infections, such as hepatitis A, B, or C. Chronic hepatitis can lead to liver damage and the development of liver diseases.
2. Liver Cirrhosis:
Liver cirrhosis is a progressive scarring of the liver due to long-term damage, typically caused by chronic hepatitis, alcohol abuse, or certain metabolic diseases. Cirrhosis can impair liver function and lead to complications.
3. Liver Cysts:
Liver cysts are fluid-filled sacs that can develop within the liver. Most liver cysts are benign and do not require treatment. However, large or symptomatic cysts may require surgical intervention.
4. Liver Tumors:
Liver tumors can be either benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous). Benign liver tumors, such as hemangiomas or adenomas, may require surgical removal if they cause symptoms or pose a risk. Malignant liver tumors, such as hepatocellular carcinoma or metastatic tumors, often necessitate surgical treatment, along with other therapies.
Surgical Procedures for Liver Diseases and Tumors
Liver surgery encompasses various procedures, depending on the specific condition and its severity. Some common surgical interventions for liver diseases and tumors include:
1. Liver Resection:
Liver resection involves the surgical removal of a portion of the liver affected by tumors or diseases. This procedure aims to remove the diseased or cancerous tissue while preserving sufficient healthy liver tissue.
2. Liver Transplantation:
Liver transplantation is performed in cases of end-stage liver disease or advanced liver cancer. It involves replacing the diseased liver with a healthy liver from a deceased or living donor.
3. Ablation Therapy:
Ablation therapy utilizes techniques such as radiofrequency ablation, microwave ablation, or cryoablation to destroy tumors within the liver. These minimally invasive procedures can be effective for small liver tumors.
4. Biliary Surgery:
Biliary surgery addresses conditions affecting the bile ducts, which carry bile from the liver to the small intestine. Procedures such as bile duct repair, bile duct resection, or the creation of biliary bypasses may be necessary to restore proper bile flow.
