abstract = {Whether for hepatic trauma or transplantation, a surgeon's knowledge of hepatic anatomy commonly determines a patient's outcome. The first medically relevant anatomic studies of the liver emerged with the endeavors of Herophilus and Erasistratus between 310 and 280 BC. Yet it was not until after the development of anesthesia end antisepsis that the first formal resections were performed during the late 1800s. After vascular occlusion principles had been developed as a means of successful hemorrhage control, several deliberate attempts were made to repair the liver surgically. Such efforts culminated in the work of Wendel in 1910 when he followed avascular planes during hepatectomy. The functional anatomy of surgery and surgical technique had suddenly joined in an effort to advance the practice, and eventually the efficacy of hepatic surgeons in facilitating the modern era of segmental anatomy extended hepatectomies and transplantation surgery.},

abstract = {Although battle surgeons had débrided small bits of liver protruding through wounds since ancient times, formal entry into the peritoneal cavity to staunch hemorrhage due to trauma or to remove tumors or drain cysts had to await the advent of general anesthesia and antisepsis. After a burst of pioneering activity from 1880 to 1910, little progress was made until after World War II. In the last 40 years, remarkable advances have been made in the techniques of liver resection, our understanding of liver diseases requiring operation, and our ability to support patients through major resections. Liver transplantation epitomizes the challenges that can now be accepted, and its success augurs well for an increase in liver operations in the future. © 1991, American Medical Association.
