We have seen six such cases at our hospital. For patients with fair to excellent liver reserve, we advocated caudate lobectomy combining other types of hepatic resection. For patients with marked liver cirrhosis and poor liver reserve or a small HCC, we advocated simple partial caudate lobectomy (limited hepatic resection). There was no operative mortality or major operative morbidity. We conclude that such approaches are safer, less time-consuming, and less technique-demanding, and they produce a fair survival result compared with the approaches of other procedures. With such approaches, it is our experience that patients with HCC from the caudate lobe have a prognosis comparable to that of patients with HCC in other parts of the liver.
