Özet

Purpose: In this preliminary study, we applied Radiofrequency(RF) energy in six patients with liver diseases for parenchymal transection to minimize bleeding or to do bloodless hepatectomy. Materials and Methods: Of six patients, four had liver tumors (3 heamangyomas, one hepatocellular carcinoma) and two hepatic hydatic cysts. Surgical procedures were RF assisted hepatectomy, enucleation, cystectomy and pericystectomy. Results: There was no need for blood transfusion except one case. Liver enzymes was normal after one week postoperatively except in two cases. Conclusion: We think that RF will be technique of choice for bloodless hepatectomy in coming years.
