ResumoA combination of an in situ pedicle resection of the liver and a hepatic vein reconstruction using a cranially transpositioned segment of the IVC after implantation of an ePTFE graft at the missing IVC was useful in treating a patient who suffered from a huge liver tumor involving all of the hepatic venous confluence and the IVC. Although early tumor recurrence remains an unresolved problem for such patients, a surgical approach is feasible. This technique can be justified as a therapeutic modality, not only because it improves quality of life, but also because it provides patients with an opportunity for additional treatment.
