Diagnosis of benign liver tumors is experiencing exponential growth, mainly owing to the diffusion of more accurate imaging techniques. This monograph examines the epidemiology, histopathology, and genetics of these tumors and provides a systematic overview of their evolution and differential diagnosis. Care is taken to document surgical indications accurately, with a view to assisting in the avoidance of useless interventions. Open, laparoscopic, and robotic surgical techniques are described and illustrated, emphasizing the optimization of intra- and postoperative management in order to avoid potential complications and degeneration. In these chapters, attention is drawn to the ways in which the surgical management of benign liver tumors differs from that of malignant tumors. The book concludes by examining the role of interventional radiology in patients with benign liver tumors.

Industry Reviews

"The authors should be commended for their meticulous literature search and the efforts made to include the latest information on hepatology. ... this lucid and readable book provides comprehensive and up-to-date information on a subject that deserves greater attention from clinicians. Both students and practitioners of hepatology and hepatobiliary surgery would find this book useful." (Shaleen Agarwal, The National Medical Journal of India, Vol. 28 (5), September-October, 2016)
