Because of this division into self-contained units, each segment can be resected without damaging those r
Because of this division into self-contained units, each segment can be resected without damaging those remaining. For the liver to remain viable, resections must proceed along the vessels that define the peripheries of these segments. This means, that resection-lines parallel the hepatic veins, The centrally located portal veins, bile ducts, and hepatic arteries are preserved.
