- Abstract
The article provides an overview of the relevant nomenclature of hepatic surgery, an approach to the postoperative management, and awareness of complications of such surgery. Colorectal liver metastasis is said to be the commonest indication for hepatic resection surgery in Great Britain. Hepatic surgery reportedly needs some knowledge of hepatic anatomy and specific nomenclature is applied to such resections. An approach to postoperative management is described.
