Foreword I
Surgery, which is as old as mankind, is an art of working with hands. The introduction of laparoscopic surgery has drastically changed the way in which surgeons operate. In the past two decades, laparoscopic surgery has invaded and conquered all bastions of open surgery. It is the first time in the history of surgery that such drastic and sweeping changes have occurred within such a short period of time. Even complex liver resectional surgery, which has always been considered as one of the most difficult operations in open surgery, can be carried out laparoscopically now. This metamorphosis of surgical techniques has promoted how a change in a surgical atlas could be documented. Instead of the simple description of techniques by written words or by drawings, the use of a lot of high-definition digital operative photographs enabled by modern laparoscopic instruments has created a good instructional format to illustrate how a complex liver resectional surgery is carried out.
