Objective:To evaluate the value of clinical application of modified liver hanging maneuver method via  anterior approach in right hepatectomy.
Methods:Firstly, a retrohepatic tunnel was developed, then the liver was elevated with single or double suspension slings, and right hepatectomy was performed with liver hanging maneuver method via anterior approach.
Results:Ten cases included 5 cases of liver cancer, 2 cases of hepatic hemangioma, 2 cases of intrahepatic stones, and 1 case of severe liver injury. All the operations were carried out successfully without surgery-related complications.
Conclusions:The liver hanging maneuver is a safe and reliable method for right hepatectomy. This method is recommended for right hepatectomy in both benign and malignant hepatic lesions and severe liver injury.
