Objective To investigate the role of 3D visualization technology in the laparoscopic precise hepatectomy. Methods To retrieve the literatures about the application of 3D visualization technology in laparoscopic precise hepatectomy, and summarize and analyzed them. Results The application of 3D visualization in laparoscopic precise hepatectomy could effectively reduce the operative time, blood loss, blood transfusion rate, and total complication rate. The application of 3D visualization in preoperative evaluation of the resection surface and residual liver volume had been relatively mature. Although many organizations try to use 3D visualization in laparoscopic hepatectomy, such as laser registration and real-time intraoperative navigation, it had not been widely used in clinic because of technical limitations. Conclusions Existing research results show that, the application of 3D visualization technology in laparoscopic precise hepatectomy can improve the resectability of lesions, increase perioperative safety, but intraoperative navigation is still need to be further developed before it is expected to be widely used in clinical practice. Existing evidence of increased benefit from laparoscopic precise hepatectomy with 3D reconstruction remains limited, and more rigorous randomized controlled trials of large cases are needed to confirm this.
