an easy and safe technique, liver transection by curettage and aspiration (LTCA), using an efficient instrument, Peng’s multifunction operative dissector (PMOD) is described in this article. A comparison brtween two groups of patients undergonig hapatectomy were made. One group were operated on with LTCA; the other group with forceps crush method (FCM). Results: the amount of blood loss with LTCA was only half of that with FCM. The time needed for liver transection with OTCA was 40 percent shorter than that with FCM. After comparision of a variety of currently available techniiques and surgical instruments, it is concluded that LTCA is superior to all other techniques, while PMOD is superior to CUSA.
