Between 1989 and 1998 two hundred and twelve patients were treated because of liver tumor at the Department of Vascular Surgery, Medical University in Wroclaw. Among them 108 patients (50.9%) were admitted because of liver metastases, 40 patients (18.8%) suffered from primary liver cancer (PLC) and 64 patients (30.1%) had benign liver tumor. Patients with PLC presented in 28 cases hepatocellular carcinoma, in 10 cases cholangiocellular carcinoma and remaining two patients had angiosarcoma. In more than a half of the patients with metastatic liver tumor the primary tumor was found in large bowel (68 cases). There were performed 11 right hemihepatectomies, 4 left hemihepatectomies, 11 bisegmentectomies, 15 segmentectomies, 23 non-anatomical resection and 74 exploratory laparotomies. In 14 cases of liver metastases liver resection was performed simultaneously with radical operation of primary tumor. Postoperative complications occurred in 28 patients (20.2%) and mortality rate was 13.0% (18 pateints).
