Abstract

The authors present a classification of cryosurgical operations in resection of the liver in reoperated patients. The basis of this classification is different combination of usual and cryosurgical (cryoresection and cryodestruction) methods, which allow to increase the radicality of the operations. Ten kinds of cryointerventions (5 radical and 5 palliative) were established. The classification proposed allows the operative volume for resection of the liver in reoperated patients to be correctly planned.
