    • Liver capsule tear (also in the area of the Lig. teres hepatis) due to adhesion
      Adaptation using liver suture, hemostasis with fibrin glue or sealing with fibrin-coated collagen fleece
    • Injury to the bile ducts peripherally or centrally
      Drainage. In case of CHD injury suture, if necessary attempt re-anastomosis. Here the suture must be splinted with a T-drainage for a certain time. In extreme cases, consider a biliodigestive anastomosis. This procedure requires detailed specialist knowledge! Therefore, better to transfer the patient to a corresponding center!
