AR was not possible in all cases due to variations in intrahepatic anatomy when dealing with right-side liver resection. In such cases, fissural approach was preferred among the Glissonean approaches to overcome difficulties. The colleagues suggested that a tailored surgery according to the 3D image analysis is required. By introducing 3D synapse (Fujifilm) to our institution in 2016, Dr. Wang tried to raise the success rate of AR by performing so-called tailored procedures, according to the intuitive reconstruction image of the intrahepatic vasculature which was obtained prior to the surgery.
