Abstract: Laparoscopic anatomic liver resection (LALR) has gone through the process of exploration, development and optimization from simple to complex, and then to precise. After over-coming the double obstacles of technology and concept, the procedural and standardized operating system of LALR has initially taken shape. But the overall development and promotion of LALR still face great difficulties and challenges. In order to standardize the basic methods and technologies of LALR, ensure the safety and homogeneity required in its development and promotion, as well as the precision that may surpass the laparotomy, and give full play to the special advantages of LALR while avoiding the inherent limitations of laparoscopy, the Chinese Research Hospital Association, Society for Hepato‑pancreato‑biliary Surgery and the Editorial Board of Chinese Journal of Digestive Surgery organize experts in the field of liver surgery in China to carry out in‑depth discussions. On the basis of summarizing clinical experiences and relevant literatures, the Chinese Expert Consensus on Surgical Procedures and Technical Standards of Laparoscopic Anatomic Liver Resection (2023 Edition) is formulated to promote the standardized development of LALR, improve its application level in liver surgery, and lay the foundation for further obtaining high‑level evidence‑based medi-cine evidence of clinical application of LALR.
