Abstract: Hepatectomy is the most effective method for the treatment of liver cancer. Asso-ciating liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy (ALPPS) provides resectable opportunities for patients with unresectable or borderline resectable liver cancer. Traditional ALPPS procedures involve a short interval between two stages of the surgery, leading to a higher incidence of perioperative complications and mortality. The authors present a case of two‑stage hepatectomy. Initially, laparoscopic ligation of the right hepatic artery and portal vein was performed. To prevent tumor progression after the first stage of surgery, combined immunotherapy and targeted therapy were administered. Three months later, a successful right hemihepatectomy was performed. Postoperative histopathological examination revealed hepatocellular carcinoma with extensive tumor necrosis. A 15‑month follow‑up showed no tumor recurrence. This indicated that two‑stage hepatectomy including simultaneous ligation of the hepatic artery and portal vein, combined with two-stage hepatectomy plus immunotherapy and targeted therapy, showed considerable promise for borderline resectable liver cancer.
