In order to better manage the cutting surface after liver resection, we further applied trans-parenchymal compressing suture to "not good" cutting surface in hope of decreasing cutting surface related complication. A majority of studies investigating cutting surface management are limited to non-surgical treatments, such as the application of hemostasis agents including fibrin sealants, oxidized cellulose, and absorbable gelatin sponge13-15 . But there is no consensus regarding the necessity of the hemostatic agent application to the liver cutting surface. Up to date, few studies investigate surgical suture management of the cutting surface in liver resection.
