{Abstract}: The surgical management of perihilar carcinoma (pCCA) is still subject of ongoing debate. To provide more clarity, this study was conducted to evaluate outcomes related to the side and extent of heatectomy in patients with pCAA.<BR>A total of 32 patients with curative resection for pCCA were identified from our prospective database. Short-and long-term clinical outcome data and histopathological results were compared between right-sided (R-H) and left-sided (L-H) hepatectomy.<BR>Nine patients (28.13%) underwent left-sided hepatectomy while a right-sided hepatectomy was accomplished in 23 patients (71.87%). In the R-H group hepatic conditioning of the future liver remnant (FLR) prior to extended resection was necessary in 13 cases (56.52%), and simultaneous pancreaticoduodenectomy was performed in 5 patients (21.74%). The arterial and portal venous reconstruction rates were 17.39% and 11.11% (P=1.00), and 60.87% and 33.33% (P=0.243) in the R-H and L-H groups, respectively. No statistically significant differences in short-term morbidity and mortality between both groups were observed. The rate of R0 resections was comparable (R-H: 78.26% versus L-H: 66.67%; P=0.654) resulting in similar long-term overall and disease-free survival rates after right-and left hepatectomy.<BR>In patients with pCCA, both right- and left-sided resections appear to be safe and feasible options with similar postoperative morbidity and oncologic outcomes. Consecutively, the ideal surgical approach should be patient-tailored based on anatomical considerations and the functional future liver capacity.
