case_images: Instead, we chose a simultaneous surgical approach and both teams used the individual reperfusion times, respectively (Figure 2).
case_images: Well-perfused liver cysts (blue arrows) are highlighted by contrast medium (liver size marked with red arrows, preoperative computed tomography scan, early venous phase). Explanted cyst liver (b): gall bladder, g; cysts, c.
