Segment 7 is considered an unfavorable portion for laparoscopic hepatectomy because of technical difficulties in exposure and controlling bleeding. We compared intermittent Pringle with continuous half-Pringle maneuver in laparoscopic liver resections of tumors in segment 7. A retrospective analysis was conducted in a total of 36 consecutive patients with tumors in segment 7 undergoing laparoscopic liver resections between July 2011 and February 2016 (16 in the Pringle group versus 20 in the half-Pringle group). The two groups were well matched in baseline characteristics. The operative time (274.5 ± 34.3 versus 237.6 ± 41.8 min), overall declamping time (28.4 ± 8.6 versus 2.3 ± 2.5 min), and ischemic duration (69.7 ± 16.5 versus 52.7 ± 13.2 min) were significantly longer in the Pringle group ( P  &lt; 0.05). The amount of intraoperative blood loss (612.5 ± 222.3 versus 417.4 ± 163.8 mL) and transfusion (335.2 ± 58.7 versus 224.8 ± 76.2 mL) was significantly greater in the Pringle group ( P  &lt; 0.05). The Pringle group was associated with significantly lower postoperative albumin and higher C-reactive protein levels on postoperative days 1, 3, and 7 ( P  &lt; 0.05). Laparoscopic hepatectomy for tumors in segment 7 can be performed safely and effectively with successful exposure of surgical field and proper hepatic blood flow occlusion. Continuous half-Pringle maneuver offers the advantages of less operative time and blood loss, less injury, and better recovery.
