Abstract
Hepatothorax is a rare condition and its repair may represent an anesthetic challenge. After liver replacement in the abdominal cavity during corrective surgery under general anesthesia complications may occur, particularly associated with pulmonary reâexpansion. Effective teamwork and careful planning of surgery, between the surgical and anesthetic teams, are the key to success.
