This is from a surgical report. Tumorectomy of a lesion on segment VIII of the liver.

with a J-shaped incision (Makuuchi incision)
L'incision sous-costale droite complétée par **un refend médian, appelé incision de Makuuchi**, est également utilisée. Toutes ces incisions sont longues, parce que le foie est un organe volumineux et qui est solidement attaché au diaphragme et à la paroi postérieure.

The J-shaped incision (Makuuchi incision) is used most frequently for surgery on the right liver. This incision provides a particularly good access to the area between the inferior vena cava and the right hepatic vein.

| Thanks Liz : ) I think this is a great solution since the source text doesn't mention the Makucchi technique by name. |
