Abstract		Background The Scientific Committee of the IHPBA, meeting in December 1998, created a Terminology Committee to deal with the confusion in nomenclature of hepatic anatomy and liver resections. A terminology was sought which was anatomically correct, in which anatomical and surgical terms agreed, and which was consistent, self-explanatory, linguistically correct, translatable, precise and concise. Discussion After 18 months the International Committee presented a terminology that was accepted by the IHPBA at the recent World Congress in Brisbane. The purpose of this paper is to present that terminology.
