A retrospective analysis reveals augmented reality (AR) enhances tumour localisation in minimally invasive liver surgery (MILS), achieving a zero conversion rate for the AR group, compared to six conversions in the non-AR group. While AR increased operative times by 10%, it did not adversely affect resection margins or postoperative complications. The findings suggest AR’s potential to improve surgical precision without increasing risks, making it a valuable tool in liver surgeries performed from 2017 to 2023.
