HPB Surgery

Aims & Scope

Cessation.

Hepatopancreatobiliary surgery has emerged as a distinct branch of surgical practice over the last three decades.

This challenging subspecialty of surgical gastroenterology is concerned not just with surgical diseases of the liver, pancreas and biliary tree but also with those that affect the neighbouring organs: duodenum, portal vein and spleen.

The conditions that fall within the ambit of an HPB surgeon include some of the most deadly known to man such as cirrhosis of the liver and adenocarcinoma of the pancreas.

They also include one of the most common, gallstones.
