Hepatobiliary – Pancreatic Surgery

Hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgeons specialize in the surgical management of diseases affecting the liver, gallbladder, bile ducts, and pancreas. Their expertise includes treatment of cancers, benign tumors, gallstones, bile duct strictures, and traumatic injuries.

These surgeons perform complex procedures such as liver resections, pancreaticoduodenectomy (Whipple procedure), bile duct reconstruction, and laparoscopic or robotic-assisted surgeries. They conduct thorough preoperative assessments to optimize patient condition and collaborate closely with oncologists, gastroenterologists, and radiologists for comprehensive care.

Postoperative care involves vigilant monitoring for complications, nutritional support, and long-term follow-up to improve survival and quality of life. Their goal is to provide curative and palliative surgical options while minimizing risks and preserving organ function.
