Hepato-pancreato-biliary (HPB) surgery

Hepato-pancreato-biliary surgery or HPB surgery is surgery of the liver, pancreas and biliary system.

About HPB surgery

Our HPB surgery department provides multidisciplinary care in the diagnosis and management of benign and malignant diseases affecting the liver, pancreas, and biliary tract.

HPB surgery is normally carried out using ‘keyhole’ techniques (laparoscopic surgery); this is a less invasive type of surgery that reduces the risk of infection and provides a faster recovery time.

Where possible, we utilise state-of-the-art robotic technology to carry out HPB surgery. Robotic surgery can have multiple benefits for patients, including less pain and scarring and a faster recovery.
