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. HPB surgery often requires the close working of consultants with areas of expertise.
HPB refers to both benign and malignant conditions affecting the liver, pancreas, and biliary tract.
Cromwell Hospital specialises in comprehensive HPB surgery, led by expert HPB surgeons. We utilise the latest, evidence-based medical approaches and state-of-the-art technology to provide optimal outcomes for our patients.
