Advanced HPB Surgery and Liver Transplantation: Leading Care and Innovation
Introduction to HPB Surgery and Liver Transplantation
Our institution specializes in cutting-edge Hepato-Pancreato-Biliary (HPB) surgery and liver transplantation. We offer expert treatment for complex conditions affecting the liver, pancreas, gallbladder, and bile ducts. Our team of HPB surgeons, hepatologists, and support staff provide the highest standard of patient care. We focus on innovative techniques and personalized treatment plans for optimal outcomes.
Comprehensive HPB Surgery: Precision and Expertise
Liver Resection Surgery
We perform liver resection surgery to remove liver tumors (both malignant and benign). We use advanced imaging like 3D liver mapping and intraoperative ultrasound for precise planning and execution. We specialize in both major liver resections and minor liver resections, preserving healthy liver tissue. Our minimally invasive laparoscopic liver resection techniques reduce recovery time and complications.
Pancreatic Surgery
We offer pancreatic surgery for conditions like pancreatic cancer, chronic pancreatitis, and pancreatic cysts. We perform complex surgeries, including the Whipple procedure (pancreaticoduodenectomy) and distal pancreatectomy, focusing on preserving pancreatic function. Our approach combines preoperative planning with advanced intraoperative guidance for the best possible results. We provide comprehensive postoperative care, including nutritional support and long-term follow-up.
Gallbladder and Biliary Tract Surgery
We manage diseases of the gallbladder and biliary tract, like gallstones, cholangiocarcinoma, and bile duct injuries. We offer both open and laparoscopic cholecystectomies and complex bile duct reconstructions. Our minimally invasive procedures ensure reduced pain, shorter hospital stays, and faster recovery.
Liver Transplantation: A Lifesaving Procedure
Living Donor Liver Transplantation
We are leaders in living donor liver transplantation (LDLT). This procedure involves transplanting a portion of a healthy liver into a recipient, saving lives and reducing waiting times. Our meticulous preoperative assessment and surgical expertise ensure the safety of both donor and recipient.
Deceased Donor Liver Transplantation
Our deceased donor liver transplantation program provides a robust and ethical framework for organ allocation. We work with national and international organ donation networks to ensure timely and appropriate matches for our patients. Our advanced surgical techniques and comprehensive immunosuppressive therapy contribute to excellent graft survival rates.
Multidisciplinary Approach to Patient Care
Our success in HPB surgery and liver transplantation is due to our multidisciplinary approach. Each patient's case is reviewed by a team of surgeons, hepatologists, oncologists, radiologists, and anesthesiologists to optimize care. This collaborative approach extends to postoperative care, where our team manages all aspects of recovery, including physical rehabilitation, nutritional support, and psychological counseling.
Innovations in HPB Surgery and Transplantation
Minimally Invasive Techniques
We are at the forefront of adopting minimally invasive techniques in HPB surgery and liver transplantation, including laparoscopic and robotic-assisted surgeries. These techniques offer benefits like reduced blood loss, fewer complications, and faster recovery.
Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) Protocols
We implement Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols to improve patient outcomes. These protocols include preoperative counseling, optimized anesthesia, and early postoperative mobilization to reduce hospital stays and accelerate recovery.
