Hepatobiliary Cancer Surgery

Hepatobiliary cancer surgery involves the surgical treatment of cancers affecting the liver, bile ducts, and gallbladder. The main goal is to remove tumors, which may involve partial or complete removal of the organ affected. This type of surgery is often performed when the cancer is localized and has not spread to other areas. It can also include procedures to relieve symptoms or improve liver function. Given the complexity of these organs, such surgeries are typically carried out by specialized surgeons, and careful planning is essential to optimize outcomes for the patient.
