What diseases can be treated by hepatobiliary surgeons?
Hepatobiliary surgeons perform operations on the liver. This area also contains the gallbladder with ducts, the pancreas with ducts, and the duodenum. Sometimes the intervention also affects the stomach, small and large intestines, for example, in the case of cancer surgery.
Hepatobiliary surgery can be used for treating the following diseases:
- oncological diseases: cholangiocarcinoma, Klatskin tumor, liver cancer, and liver metastases;
- liver abscess;
- hemangiomas and other vascular neoplasms;
- liver echinococcosis;
- liver necrosis;
- mechanical jaundice.
Doctors abroad perform liver resection, remove malignant tumors, cysts, vascular neoplasms, perform bile discharge surgery, liver transplants, and other interventions on the hepatobiliary system. Some operations can be performed with a minimally invasive laparoscopic technique through short abdominal incisions. Doctors also perform minimally invasive procedures, such as percutaneous abscess puncture and radiofrequency or microwave ablation to treat tumors.
Why is it best to have liver surgery abroad?
Healthcare professionals in Germany use the latest methods of surgical treatment of diseases of the hepatobiliary system. Doctors successfully perform even the most complex interventions.
Operations on the liver are among the most complex interventions. Therefore, the number of successful operations and the risk of complications vary greatly in different countries and at different hospitals. The effectiveness of surgical treatment and its safety depend on the experience and skill of surgeons as well as on the equipment of the medical center.
There are specialized Hepatobiliary Surgery Centers abroad where doctors have extensive experience in the surgical treatment of even rare diseases. They annually perform dozens of operations on the liver and bile ducts, so they perform them efficiently and with good results.
In developed countries, they use new technologies in hepatobiliary surgery, perform laparoscopic and robot-assisted operations, if necessary, use virtual 3D modeling when planning an intervention, intraoperative imaging, and modern methods of stopping bleeding from the liver parenchyma.
Principles followed by hepatobiliary surgeons in the treatment of liver diseases include:
- preservation of as much healthy liver parenchyma as possible so as not to disrupt the function of the organ;
- achievement of minimal blood loss during the intervention;
- segment-oriented liver resections are preferred over major operations;
- a laparoscopic surgical approach is preferred.
