Summary
Hepato-pancreato-biliary (HPB) surgery is firmly established within the repertoire of modern general surgery. There are now specific teams for both pancreatic and liver surgery, but day-to-day management and decision-making for patients with these disorders remains the task of the general surgeon and presents often highly complex clinical scenarios. Covering the spectrum of common HPB diseases confronting the general surgeon, this book is a detailed guide to management in problems arising from cancer, trauma, cysts, and other conditions, both acute and chronic. Containing over 450 illustrations, this is an ideal reference tool for surgeons in practice and in training.
