Based on content from the two-volume Operative Techniques in Surgery, this volume describes surgical techniques in hepato-pancreato-biliary surgery. In 56 chapters, surgeons and other specialists from the US, Asia, Israel, and Spain describe surgeries of the biliary system, liver, pancreas, and spleen, as well as surgical management of portal hypertension, and include endoscopic and catheter-based therapies. For each type of surgery, they outline definitions, differential diagnosis, patient history and physical findings, imaging and other diagnostic studies, step-by-step instructions and intraoperative photos relating to surgical management and techniques, pearls and pitfalls, postoperative care, outcomes, and complications. They incorporate open operations, laparoscopic procedures, and new robotic approaches. Online access to an interactive ebook edition is included.
