About Hepatobiliary Cancer Surgery

Hepatobiliary cancers develop in the organs involved in producing, storing, and transporting bile, including the liver, gallbladder, and bile ducts. These cancers may cause symptoms such as abdominal pain, yellowing of the skin or eyes, unexplained weight loss, loss of appetite, and swelling in the abdomen. Some patients may not experience noticeable symptoms in the early stages. Early diagnosis and proper medical evaluation are important for determining the most suitable treatment.
Hepatobiliary Cancer Surgery involves removing cancerous tissue from the affected organ when surgery is an appropriate treatment option. Depending on the type, location, and stage of cancer, surgery may involve removing part of the liver, the gallbladder, or the affected bile ducts. In selected cases, nearby tissues or lymph nodes may also need to be removed. Additional treatments, such as chemotherapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy, or other specialised procedures, may be recommended depending on the patient's condition.
