Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

The Annals of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Surgery publishes research focused on surgical interventions and management of conditions affecting the liver, gallbladder, bile ducts, and pancreas. Articles frequently discuss surgical techniques, including minimally invasive approaches like laparoscopic and robotic surgery, and their comparative outcomes. The journal also covers the management of complications arising from these surgeries, such as fistulas and leaks, and explores the use of advanced technologies like 3D modeling in surgical planning and execution. Investigations into specific diseases like hepatocellular carcinoma, cholangiocarcinoma, and pancreatic cysts, as well as the assessment of surgical risk and patient outcomes, are also prominent.
