Over the past decades significant progress has been noted in the field of surgical management of hepatobiliary tumors. Through an improved understanding of the function and anatomy of the liver, combined with progress made with regard to surgical techniques and accumulation of surgical experience, both short- and long-term outcomes following hepatectomy for primary and metastatic liver tumors have improved dramatically. More challenging liver resections with the use of traditional and cutting edge techniques are now feasible in the context of multidisciplinary team management.
The objective of our Research Topic is to shed light on the progress made in the past years in the field of surgical treatment of primary and metastatic hepatobiliary tumors, and on its future challenges to provide a thorough overview of the field as it presently stands. This article collection will review outcomes from traditionally used surgical interventions, as well as the cutting edge surgical techniques that are emerging in modern clinical practice. Our aim is to inspire, inform, and provide both direction and guidance to surgeons and researchers in the field.
In this Research Topic, we would like to share cutting-edge surgical skills, experience, methods and improve surgical efficiency. We strongly encourage authors to submit high-quality research articles focusing on updated surgical strategies and innovative multidisciplinary treatment protocols for the management of hepatobiliary tumors. Review articles, as well as original articles including meta-analyses, retrospective analysis, and prospective clinical studies are also welcome.
Please note: manuscripts that are solely based on bioinformatics or computational analysis of public databases without validation (independent cohort or biological validation in vitro or in vivo) are out of scope for this section and will not be accepted as part of this Research Topic.
