This recorded presentation was delivered at the AHPBA 2021 Annual Scientific Meeting and discusses current evidence regarding neoadjuvant therapy for pancreatic neuroendocrine tumours.
It focuses on patients with larger or more advanced tumours and explores how chemotherapy given before surgery may help shrink or control the tumour, making surgery possible. Some patients treated this way may experience longer-term disease control, although outcomes vary and treatment decisions are individualised.
This talk explores how modern liver surgery can be safely offered to older and frail patients who may otherwise struggle with major liver operations. It highlights a compassionate, patient-centred approach that combines careful planning with proven medical knowledge, and advanced robotic technology to tailor surgery to each individual. Using a real clinical case, it shows how robotic surgery can reduce physical stress on the body and support better recovery and outcomes.
Modern real-time image-guided liver surgery employs a patient-centered approach, enabling the precise removal of abnormal liver tissue while using real-time navigational guidance, often enhanced by robotic surgery technology.
A duodenectomy involves removing part of the small bowel, but this patient-centered approach allows surgeons to preserve vital nearby organs, such as the pancreas. Additionally, advancements in robotic surgery techniques enhance the precision of such procedures, making them safer and more effective for patients.
The information presented is general in nature and reflects available evidences at the time of presentations. It is not intended to replace consultation with a qualified medical practitioner.
