Hepato-bilio-pancreatic surgery (HBP) and liver transplantation

Until 2017, this group was constituted as a consolidated group in the VHIR under the name of "Digestive Transplants" with a consolidated research trajectory. Our group has two large areas of research: liver transplantation, which is cross-sectional adult-pediatric and; on the other hand, research, specifically in the fields of liver resections, liver cancer (primary or metastatic), biliary cancer, pancreatic cancer and pancreatitis. Both areas have very innovative aspects, with translational objectives, including artificial intelligence, transcriptomics and molecular biology.

The general objective of the liver transplant research area is to improve the preservation of liver grafts, as well as increase the survival of grafts and transplant patients. The research area related to cancer or acute pancreatitis has as a general objective to improve the management and treatment of patients with pancreatitis, as well as to improve the diagnosis and survival of cancer patients.
