Isolated Hepatic Perfusion: Treating Unresectable Liver Metastases -- Management of Common Bile Duct Stones in the Era of Laparoscopic Surgery -- Split-Liver Transplantation -- Surgery and Chemotherapy Combined for Colorectal Liver Metastases -- Radio Frequency Assisted Liver Resection: The Habib's Technique -- Radio Frequency-Assisted Liver Resection: Experience of Italian Hepatic Surgery Unit -- Hepatic Surgery for Metastatic Gastrointestinal Neuroendocrine Tumors -- Electrodes and Multiple Electrode Systems for Radio Frequency Ablation: A Proposal for Updated Terminology -- Minimal Blood Loss Radio Frequency Assisted Liver Resection Technique -- Islet Cell Allotransplantation: Development of a Clinical Programme in West London -- Whole Organ Pancreas Transplantation -- Pancreatic Cancer-Are There New Treatment Options? -- Current Practice in Pancreatic Surgery. The aim of this book is to present a unique compilation of lectures given by international speakers at the Hammersmith Hospital during the recent Meetings in Hepato-Pancreato-Biliary and Transplantation. New therapeutical approaches, advances in oncology and in diagnostic imaging, which reduce the need for invasive techniques and reach an improvement in survival and quality of life in cancer, are considered in this book. Modern literature has been reviewed with special reference to articles of general interest. In the clinical management of patients with liver, bile duct and pancreas diseases, it is important to assess the degree of disturbance and to diagnose the causative insult, and therefore clinical and laboratory methods of assessing each of these pathologies are of high interest. This version is an up-to-date account of diseases of the liver, biliary tract and pancreas, including transplantation, which we trust will be of value for surgeons, physicians and pathologists and also a reference book for medical students. |
