SGH reaches major milestone performing its 1000th minimally-invasive liver resection in early 2023. SGH is o
ne of
only a few institutions globally to reach this milestone. Case was an elderly patient with a giant 14-cm liver cancer who underwent laparoscopic right hepatectomy.
Multiple research studies have demonstrated that major HPB surgeries are best performed in specialized tertiary centers performing a high volume of cases for the best outcomes. High-volume centers are those performing over 35 pancreatoduodenectomies/ Whipples procedure per annum and over 20 minimally-invasive pancreatoduodenectomies per annum [15-16].
The department is presently one of the highest-volume and most experienced subspecialty departments in Southeast Asia currently performing about 400 major subspecialty HPB surgeries per annum (including > 200 major liver surgeries and > 100 major pancreatic surgeries per annum). As of 2022, it has performed over 4000 major liver surgeries and close to 2000 major pancreatic surgeries since the year 2000.
All patients undergoing major surgeries are cared for at Singapore General Hospital which is well-recognized globally for its high quality of care as evidenced by it being consistently ranked amongst the top hospitals in the world and top hospital in Asia according to the prestigious Newsweek annual rankings.
Enquiring patients and referring physicians, please email:
hpbsurgery@sgh.com.sg
Information regarding diagnosis/condition and treatment/surgery required would be useful.
