Take advantage of this unique online catch-up opportunity to improve your skills and update your knowledge in an increasingly important medical specialty in modern medicine"

In the last decade, Hepatobiliary Oncologic Surgery has experienced a great advance in the understanding of the surgical anatomy of the liver, biliary tract, and the application of minimally invasive surgical techniques. The importance of this medical specialty lies in the fact that liver and biliary tract tumors represent a significant burden to world health, due to their high incidence and mortality.

Hepatobiliary Oncologic Surgery focuses on diagnosing and treating liver tumors, biliary tract tumors and liver metastases effectively and preserving liver and biliary function. In order to improve specialization in this specialty, TECH has designed this Postgraduate certificate in Hepatobiliary Oncologic Surgery, aimed at physicians specializing in general surgery, digestive surgery, oncology, interventional radiology, among others.

This Postgraduate certificate in Hepatobiliary Oncologic Surgery of TECH addresses specific topics in two modules, covering from the surgical anatomy of the liver and biliary tract, diagnostic tests in hepatobiliary pathology, assessment of residual liver volume and function, principles of liver surgery, to surgery of biliary tract tumors, endoscopic and interventional treatment of bile duct and gallbladder tumors, and liver metastases of colorectal cancer, neuroendocrine, and others.

Advances in Hepatobiliary Oncologic Surgery have led to the application of less invasive surgical techniques, such as laparoscopic and robotic surgery, which allow for faster patient recovery and a reduction in postoperative complications. In addition, Hepatobiliary Oncological Surgery has experienced a significant advance in the identification of new biomarkers and specific therapies for liver tumors, which has significantly improved patient survival.

For all of the above reasons, studying TECH's Postgraduate certificate in Hepatobiliary Oncologic Surgery represents a unique opportunity for health professionals to update their knowledge and improve their surgical skills in a medical specialty in constant evolution.
