Is your work a fit? Check before you submit

  1. Confirm that the work addresses hepato-pancreato-biliary surgery or care.
  2. Decide whether a written or video abstract best presents the work.
  3. Report patient numbers, outcome definitions and follow-up clearly within the abstract limits.
  4. Check ethical approval, consent requirements for video material and submission rules on the official page.
  5. Submit a complete, co-author-approved abstract before 7 January 2027.

Why This Conference Matters

Hepato-pancreato-biliary surgery involves complex procedures with significant risks, and outcomes depend on surgical technique, patient selection and multidisciplinary care. A biennial congress dedicated to this field brings together surgeons, hepatologists, oncologists and radiologists from Europe and Africa, giving presenters a specialist audience for clinical results and technical innovations. The option of video abstracts allows surgeons to share operative techniques directly, while written abstracts support the exchange of outcome data and research findings.

What Reviewers Typically Value

  1. Outcome studies that report complications and survival using standard definitions.
  2. Video submissions that demonstrate a reproducible technique with clear educational value.
  3. Comparative studies of minimally invasive and open approaches with transparent methods.
  4. Research on care pathways that improve patient selection or recovery.
