11. Visceral Surgery: -
visceral
Surgery deals with all aspects of the surgical treatment of benign and malignant diseases of abdominal organs (hepato-biliary and pancreatic
surgery including transplantation, splenic surgery), the entire gastrointestinal tract (esophageal, gastric, bariatric, small-bowel, colorectal and proctology surgery), endocrine organs, the abdominal wall (hernia
surgery and abdominal wall closure) and the peritoneum (peritonitis,
sepsis and peritoneal carcinomatosis). Minimally invasive and robotic
surgery has become increasingly important in many fields of visceral surgery. Fast-track concepts and an optimized perioperative care play a significant role for the patient outcome. Tissue substitutes like synthetic and biological meshes are today natural
aids for closure of abdominal fascia defects, replacement of anatomical structures, like the pelvic floor or prophylaxis against long term complications (recurrence, incisional hernia, etc.). Authors are encouraged to submit experimental or clinical studies to the above listed range of subtopics in visceral surgery.
