Pancreatic and Biliary Cancer Center

The Pancreatic and Biliary Cancer Center at Seoul National University Cancer Hospital

The Pancreatic and Biliary Cancer Center is in charge of the diagnosis and treatment of cancers in the pancreas, gallbladder, and biliary tract (surgery, endoscopy, and interventional procedures, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy). The center is in charge of the medical care for other diseases such as various precancerous lesions that can develop into cancer and borderline tumors with cancer-like tendency.

 

Optimal integrated care

Due to the complexity of pancreas and biliary tract and varied characteristics of pancreatic and biliary tumors, medical care for the tumors including diagnosis and treatment is very complex. Therefore, integrated medical care by experts from various fields is crucial. In the Pancreatic and Biliary Cancer Center at Seoul National University Cancer Hospital, the most suitable treatment strategy for each patient is determined and provided by medical professionals from the Departments of Hepatobiliary Pancreas Surgery, Gastroenterology, Hematologic Oncology, Radiology, Radiation Oncology, and Pathology. These experts have extensive clinical experience and professional knowledge and skills and work in organic cooperation with various departments.

For the diagnosis and treatment, more than 2,000 endoscopic procedures and 500 or more pancreatic and biliary tumor surgeries are performed per year. We have secured the world’s highest level of safety with lower rates of complication and mortality than those of the world’s leading hospitals and have maintained world-class treatment results.
