First Robotic Pancreatectomy @ FSH
27/7/21 today at Fiona Stanley Hospital we undertook the first robotic distal pancreatectomy for pancreatic adenocarcinoma in Western Australia. Robotic surgery allows better visualisation and manipulation of the tissues than standard laparoscopic surgery and the indications for it are expanding quickly within General Surgery. Robotic surgery is available at Hollywood Private Hospital for liver and pancreas surgery plus complex abdominal hernia surgery including revision hiatus hernia repair.
ERCP Commences
ERCP performed at Hollywood Private Hospital.
On 30/9/2020 the first ERCP was performed in 15 years at Hollywood Private Hospital. This service relies on a combination of interventional endoscopy, radiology and anaesthesia. The case was performed in the theatre suite under sedation and the procedure was successful. Further cases are expected to follow as awareness surrounding this capability grows. In addition to elective cases at Hollywood, I am also doing a weekly list at Fiona Stanley comprising ERCP, complex endoscopy / stenting and management of bariatric complications.
Referrals for Urgent ERCP can be made by phone.
