Hepato-pancreato-biliary surgery in West Africa: a timely capacity assessment
Background
West Africa has among the highest rates of hepato-pancreato-biliary (HPB) malignancies in the world. Although surgery is critical for treatment, the availability of HPB surgery in Africa is unknown. This cross-sectional study investigated the current HPB surgical capacity of West African hospitals.
Method
The Surgeons OverSeas Personnel, Infrastructure, Procedure, Equipment, and Supplies (PIPES) survey was modified to include HPB-specific parameters and quantify capacity. The survey was completed by consultant surgeons from West Africa. A PIPES index was calculated, and a higher score corresponded to greater HPB surgical capacity.
Results
The HPB PIPES survey was completed by 35 institutions from The Gambia, Ghana, Ivory Coast, and Nigeria. Most institutions (94.2%) were tertiary referral centres; five had an HPB-trained surgeon. The most commonly available procedure was an open cholecystectomy (91.4%), followed by gastric bypass (88.6%). Major hepatic resections (14.3%) and the Whipple procedure (17.1%) were rare. ICU capabilities were present at 88.6% of facilities while interventional radiology was present in 25.7%.
Conclusions
This is the first HPB capacity assessment in Africa. This study showed the limited availability of HPB surgery in West Africa. These results can be used for regional quality improvement initiatives and as a baseline for future capacity assessments.
期刊介绍：
HPB is an international forum for clinical, scientific and educational communication.
Twelve issues a year bring the reader leading articles, expert reviews, original articles, images, editorials, and reader correspondence encompassing all aspects of benign and malignant hepatobiliary disease and its management. HPB features relevant aspects of clinical and translational research and practice.
Specific areas of interest include HPB diseases encountered globally by clinical practitioners in this specialist field of gastrointestinal surgery. The journal addresses the challenges faced in the management of cancer involving the liver, biliary system and pancreas. While surgical oncology represents a large part of HPB practice, submission of manuscripts relating to liver and pancreas transplantation, the treatment of benign conditions such as acute and chronic pancreatitis, and those relating to hepatobiliary infection and inflammation are also welcomed. There will be a focus on developing a multidisciplinary approach to diagnosis and treatment with endoscopic and laparoscopic approaches, radiological interventions and surgical techniques being strongly represented. HPB welcomes submission of manuscripts in all these areas and in scientific focused research that has clear clinical relevance to HPB surgical practice.
HPB aims to help its readers - surgeons, physicians, radiologists and basic scientists - to develop their knowledge and practice. HPB will be of interest to specialists involved in the management of hepatobiliary and pancreatic disease however will also inform those working in related fields.
