Abstract
in English, French

During the last decade minimal invasive approach progressed in all sectors of abdominal surgery. Technological improvements allowed to perform more complex procedures laparoscopically with increased safety. The implementation of pre-, per- and postoperative protocols with an adaptation of surgical, anesthetic and analgesia methods and the patient's involvement in the healing process led to enhanced recovery after surgery. The centralization of complex esophageal and pancreatic surgery established the CHU of Liège as a tertiary referral institution for complex oncological surgery thanks to a large cooperation with regional hospitals.

La dernière décennie a vu progresser l’approche mini-invasive dans tous les domaines de la chirurgie abdominale. Les améliorations technologiques permettent de réaliser des interventions toujours plus complexes en laparoscopie avec une sécurité accrue. La systématisation de la prise en charge pré-, per- et postopératoire, avec une adaptation des techniques de chirurgie, d’anesthésie et d’analgésie, et une implication du patient dans ce processus ont abouti à une réhabilitation accélérée. La centralisation de la chirurgie complexe de l’oesophage et du pancréas a permis de créer une structure de référence en chirurgie oncologique complexe au CHU de Liège grâce à une large collaboration interhospitalière régionale.
