Gastrointestinal Tumor Control and Organ Regeneration Surgery Lab
Machine-translated · View original
An endowed-department lab that works to improve surgery for gastrointestinal cancers and takes on the challenge of organ regeneration.
AboutAbout the lab
Advancing cancer surgery and regenerating lost organs.
The Gastrointestinal Tumor Control and Organ Regeneration Surgery Lab is an endowed department within the Department of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic and Transplant Surgery.
The lab conducts practical research to improve the outcomes of surgical treatment for malignant tumors of the gastrointestinal tract, liver, biliary tract, and pancreas.
The lab also studies organ regeneration using regenerative medicine methods, addressing organ defects and organ failure caused by cancer treatment.
The lab also aims to build a system that widely shares its research results and surgical techniques with medical students and young physicians, and that trains the surgeons of the future.
Key terms
- Regenerative medicine
- Medicine that uses stem cells and other methods to restore the function of lost organs or tissues
- Tissue engineering
- Technology that combines cells and materials to create body tissue
- Organ failure
- A condition in which an organ's function has declined severely and the body can no longer be sustained
ResearchResearch themes
The lab conducts research and education to improve treatments for malignant tumors of the gastrointestinal tract, liver, biliary tract, and pancreas, to advance regenerative medicine, and to train future surgeons and supervising physicians.

For patients with malignant tumors of the gastrointestinal tract, liver, biliary tract, and pancreas, the lab works to improve and personalize surgical techniques, and conducts basic and clinical research aimed at clarifying disease mechanisms and improving prognosis.
*Illustrative imageResearch on Organ Regeneration
Focusing on the repair of organ damage caused by malignant tumors, the lab uses stem cells and tissue engineering to clarify how organs regenerate, and conducts research on cell transplantation and the creation of artificial organs.
