AboutAbout the lab
Creating the future of gastroenterological surgery through passing on skills and innovation
The Gastroenterological Surgery II Lab belongs to the Department of Surgery at Osaka University Graduate School of Medicine, and conducts research and education in surgery that treats diseases of the digestive organs by operation.
The lab's website introduces the whole department as "Surgery, Gastroenterological Surgery," and is not a page for Gastroenterological Surgery II alone.
In clinical care, the department treats malignant tumors of the esophagus, stomach, colon, liver, biliary tract, and pancreas, and also provides surgical treatment such as liver transplantation, pancreas transplantation, and inflammatory bowel disease.
The staff are divided into fields such as upper gastrointestinal, lower gastrointestinal, hepato-biliary-pancreatic, and chemotherapy, and provide clinical care in each.
The department's greeting from 2019 states that it is also actively conducting clinical research with an eye to future medicine, such as cancer immunotherapy and regenerative medicine.
