Abstract

In the last two decades enhanced recovery pathways (ERP) have been successfully implemented in various fields of surgery, notably in colorectal surgery where numerous meta-analyses have shown lower complication rates associated with reduced postoperative stay and diminished hospital costs. Following these encouraging results, ERP have been progressively implemented to hepato-pancreato-biliary (HPB) surgery, which is traditionally considered as high-risk surgery.
