| dc.description.abstract | The year 2020 had a rough start with a global pandemic, the new Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19). The impact was so severe for long-time that many elective surgeries were cancelled, and numerous transplants were postponed, unless truly life-saving. Despite these hurdles in our daily practice, more than 100 expert academic physicians and surgeons from 22 different countries joined forces to form a Special Issue in Liver Transplantation and Hepatobiliary Surgery. This article summarizes the current status of liver transplantation (LT) and hepatobiliary surgery today, and what limits are being pushed and pursued in the future. One important goal of this Special Issue is to emphasize the close relationship of LT and hepatobiliary surgery, and how innovations in both fields align with one another. | en_US |
