Our goal is to provide exquisite, professional medical technology and high-quality, efficient nursing services, using advanced, high-tech means, with the mission of making patients healthy and satisfied.

The department's daily diagnostic and treatment work is grounded in common and frequently occurring diseases of general surgery, adhering to hepatobiliary-pancreatic surgery, liver transplantation, and gastrointestinal surgery as the specialty's development features; it has outstanding characteristics and rich experience in the diagnosis and surgical treatment, comprehensive treatment, and conversion therapy of difficult and complex hepatobiliary-pancreatic diseases and gastrointestinal tumors. Under the leadership of Director Xu Lishan, in the field of hepatobiliary surgery the department was among the earliest in the three northeastern provinces to carry out ALPPS surgery, autologous tissue flap repair of biliary strictures, and ex vivo liver resection + autologous liver transplantation. It routinely performs minimally invasive surgery for choledocholithiasis and gallbladder stones, as well as day surgery. In the field of gastrointestinal surgery, the department routinely performs radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer, extended radical surgery, CME surgery for colon cancer, TME for rectal cancer, radical surgery preserving the pelvic autonomic nerves, and anus-preserving surgery for low and ultra-low rectal lesions. In recent years, the department has carried out and promoted "da Vinci" robotic surgery in the province, having completed a cumulative total of more than 200 robotic pancreaticoduodenectomies, pancreatic body-tail resections, radical resections of hilar cholangiocarcinoma, liver resections for liver cancer, radical resections of rectal cancer, and radical gastrectomies, filling more than 10 gaps at the provincial level.
