Hepatopancreaticobiliary surgical topics include severity of acute pancreatitis, enhanced recovery programmes, and the management of hepatocellular carcinoma. Breast surgical topics include breast conservation after neoadjuvant chemotherapy and personalised cancer surgery. The management of maxillofacial trauma is becoming increasingly important and this subject is also included. The outcome following lower limb arterial angioplasty is an important topical issue.
