Non-transplant surgery

Your task: Watch this video interview with Richard Laing, a General Surgical registrar currently researching Liver Transplantation at the University of Birmingham and the Queen Elizabeth Hospital, in which he discusses non-transplant related surgical options for patients with liver and biliary disease and highlights new technologies that surgeons can apply to save your liver. Reflect on any new information or ideas, and share your thoughts with other learners in the comments area.

Make sure you recognise his distinctions between surgery on the liver and surgery on the biliary system. You can look back to the activities in week one to remind you of these features.
