Marcos V. Perini is a Hepatobiliary Surgeon working in Melbourne at 145 Studley Road, Austin Health, Heidelberg, 3084, Australia.
As a hepatobiliary surgeon, he looks after people with problems in the liver, bile ducts, gallbladder, pancreas, and the connections between them. These issues can be complex, and symptoms can start in lots of ways, like pain in the abdomen, yellowing of the skin, blocked bile flow, or ongoing bleeding linked to liver disease.
In many cases, treatment involves carefully planned surgery. This can include procedures for liver and bile duct conditions, such as liver resection (hepatectomy), operations for bile duct obstruction, and surgery when there is infection or inflammation in the bile system. He also performs work related to the gallbladder, including gallbladder removal, when that is the right option for the patient.
Marcos also helps manage serious conditions that can affect the liver long term. That can include liver failure, portal hypertension, and issues like oesophageal varices. At times, people may be dealing with complications that lead to gastrointestinal bleeding, and surgical care may be part of a wider plan with other specialists.
Pancreas conditions are another key part of the role. This includes surgery for pancreatic cancer, and major procedures like pancreaticoduodenectomy, sometimes called a Whipple, along with pancreatectomy. He also treats problems involving the bile and pancreas together, including cholangitis and cholestasis.
There are also some rarer conditions that may need expert surgical input, including Budd-Chiari syndrome and schistosomiasis, plus conditions like Castleman disease and lymphoid hyperplasia. Depending on the situation, care can include procedures such as splenectomy and small bowel resection, where needed.
Marcos works within a hospital setting at Austin Health. His training and experience focus on safe, practical surgery for the liver, bile ducts, and pancreas, along with clear follow-up after the operation.
