Brief History of the Chapter

The Japanese Society of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Surgery (JSHBPS) was founded in 1993 and currently holds 3668 members. We decided to function as a Japan Chapter for A-PHPBA/IHPBA in 2012. As of Mar. 2023, approximately 100 of our members are active members for A-PHPBA/IHPBA. We are encouraging our members to apply for the membership for A-PHPBA/IHPBA. We are heading towards internationalisation, most sessions at the JSHBPS annual meetings are held in English now, and welcome participants from overseas.
