Abstract
From Friday 13th to Sunday 15th October this year, the inaugural meeting of the Hepato-Pancreatico-Biliary Association of South African (HPBASA) was held in the Sandton Convention Centre. Organised by Professor Martin Smith and Dr Jose Ramos on behalf of the founding committee, this meeting was decidedly not dominated by any group, but was rather specifically meant as a multidisciplinary gathering of those interested in liver and pancreatic disease. Radiology was represented by a number of our group, as were radiation oncologists, nuclear medicine physicians, surgeons, physicians, anaesthetists, the medical funders and the ultimate arbiters, the pathologists. Regrettably, one of the liver pathology pioneers, Professor Pauline Hall, was unable to be present.
