Life Kingsbury Hospital provides Pancreatectomy using contemporary hepatopancreatobiliary surgical techniques and evidence-based care. Founded in 1918, the accredited hospital is based in Cape Town, South Africa, with 212 beds and services for domestic and international patients.

The procedure removes the diseased portion of the pancreas while preserving healthy pancreatic tissue whenever possible. Surgical options vary according to the location and nature of the disease and may include distal, central, or total pancreatectomy. Before surgery, the multidisciplinary team reviews imaging, laboratory results, nutritional status, and pancreatic function to develop an individualised treatment plan.
