Qualifications

Dr Perini MD, PhD, FRACS is a surgeon-scientist who has dedicated his life to caring for patients with liver, bile duct and pancreas diseases. He is a highly experienced surgeon in his speciality, having performed more than two hundred liver transplants, countless liver surgeries and pancreatic cancer resections, including major vascular reconstructions and multi organ resections. These complex surgeries demand great expertise, a multidisciplinary approach and technical skills to achieve good outcomes. Moreover, Dr Perini is highly committed to patient care and seeks a personalised approach to best address each patient's needs.

Dr Perini has been continually working to improve his knowledge and contribute to further evolving techniques and treatments for liver, bile duct, and pancreas tumours in the research field. He has published more than ninety articles in peer-reviewed journals and over twenty book chapters. Dr Perini has been invited to lecture at many international conferences and congresses in recognition of his expertise. He also holds a Master's and a PhD in Science and has been responsible for supervising many PhD candidates at The University of Melbourne and training young surgeons at the Department of Surgery, Austin Hospital.

Currently, Dr Perini works as a Consultant Surgeon in the HPB and Liver Transplant Unit at Austin Hospital and is an Associate Professor of Surgery at The University of Melbourne. He has been working in both places for the past nine years. He completed his fellowship at Austin Hospital and underwent a sub-specialisation in HPB and Liver Transplantation Surgery in Brazil, and the USA, where he studied at the Mayo Clinic Rochester and Medical College of Wisconsin.

Liver surgery and transplantations have been his passion since he started medical training. Early in his career, he developed an interest in liver surgery; one of his first scientific publications was about biliary anatomy applied to liver transplantation. He completed an elective rotation in the Liver Transplant Unit at the University of Bologna, Italy.

Dr Perini graduated from the University of Sao Paulo, Brazil, which is considered the best medical university in Latin America.
