Advanced Upper Gastrointestinal Robotic Surgery Course

This course is designed for surgeons to enhance their skills in upper gastrointestinal robotic surgery. It offers lectures and hands-on training in robotic techniques, with experienced faculty offering tips and guidance for surgical techniques.

Description

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

• Understand the fundamentals of upper gastrointestinal robotic surgery

• Apply proficiency in instruments and system operation

• Employ advanced techniques to perform complex upper gastrointestinal robotic procedures.

• Includes benign (including bariatric, cholecystectomy, and Hiatal Hernia repair) and malignant UGI resections (esophagectomy and gastrectomy), tailored to participants’ specific interests.

• Short video presentations of all procedures.

 

ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA FOR CANDIDATES

• Senior trainees/fellows who finished or about to finish training

• Consultants in their early robotic career

• UK-based or international

• Had completed basic robotic training
