Robotic Bariatric Surgery Advanced Course
From 8-Dec

Minimally Invasive and Endoluminal Bariatric and Metabolic Surgery Advanced Course
Full immersion in bariatric surgery
Join our courses dedicated to robotic, minimally invasive and endoluminal bariatric surgery. These full immersion workshops are intended for bariatric surgeons, fellows, and residents in training across the world.
They have been structured to provide didactic lectures, surgical video demonstrations, and hands-on practice in standard bariatric surgery on ex-vivo models and live tissue, or anatomical specimens.
In addition to this laparoscopic training, an optional prior 2-day course will provide a unique opportunity to discover or improve skills in robotic bariatric surgery.
It is a perfect way for surgeons already familiar with laparoscopic techniques to complete their skills.
A panel of world-renowned leaders in this field of expertise will deliver lectures focusing on bariatric surgery including standard techniques, pitfalls, complications, and redo surgery.
