10-Minute Experts Tuesday, May 3, 10:15 - 11:45 am CME Credit Hours: 1.5 In an evidence-based environment driven by research, data and outcomes, we often overlook the fact that surgery remains as much an art form as it is a field of science. Technical prowess not only requires the core procedural knowledge but also years of self-evaluation and evolution to become a ‘Expert’. This session will showcase nationally recognized master surgeons as they discuss their areas of expertise in a candid, informal format. The speakers will present a brief synopsis of their clinical / technical approach and the rationale behind doing it “their way”. Objectives At the conclusion of this session, participants should be able to: Evaluate the pros and cons of a variety of Total Neoadjuvant Therapy protocols and contemporary management of stage IV colorectal cancer. Explore the technical nuances of the LIFT procedure, parastomal hernia repair and modified two stage J-pouch procedure. Discuss the novel elements in SSI prevention bundles.
