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:
  1. Evaluate the pros and cons of a variety of Total Neoadjuvant Therapy protocols and contemporary management of stage IV colorectal cancer.
  2. Explore the technical nuances of the LIFT procedure, parastomal hernia repair and modified two stage J-pouch procedure.
  3. Discuss the novel elements in SSI prevention bundles.
