Track: Gastrointestinal, Colon and Rectal Surgery

Session Overview

This session delves into the latest advances in gastrointestinal (GI), colon, and rectal surgery, focusing on innovative techniques, emerging research, and best practices for managing diseases of the digestive tract. With an emphasis on minimally invasive approaches, robotic surgery, and precision medicine, this session will explore how these developments are reshaping the treatment landscape for patients with gastrointestinal disorders, colorectal cancer, inflammatory bowel diseases, and other related conditions. Attendees will gain insights into the evolving role of surgery in these specialties and how multidisciplinary care models are improving patient outcomes.

• Minimally Invasive Gastrointestinal Surgery

• Colorectal Cancer Surgery and Treatment

• Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) Surgery

• Robotic-Assisted Gastrointestinal Surgery

• Advanced Laparoscopic and Endoscopic Techniques

• Surgical Management of Obesity

• Rectal and Anal Disorders

• Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) Protocols in GI Surgery

• Postoperative Care and Complications

Sub-Tracks:

The session is divided into key sub-tracks to ensure a more focused and in-depth exploration of critical topics:

Minimally Invasive Approaches in Colorectal Surgery

• Focus on laparoscopy, robotic surgery, and single-port surgery for colorectal cancer and benign conditions.

• The role of transanal minimally invasive surgery (TAMIS) in treating rectal cancers.

Gastrointestinal Cancer Surgery

• Advances in surgical treatment for esophageal, gastric, and colorectal cancers.

• The role of multimodal therapy, including surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation, in the treatment of GI cancers.

Bariatric and Metabolic Surgery

• Innovations in surgical treatment for obesity and metabolic disorders.

• Long-term outcomes of bariatric surgery, including weight loss and the management of comorbid conditions like type 2 diabetes.

Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) Surgery

• Surgical management of Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis.

• Role of ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) and restorative proctocolectomy in IBD patients.

Advanced Endoscopy and Laparoscopy Techniques

• Innovations in minimally invasive techniques for colorectal cancer, gastrointestinal bleeding, and benign diseases.

• The role of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) and full-thickness resection in treating early-stage GI cancers.

Rectal Cancer Surgery and Sphincter Preservation

• Advances in total mesorectal excision (TME) and transanal techniques for rectal cancer.

• The future of robotic-assisted sphincter-preserving surgery and its impact on patient quality of life.

Surgical Innovations for GI Disorders

• Novel approaches for treating esophageal disorders, such as achalasia and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).

• Advances in the treatment of small bowel diseases, such as Crohn’s disease and volvulus.

Postoperative Care and Outcomes in GI Surgery

• Implementing ERAS protocols in gastrointestinal and colorectal surgeries.

• Approaches to managing complications and improving outcomes through innovative postoperative care.

Interactive Components

• Panel Discussions: Engage with experts on topics such as advanced colorectal surgery, bariatric surgery, and the future of minimally invasive techniques.

• Workshops and Live Demonstrations: Hands-on sessions on robotic surgery, laparoscopic techniques, and advanced endoscopic procedures.

• Case Studies: Participate in clinical case discussions, focusing on complex GI, colon, and rectal surgery cases.
