This meeting is the largest scientific congress on the topic of coloproctology and colorectal surgery held by the European Society of Coloproctology each year. A large number of surgeons and physisician attending this congress. Updated topics in all aspects of the mentioned topics are discussed in this meeting in detail. I found the topics presented on colorectal surgery highly interesting. Video sessions reviewing surgical techniques for both colorectal cancers and anorectal problems were highly instructive. A group of topics including new approaches and debates on rectal cancers, laparoscopic techniques for colorectal patients and unusual anorectal diseases were interesting to me. |
