INTRODUCTION
CONCEPT
The Ecole Européenne de Chirurgie invites you to
participate in a laparoscopic colorectal masterclass.
Prof. Brice Gayet
Head of the Department of
Medical and Surgical Digestive
Diseases, Institut Mutualiste
Montsouris, Paris, and director
of the masterclass on colorectal
surgery at the EEC
The rapid growth in diagnostic techniques and the
treatment of medical diseases make the ongoing
education of surgeons essential. Increasingly,
surgeons must exercise their profession by
defining quality criteria in order to gain their
patients’ confidence and to justify their fee scales.
The assurance of quality and safety is a criterion
increasingly demanded by patients, who are now
better informed, and by private as well as public
health-care administrators responsible for the funding
and reimbursement of health-care expenditure. In
order to ensure optimal quality of surgical practice in
France, in Europe and around the world, it appeared
essential to create a school of surgery designed
to provide periodic retraining (every five years) of
surgeons right from the beginning of their specialist
practice.
The Ecole Européenne de Chirurgie combines
academics and health-care system professionals in a
joint project of retraining in knowledge and practical
skills adapted to the demands of maximum medical
quality.
The programme deals with the laparoscopic
technology applied to the complexity of a colorectal
operation. It includes practical instructions, the
execution of colorectal resection on fresh human
cadavers under the direction of the course faculty, and
interactive live sessions.
This masterclass is designed for digestive surgeons
who already have experience in laparoscopy and open
colorectal surgery.
