Flyer for one day seminar for surgeons and gastroenterologists showcasing innovative technologies in endosurgery and robotic surgery Sept 19, 2011 New Delhi

1. Endosurgery 2011
Auditorium, Apollo Hospital , New Delhi
Monday September 19th
This symposium is dedicated to revolutionizing patient care through the development of flexible surgery,
which is emerging from the convergence of laparoscopic surgery and therapeutic gastroenterology.
Flexible surgery minimizes the trauma of surgical access by taking advantage of natural orifices to
deliver surgical tools to targeted areas.
This will enable surgeons and gastroenterologists to offer less invasive treatment options for a variety of
gastrointestinal disorders (upper GI, bariatric and colorectal endosurgery ).
Who should attend ?
Consultant Doctors from Apollo Group
Endoscopic Interventional Gastroenterologists, Endocrinologists and Bariatric Surgeons.
Program Highlights
Presentation by Experts explaining Robotics, Endoscopic stitching and resection devices
Training and Credentialing modalities
Discussions on weight regain after bariatric surgery
Equipment demonstration and panel discussions on future of Endosurgery
