Conference Description :
The theme of this Conference “(R)evolutions in Minimally Invasive and Thyroid Surgery” will underpin the most recent innovations in minimally invasive surgery and NOTES in general and in thyroid surgery in particular. This year’s special focus on thyroid surgery comes in parallel with the worldwide breakthrough and clinical implementation of the totally scarless transoral thyroidectomy, a technique developed in 2008 in Berlin under the auspices of the New European Surgical Academy (NESA).

Our two-day conference will consist of expert keynote lectures, breakthrough sessions and surgical videos performed by master international surgeons to help our surgeons provide better patient care. We aim to bring a comprehensive look at new techniques and technologies, in addition to offering valuable insights into the future of the constantly evolving minimally invasive surgery field.

Besides the brand-new transoral neck surgery, this event will also explore the frontiers of intrauterine minimally invasive fetoscopy interventions during pregnancy and the development of the new robotic generation.There will be endless opportunities for participants to learn from worldwide leading experts who shape the future of minimally invasive surgeries. This unique event is a fertile ground for the development of academic and research relationships that advance the practice of surgery for all involved.
