SUMMARY:BGES-BAST Abdominal Cadaver Course 2024 - Lower GI
DESCRIPTION:BGES-BAST ABDOMINAL CADAVER COURSE 2024 \n\nCourse Objectives \nMinimally invasive surgery is the gold standard in surgical practice.

These experienced surgeons will guide trainees through the challenges and complexities of each procedure. Each participant will have the opportunity to perform at least one procedure in a human cadaver as a first surgeon.
