ECC Spring offers 64 Expert Lectures and interaction opportunities with key opinion leaders in colorectal surgery from all over Europe. It relies on a decade-long friendship with a large and diverse Faculty and an expert Sounding Board to provide an unparalleled didactic experience with up to 27 CME credits achievable. It can be enjoyed onsite in the medieval city of Fribourg, Switzerland or virtually from abroad.

The 2024 programme has been designed with audience participation and covers the full breadth and depth of contemporary colorectal surgery. Collaborations and joint sessions with major international surgical and gastroenterological societies further ensure high content validity and relevance to clinical practice. Expect the latest knowledge and care recommendations in surgical techniques, prevention & management of complications, cancer, and inflammatory bowel diseases.

Two Masterclass in Colorectal Surgery and in Proctology & Pelvic Floor Diseases are offered on Sunday 14.04.2024. They were designed with Janindra Warusavitarne, St. Marks London and Education Chair of the European Society of Coloproctology to provide in-depth and interactive learning of topics paramount to the safe practice of colorectal surgery. As such, ECC Spring Masterclass are ideally suited to prepare for sitting the EBSQ Coloproctology exam or to refresh knowledge.

Also on Sunday, an Advanced Robotic course allows for small group learning from Master Surgeons with a focus on robotic right colectomy and hands-on training on performing an intracorporeal bowel anastomosis.

Fusion Conferences

The past ten years have seen an explosion of information regarding stem cells (SCs) within the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, due to an improved ability to identify SCs, follow their fates, and manipulate them in vitro. The next frontier in the field of GI stem cell biology is understanding the role that dysregulated ISC behavior plays in the etiology of numerous diseases, and conversely, the impact of GI diseases on proper SC function. This meeting will bring together a diverse group of investigators to discuss topics such as how the environment of the esophagus, stomach, small intestine and colon impacts SC behavior in healthy and diseased states, how SC behaviour and the niche differ along the proximal-distal axis of the GI tract, and the strengths of various models for investigating the relationship between gastrointestinal SCs, the niche, and the onset and propagation of disease states.

European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO)

Brought to you by the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO), the congress will be the place to present very impactful new data in GI oncology. The scientific sessions will be complemented with high quality educational sessions and excellent networking opportunities.

In recent years we have seen remarkable progress in the treatment options available for patients with GI cancers and ESMO is committed to ensuring that there is a clear roadmap to help facilitate the implementation of new practice changing discoveries in the clinic for the benefit of all patients with GI cancers and whose wellbeing is our primary concern. The ESMO Gastrointestinal Cancers Congress will provide global visibility for original clinical and translational research.

European Helicobacter and Microbiota Study Group

The European Helicobacter and Microbiota Study Group (EHMSG) is a multidisciplinary group composed of representatives from most countries of the EU. It was founded in 1987 by a collaboration of pioneers in the field of Helicobacter and expanded its remit in 2016 to embrace the collective gastrointestinal microbiota. This includes dissemination of medical, scientific and technical information in order to promote health and decrease the burden of digestive diseases.

Each year, EHMSG hosts a conference consisting of a one-day postgraduate course followed by a 2-day workshop.
