Dear SICP Members, the study group of “Pediatric Endoscopic and Mini-invasive Surgery” was born at the initiative of some members.
I want to remember that the spirit of this group is born in accordance with articles 35, 36 and 37 of our statute and in particular the felt need for a greater exchange of experiences and to obtain a thorough knowledge of the problems that “Endoscopic and minimally invasive surgery “Entails, given its consolidated dissemination and technological development that in recent years has also strongly characterized our discipline. The Study Group will meet periodically, at the initiative of the Coordinator and at the meetings, whose calendar will be publicized through the Company’s website and with the E-mail, all Shareholders can participate, without the obligation to pay any fee.
It is obviously necessary for the growth of the group & nbsp; your direct participation and above all your contact to communicate promptly.
The suggestion of topics and topics will be much appreciated in such a way that these can be debated, treated in our meetings and gutted in every aspect from the physio-pathology to the technical notes.
From the real comparison within the group, guidelines can be promoted for the single pathologies that are increasingly becoming important not only from a scientific point of view but also from a legal point of view.
No less important is the scientific research that the Group intends to disseminate and develop, given the many multi-disciplinary aspects that this topic involves. With this spirit and renewed commitment, we address to all Members the invitation to participate.
