MASTERCLASS
Description
Chair: T. Wiggers, NL – L. Påhlman, SE – K. Havenga, NL
AIMS AND OBJECTIVES
Based on knowledge of total mesocolon and total mesorectal surgery and imaging before the operation, after the Masterclass participants will be able to answer the 10 following questions:
1. Is screening to be implemented?
2. How does staging influence clinical decision making?
3. Which information may influence treatment choices?
4. Where do I damage the autonomic nerve plexus?
5. How and when can I minimize the procedure?
6. How do I position the patient for the perineal phase and perform a wide
excision for low rectal cancers?
7. How do I deal with the loss of a pelvic floor after a wide perineal resection
and how do I correct a perineal hernia?
8. How do I estimate the need of a defunctioning colostomy and how do I
treat leakage of the anastomosis?
9. How do I treat a patient with colorectal cancer and synchronous liver
metastases?
10. How do I balance the advantages and disadvantages of adjuvant
treatment (numbers needed to treat)?
TEACHING FORMAT
The Masterclass offers plenary lectures regarding state-of-the-art clinical evaluation and treatments with reference to clinical guidelines and which will conclude in take-home messages.
Workshop sessions in small groups will be organised in areas of decision making in complex cases.
Furthermore, participants will deliver case presentations within small groups and discuss these with the chairmen and the faculty.
