Dear colleagues,

after almost a year of preparation, we are now opening the registration for our congress entitled Videoonkochiruirgia2023. The slight fatigue we felt immediately after the previous congress quickly passed and your positive feedback motivated us to continue this year as well.

Together with Professor Zdeněk Kala, Professor Bjorn Edwin and Associate Professor Juraj Váňa, we have formed a “presidential quartet”.

The first day will be conducted in English, mainly by lecturers from abroad, but also from Slovakia and the Czech Republic. It is a day of Europe-integrative significance for us and our young colleagues. The scientific programme will focus on hepato-pancreatico-biliary surgery and colorectal surgery. Oncological surgery will be the dominant highlight of the entire day. We will also keep in mind the educational part of the programme.

The second day will also be dedicated to general surgery and can indeed be referred to as video surgery day – Videochirurgia2023. The individual blocks of the programme will be dedicated to gastroenterology and pelvic floor rehabilitation. We plan to open a block dedicated to the centralization of surgical care in the Czech Republic and Slovakia.

Workshops will be a novelty during the congress. One will be dedicated to minimally invasive surgery of the liver, pancreas and colon. On 9.10.2023 a live broadcast from Bory Hospital will be organized.

We look forward to meeting you and having a professional discussion.
