MDA, MD Anderson Robotic D2 Gastrectomy Course, 4/15/2024 7:00:00 AM – 4/15/2024 6:00:00 PM, Join us for a specialized course tailored to General Surgeons, Surgical Oncologists, and Surgical Trainees eager to expand their practice to include oncologic robotic gastrectomy, encompassing D2 lymph node dissection and reconstruction techniques. The day will commence with on-site case observation (broadcasted to the auditorium), followed by didactic lectures covering evidence-based D2 lymph node dissection and step-by-step robotic gastrectomy techniques, presented by esteemed international faculty members. Following the lectures, participants will engage in surgical cadaver labs utilizing the state-of-the-art Intuitive Surgical DaVinci Robotic Surgical Platform (Xi system). To ensure ample hands-on experience, we are limiting the number of participants to three per cadaver/robotic surgical system, guaranteeing significant console time for each surgeon. Notably, this program stands as the sol
