| Educational Content | Dr. Kang Kyung Ho is an endocrine surgeon at Ewha Womans university Seoul Hospital. Patients who care neck scar could benefit from robot-assisted thyroid surgery which leaves almost no scar. He already experienced more than more than 1000 cases of robotic thyroid surgery with satisfactory results. Especially, he expanded the indications for robotic operation to thyroid carcinoma with lateral lymph nodes metastasis, in which modified radical neck dissection is needed. He has performed more than 100 cases of robotic modified radical neck dissection successfully with bilateral axillo-breast approach. 2024 Minimally Invasive Surgery Master Class Educational Plan Day 1 (Monday): Robotic Thyroid Surgery Morning (Theoretical Education): Acquire theoretical knowledge about robotic thyroid surgery. The topics will include: Overview and necessity of robotic thyroid surgery Advantages and limitations of robotic thyroid surgery Basic principles and techniques of robotic thyroid surgery Afternoon (Surgical Video Distribution): Through actual surgical videos of robotic thyroid surgery, understand the surgical procedure, and learn the characteristics and precautions of each stage. Evening (Discussion): Based on what has been learned today, pose questions and conduct discussions. This will explore ways to apply theoretical knowledge to actual situations and improve the ability to see issues from various perspectives. Day 2 (Tuesday): Surgical Observation Morning (Surgical Observation): Participants will have the opportunity to observe a live surgical procedure, providing an invaluable firsthand experience. Afternoon (Q&A during Surgery): Participants can ask questions during the surgery. This real-time interaction will provide a deeper understanding of the surgical process. Evening (Post-surgery Discussion): A discussion session will be held to reflect on the surgery observed during the day. This will reinforce the learning and allow for clarification of any uncertainties. |

| Educational Content | 1. Introduction Established in 1946, the Department of Surgery at Seoul National University College of Medicine is the one of the oldest surgical departments in Korea. The current hepatobiliary and pancreas division comprises several specialized centers; Liver Cancer Center, Pancreatic and Biliary Cancer Center, and Transplantation Center. There are 10 faculty members with 8 clinical fellows in the Division of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery. In this visiting program supported by KSERS 2024, the visitors can experience and participate in the minimally-invasive surgery (MIS) particularly for pancreato-biliary disease. With the remarkable investigations for MIS of our department, we have performed more than 700 of robotic pancreaticoduodenectomy in the last decade. The visitors will obtain structured concept of surgical indication for MIS and experience fundamental and advanced techniques used in MIS. 2. Educational contents April 8th 2024: The Monday schedule starts from the morning conference at 7:00 AM. The residents report on the patients who will undergo surgery in the week with their imaging findings. The surgical planning for each patient is conducted. The operation starts around 8:00AM and the visitors can participate in the whole procedure of the operation. April 9th 2024: Two operative rooms are available. Various types of surgery will be performed including open, laparoscopic and robotic procedures. Visitors can observe or participate as an assistant in the most interesting case. |

1. Introduction The SNUH Gastric Cancer Center is one of the world-class centers at Seoul National University Cancer Hospital (SNUCH). Each year, about 1,000 gastric cancer surgeries are performed with about 15% morbidity and 0.5% mortality. The cumulative number of gastric cancer surgeries performed at the center exceeded 20,000 in 2007, which is the highest number in any single institution in the world. We have provided an enriching educational experience to over 100 international clinicians (mostly faculty of major international institutions) at our center and developed an education program fit for academic physicians from all over the world, including China and even Japan. We have been running a fellowship exchange program with Roswell Park Cancer Institute since 2009, and one or two surgical oncology fellows visit our center yearly (7 fellows have visited our center for 1 month as part of their elective training course). We have also had many short-term visitors from all over the world through various routes. SNUCH Gastric Cancer Center can be the best option for global visitors for education on gastric cancer because it has a high number cases per week as well as structured and active research activities, even for a short duration of a few weeks. 2. Short-Term Visiting Fellowship Program This is an integrated practical education course that provides experience with many diverse gastric cancer patients within a few weeks and is intended to offer a structured concept and knowledge of gastric cancer treatment. The visitors are expected to learn the basic principles of gastric cancer treatment, focused on gastric cancer surgery including lymph node dissection, post-operative management and chemotherapy. We hope they would be able to effectively apply their experience with a relatively large number of gastric cancer patients in their own practice in their home institutions. We also look forward to introducing and discussion research projects at SNUH to develop a new international collaboration among gastric cancer researchers. 1) Duration: 1-week program course 2) Accommodations: Accommodations can be arranged in advance 3) Educational contents A. Gastric cancer operation: indications and technical principles of each operation technique
(Thursday 07:00)
G. Opportunities to attend domestic scientific meetings or workshops on gastric cancer 4) Curriculum A. Operation
5) Routine Time Table

| Educational Content | The Department of Colorectal Surgery at Seoul St. Mary's Hospital performs more than 500 colorectal cancer surgeries annually, and performs those using minimally invasive techniques in most colorectal cancer patients. Professor Yoon Suk Lee, who is in charge of education, is an authority in this field and has performed thousands of laparoscopic colorectal cancer surgeries for about 20 years. In addition, rectal cancer surgery including ISR has been performed using the da Vinci robot as well as the conventional laparoscopic surgery since several years ago, and recently, LAR and ISR using the SP robot is being actively performed. We are very excited about the expectation that we will help many surgeons who are interested in this. As a pre-congress of KSERS 2024, we would like to provide an opportunity to experience high-quality colorectal cancer surgery using minimally invasive techniques (laparoscopy, multiport davinci robot, and SP robot). |
