Minimally invasive procedures are currently experiencing rapid growth.
Laparoscopic surgeries are considered the treatment of choice for most surgical procedures. Patients opt for this type of procedure because it is less invasive, safer, and results in a faster postoperative recovery.
This course follows a model similar to Scolla’s postgraduate courses in Minimally Invasive Surgery, which prioritize excellence in education, the refinement of surgical technique, and provide students with all the latest innovations in the field.
It is exclusively for surgeons from countries neighboring Brazil, featuring a personalized approach, taught in Spanish, and led by the leading experts in the specialty in Latin America.
