3rd International Symposium - Bariatric Surgery in Daily Practice

Learning and Experience in Real Cases

Hands-on practice with cadaver lab demonstrations

July 25-27, 2025

Curitiba, Paraná

Bariatric surgery is an exciting specialty that is in a full stage of development. Due to the great appeal and interest of society, governments and, therefore, companies and medical research centers, new ideas, techniques and technologies emerge every year. Keeping up to date is a necessity and keeping a close eye on new ideas and new products can make all the difference for bariatric surgeons in this very competitive market.

Due to the great success of the previous editions, we will once again be holding cadaver-lab training during this event, focusing on the challenges and day-to-day practices of bariatric surgeons.

A dynamic, interactive event full of debates, surgeries, technical demonstrations and discussions of clinical cases. In addition, realistic simulation is a possibility through hands-on practical training on simulators and live models.

It will be an honor to welcome you to this event, which promises to be a great success.

We're waiting for you!

Theoretical and practical hands-on courses will be offered in which students will take part in demonstrations of classic and innovative surgical techniques, carried out by experienced surgeons and with all the technical detail necessary for optimal learning of each procedure. Training will be carried out on live models and simulators of the techniques previously presented by the preceptors on cadaveric models. Training workshops will also be held on innovative bariatric devices.
