Course Objective

Developments in basic science "results-oriented" as pharmaceuticals and medical devices that help the patient to describe the process of transformation of translational medicine approach in the importance of onco-surgery practice will be discuss.
In this context, organospecific translational onco-surgical approach, loco regional approach in cancer, invasive cancer treatments, molecular diagnostics in surgery, minimally invasive concept of onco-surgery, endoscopic treatments, and changing concepts of translational surgery, will be discussed.
