The new scenarios in surgery push us to propose new training programs that meet the real needs of experienced professionals, so that they can incorporate advances in surgical practice in oesophagogastric pathology”

New oesophagogastric surgical techniques focus on the treatment of diaphragmatic and hiatal hernias, esophageal motor disorders such as achalasia, esophageal diverticula or the approach to benign and malignant esophagogastric tumors. 

The advances that are being made in each of them imply a constant need for retraining for the specialist, but the speed at which changes occur and the amount of scientific documentation that is published every week, make it almost impossible for the surgeon to reconcile their update with their daily clinical and surgical practice.

The postgraduate certificate in Oesophagogastric Surgery is designed to allow an update on the latest advances in a practical way and adapted to the needs of the specialist, so that they can perform the surgical practice with quality and safety, based on the latest scientific evidence.
