Invitation

Respected Guests,
Dear Colleagues,


On behalf of the Scientific and Organizing Committee of the 4th International Congress of Minimally Invasive Surgery we have the great honor and privilege to invite you to participate in this event in September 2024. The Congress is important for the community of Polish surgeons, constituting a forum for exchanging experiences and at the same time an opportunity to get acquainted with the current knowledge and problems related to the rapid technological progress in minimally invasive techniques that constitute the basis of modern surgery.

Taking into consideration the current geopolitical reasons and war in Ukraine and as well as the expectations of invited guests and medical companies supporting the organization, this year's edition of the Congress will be held in Warsaw on September 26-28th, 2024. Traditionally, lecturers from both Poland and abroad, outstanding experts and specialists of international renown, representing various branches of surgery, were invited to actively participate in the Congress.

The scientific program includes 10 sessions devoted to minimally invasive abdominal surgery taking into account the extensive clinical experience of lecturers as well as presentations of the latest treatment techniques, including artificial intelligence technologies. As in previous editions, the 4th International Congress of Minimally Invasive Surgery in Warsaw is an excellent place to exchange views, establish friendship, professional cooperation and personal contacts. In addition to substantive participation in the Congress, it is also a unique opportunity to learn about numerous tourist attractions in Warsaw and, more broadly, Polish tradition and culture.

Detailed information about the program and organizational matters can be found at www.kongreschmi.pl

Once again, we cordially invite you to participate in the 4th International Congress of Minimally Invasive Surgery in Warsaw.
