COLORECTAL GOES VIRAL
‘When the drugs don’t work’
16 September at 1 pm
Colorectal Goes Viral finishes with the focus on surgery for IBD.
Our distinguished international faculty of Christianne Buskens (Holland), Amy Lightner (USA) and Par Myrelid (Sweden) will be highlighting the importance of surgery in the management of perianal and small bowel Crohn’s disease, as well as the reconstructive options available to patients with ulcerative colitis.
The discussion will be led by our UK panel of experts, including Laura Hancock, Tom Pinkney and Janindra Warasuvitarne, chaired by Justin Davies.
We look forward to you joining us for the last webinar in the Colorectal Goes Viral series, for what will certainly be unmissable for those with an interest in IBD surgery.
