Recent advances in technology and techniques have significantly improved outcomes for patients with rectal cancer. This event will spotlight two of the most groundbreaking innovations in the field. Our expert panel will present data on lateral pelvic node dissection and the use of indocyanine green (ICG), along with the integration of these methods. The program will emphasize the cost-effective laparoscopic approach to lateral pelvic node dissection and demonstrate how ICG enhances the safety and precision of pelvic dissection. Internationally renowned faculty will share valuable insights, including data, surgical videos, and practical tips for adopting these laparoscopic techniques globally.
