Fortis Hospital Mulund in association with The Indian Association of Gastrointestinal Endo Surgeons (IAGES),  successfully hosted the Fellowship of Advanced Laparoscopic Surgery (FALS) in Oncology from August 23 to 25, 2024.

This oncology training program covered a wide range of topics,  including oncology surgeries, laparoscopic surgeries to robotic surgeries. It also featured a live demonstration of cutting-edge and minimally invasive laparoscopic procedures for the participants. After the three-day intensive teaching program, a formal examination was conducted, and successful candidates received the ‘FALS in Oncology’ certificate during a formal convocation ceremony.

Dr Anil Heroor, HOD and Senior Consultant-Surgical Oncology, Fortis Hospital Mulund, who was the organising chairman, said, “The training comprised of 38 modules across various subspecialties of MAS oncology which was taught over two days. We have tried to get together the best faculty in the field to share their knowledge, experience and skills in this second physical offline course. Every year new technologies are introduced in Surgical Oncology, and it is very important for medical practitioners to keep themselves updated on the same.”
