The 17th IHPBA World Congress is the flagship international meeting of the International Hepato-Pancreato-Biliary Association (IHPBA), bringing together leading surgeons, physicians, researchers, trainees, and industry partners from around the world who are dedicated to the treatment and study of liver, pancreas, and biliary diseases.
Held every two years, the congress serves as a global platform for the exchange of the latest scientific discoveries, surgical innovations, clinical practices, and emerging technologies in hepatopancreatobiliary (HPB) care. The program includes keynote lectures, panel discussions, multidisciplinary sessions, abstract presentations, hands-on educational opportunities, and networking events designed to foster collaboration across specialties and regions.
The 2026 edition will take place in Singapore from October 28–31, welcoming an international audience to discuss advances in HPB surgery, oncology, transplantation, minimally invasive techniques, and patient-centered care while promoting education, research, and professional development within the global HPB community.
GEM TECHNOSURG 2026, an international conference and surgical workshop focused on AI, robotics, fluorescence, and advanced surgical technologies, will take place on June 19–20, 2026, at the ITC Grand Chola in Chennai, India. The event will bring together renowned national and international faculty to explore the evolving future of surgery through innovation, technology, and hands-on learning.
The scientific program will feature live 4K surgeries, robotic surgery masterclasses, robotic simulation and skill labs, AI in surgery sessions, and multidisciplinary discussions across HPB, colorectal, upper GI, bariatric, gynecology, and abdominal wall surgery. Attendees will also have the opportunity to engage in expert debate forums exploring the impact of technology, autonomous surgery, and the future role of surgeons in modern healthcare.
TECHNOSURG 2026 will also showcase cutting-edge surgical technologies, imaging systems, robotics, and digital health innovations from leading global manufacturers, creating a unique platform for education, collaboration, and surgical advancement.
Title: ESSO-ISFGS Course on Fluorescence-Guided Surgery
Location: 52.15251821737685,4.490714953865414
Descripción del evento:
During this course participants will obtain a thorough knowledge of the fundamentals and state-of-the-art applications of fluorescence imaging of tumours (primary, metastases, lymph nodes), sentinel lymph nodes and lymphatics, vital structures (bile ducts, ureters, nerves) and perfusion assessment of organs and tissues. Besides traditional fluorescent, fluorescent dyes, participants will discover and work with novel antibody-/peptide-/nanobody-based targeted fluorescence-guided surgical navigation. They will experience the possibilities and limitations of this intra-operative technique also in relation to open, laparoscopic and robotic approaches.
Participants will also have the optional opportunity to attend the symposium “Go Green: Fluorescence-Guided Surgery Is Teamwork” on Friday, June 12, which will include the inaugural lecture by Professor Vahrmeijer.

Applications of Fluorescence in Surgery and Diagnostics Volume II: Evolution and Breakthroughs
INVITATION TO SUBMIT AN ARTICLE
Second special issue on Fluorescence Surgery and Diagnostics In: Frontiers in Surgery (crossed with Frontiers in Oncology).
Five years after the very successful and pioneering first volume "Applications of Fluorescence in Surgery and Interventional Diagnostic, a group of editors and expert reviewers invite authors to share and discuss the evolution and breakthroughs in applications of fluorescence in surgery and medical diagnostics.
Fluorescence is capable of interrogating tissue, augmenting gross surgical and intraoperative pathological diagnostics by highlighting specific molecular signals, guiding surgery and medical diagnosis in real-time, identifying hidden lesions, revealing blood flow through the vessels, and much more. Frontiers serves as the platform for a collection of articles to provide a comprehensive state-of-the-art update and systematization of cutting-edge technologies, accumulate evidence for their utility, and to present original recent advancements in field fluorescence and related technologies. We hope that by learning from various medical and surgical specialties, as well as from basic translational research techniques and technologies that authors and readers will share and report innovative solutions in fluorescence techniques to advance scientific frontiers toward improving patient care. Cross-fertilization and communication of ideas from a wide base has the potential for significant advancement on various medical, surgical, and research specialties.
This Research Topic welcomes surgeons, medical interventionists and diagnosticians, pathologists, and researchers to publish their experience and research towards improving intraoperative diagnosis and monitoring, surgical guidance, workflow and outcomes, and other medical diagnostic or treatment interventions by using advanced fluorescence imaging techniques for in vivo or ex vivo disease detection and surgical or interventional guidance.
