What the experts said
This is the 10th annual pediatric surgery update course.
The course brings together surgeons from all over the world once a year to present what is new and important in pediatric surgery from the last year.
Pediatric surgery is a rapidly changing field and it is very hard to stay current.
The event is financially supported by Cincinnati Children's, Akron Children's, O'Shea Children's Hospital, Mercy Children's Kansas City, and UCLA.
APSA and the Journal of Pediatric Surgery have supported the course.
Two device companies, Proximy and Carl Stuartz, sponsored the course this year.
The live event will be put out on video for the world, both as the full event and as chopped up sessions available in the Stay Current app and on YouTube.
