Join the Pelvic Exenteration Surgery
“Observership Project” in Shanghai!

To further enhance the professional skills and innovation capabilities of surgeons nationwide in the field of PE surgery, this project combines systematic theoretical knowledge with anatomical hands-on training and practical exercises. 

It aims to help participants fully master the techniques and related knowledge of PE surgery, thereby improving the success rate of pelvic exenteration and patient outcomes. 

The “Observership Project” Advanced Training Course in PE Surgery is jointly organized by the PelvEx-China, Shanghai Changzheng Hospital, the People’s Liberation Army Navy 905 Hospital, and Jiangyin People’s Hospital.

 

Program Highlights

Guidance from Leading Experts

A top-tier teaching team composed of leading experts in the field of pelvic exenteration will provide one-on-one mentorship through anatomical demonstrations and live surgical guidance, imparting core operational techniques with precision.

Comprehensive Curriculum

A holistic knowledge system covering pelvic anatomy, surgical techniques, and complication management is delivered through a diversified teaching approach in the clinical teams.

Intensive Full-Process Surgical Training

Based on a solid theoretical foundation, the project features a step-by-step practical module: observation in the operating room → simulated surgical exercises → hands-on training with real cases, forming a closed-loop reinforcement system of “observation-simulation-practice."

High-Intensity Surgical Immersion

Participants will engage in 2-6 pelvic exenteration (PE) procedures weekly, gaining comprehensive exposure to the full clinical continuum—from preoperative planning and intraoperative execution to postoperative care management.
