#PCSA2020 @PCSAsurg Dr. Yu-Hsien Chen from #Taiwan showed similar low complication rates of transoral endoscopic #TOETVA and robotic #TORT in propensity matched groups. TORT took longer but made central node dissection easier. Axilla useful for removing large tumors @TheAAES

Favorite moment of the weekend: @PCSAsurg VP @BurchGISurg introducing President Dr. #EdPhillips. A moving speech chronicling his extraordinary life—a #pioneer in laparoscopic surgery and the support system that kept him going: his wife & family. #PCSA2020 #ThankYouDrPhillips

Interesting work from the exceptional @ATitanMD and the legendary Dr. Norton on outcomes after resection of locally advanced pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors. Vascular resection was not associated with long term survival and OS was 90% @StanfordSurgery @PCSAsurg – at Carlsbad, CA
