Mr Ian Jenkins will host the RSM President’s Day for St Mark’s.

Join us for an educational day at St Mark’s The National Bowel Hospital, exploring the advances and controversies in the management of benign and malignant bowel conditions in a programme shaped and delivered by a national and international faculty of former fellows and alumni of St Mark’s: “Auld acquaintances, ne’er forgotten”. Learn about cutting edge research, minimally and maximally invasive surgical techniques, imaging, multidisciplinary working and training to optimise patient care, now and for the future. This meeting aims to explore recent clinical advances in coloproctology and their related controversies driven by the interests, experiences and enthusiasms of our St Mark’s alumni.

By attending this meeting, you will:

  • Gain increased knowledge of current cancer and IBD management
  • Better understand the areas of controversy in malignant and benign coloproctology e.g. immunotherapy in colorectal cancer management, CME, and more
  • Impact of robotics in colorectal cancer management
  • Better understand training issues for current Coloproctology trainees e.g. letting surgeons flourish
  • Exposure to pelvic rarities and their radiology
  • And many, many more

Topics include:

  • The CME Trials: how should we interpret them?
  • The impact of fellowship training on rectal cancer outcomes
  • Let surgeons flourish – what can mentoring offer
  • Immunotherapy for colorectal cancer: the surgeon’s dilemma
  • The impact of robotics on surgical trainees
