ISUCRS 2022 31st Biennial Congress of ISUCRS

Dear Friends and Colleagues, On behalf of the International Society of University Colon and Rectal Surgeons (ISUCRS) organizing committee, I am delighted to welcome all the experts and academics from around the world to Istanbul, Türkiye for the 31st Biennial Congress that will take place from October 27-29, 2022, at Wyndham Grand Hotel Levent Convention Center. After the success of ISUCRS 2006 meeting which was held also in Istanbul, I would like to express my sincere thanks to the Board Members for selecting once more my town to host this landmark event. Encouraging progress is going in the field of colorectal diseases, both with diagnosis as well as cure. It will be a great pleasure to join with the doctors, nurses, allied health practitioners, scientists, and scholars from around the globe. The first time in the history of ISUCRS meetings, international (WCET, ECET) and local nursing societies will join us with their own schedule. We prepared an attractive scientific program to promote relevant discussions on innovative treatment, the limits of standard therapies and the impact of new research outcomes. We organized educational pre-congress courses with live surgeries, meet the professor breakfasts for young surgeons. You are invited to be stimulated and enriched by the latest researches and clinical practices, with the presentations of experts by a variety of disciplines. As the convenor of the congress, I want to welcome you to the wonderful, dynamic and international city of Istanbul where two continents meet. I hope that you will find the congress and your stay in Istanbul both valuable and enjoyable. Yours sincerely, Dursun Buğra Convenor of the 31st Biennial Congress of ISUCRS
