This November, Qatar will welcome the global surgical community to the Collaborative Surgery Conference 2025, a landmark scientific gathering that will feature live surgical demonstrations and presentations by internationally acclaimed experts.

Organized by Hamad Medical Corporation (HMC), the conference will serve as a hub for innovation and collaboration in surgical care, with a strong focus on colorectal, breast, and acute care surgery. The event underscores Qatar’s commitment to advancing surgical oncology and reconstructive techniques through multidisciplinary engagement and knowledge exchange.

The conference will integrate three specialized events under one umbrella, each addressing key areas of surgical practice and research.

Spotlight on Breast Surgery Innovation

The 2nd Qatar Breast Oncoplastic and Reconstructive Surgery Conference will return as a leading platform for regional and international dialogue on the evolving field of oncoplastic breast surgery. Held in official partnership with the European Society of Surgical Oncology (ESSO), the event aims to bridge European expertise with regional perspectives, promoting the exchange of best practices in breast cancer treatment and reconstruction.

This conference will explore the integration of oncologic safety with aesthetic outcomes, featuring sessions on fat grafting, flap-based reconstruction, nipple-sparing mastectomy, and patient-centered care. Experts from surgery, oncology, radiology, and pathology will come together to share insights that enhance both survival and quality of life for patients.

Advancing Colorectal Surgery

The 8th Qatar Colorectal Surgery Conference will also be a key component of the event, offering a comprehensive look at the latest in colorectal disease management. Topics will include both benign and malignant conditions, with a focus on laparoscopic and robotic techniques, oncologic strategies, and enhanced recovery protocols. Live surgeries and case-based discussions will provide attendees with practical insights into complex case management and functional preservation.

Focus on Acute Care and Emergency Surgery

Rounding out the program is the 4th Acute Care Surgery Conference, which will bring together global and regional leaders in emergency surgical care. The agenda includes keynote lectures, interactive panels, and clinical sessions covering acute care, trauma surgery, and surgical critical care. The conference is designed to support continuing education for surgeons, residents, and multidisciplinary teams working in high-pressure environments.

Together, these three conferences form a dynamic platform for advancing surgical knowledge, fostering collaboration, and addressing national healthcare priorities through education and innovation.
