About
Hong Kong Surgical Forum
The Hong Kong Surgical Forum is a biannual Spring and Autumn meeting which has continued without a break since its inception in 1983. It is an international postgraduate meeting held over a weekend.
The year 2023 marks the 40th anniversary of this meeting, which is regarded as one of the most prestigious meetings in the surgical community in Hong Kong and Asia. To celebrate 40th anniversary, the meeting will be expanded into a 3-day conference that will cover various surgical specialties. Topics are of current interest to both general surgeons and surgeons in more specialized fields.
Innovation and technology have become an integral part of modern development across all specialties in surgery. With this in mind, our aim is to provide a platform to showcase state-of-the-art innovations as well as an emerging technology with implications for clinical applications in various disciplines of surgery. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Hong Kong Surgical Forum 2023 will be conducted on a Hybrid Version.
