Courses & Events

An afternoon workshop to discuss how we might work together to improve surgical terminology.

Over the course of the two days key points will be covered for Hirschsprung Disease, Anorectal malformations and Cloaca. We hope practical aspects of care will be highlighted, future directions outlined and contentious areas debated.

This Workshop has been organised by Max Cervellione, Lead for the Bladder Exstrophy Service at Royal Manchester Children's Hospital, on behalf of The Manchester Bladder Exstrophy Team, The British Association of Paediatric Urologists and The European Society of Pediatric Urology.
