The CSSP will host an educational webinar for surgeons on the technical standards for pancreatic surgery. This webinar will discuss evidence-based operative standards for the performance of pancreatoduodenectomy as outlined in the Operative Standards for Cancer Surgery (OSCS) Volume 1. Speakers will also review the rationale supporting the OSCS recommendations.
All surgeons who view the webinar via the ACS Learning Management System are eligible to receive Continuing Medical Education (CME) credits. We encourage staff at CoC-accredited cancer programs to share this information with surgeons, trainees, and fellows with an interest in pancreatic cancer surgery.
