IGCA News April 2013
Welcome Address
Dear Colleagues,
It is really a great pleasure for us to invite you to the 10th IGCC Congress which will be held in Verona in June 2013. It has been 15 years since IGCA was successfully established by the most outstanding GI surgeons of the nineties. The large participation to the meetings and the increasing importance of our Journal in the international literature witness the increasing weight of IGCA. We hope that Verona Congress could be a big occasion to open in Europe our society to other specialists such as oncologists, pathologists, gastroenterologists with the aim to reach the multidisciplinary approach to gastric cancer that is crucial in the third millennium.
The final programme of the congress is quite ready and will be published on the web site within the end of April. We received more than 1100 abstracts for Oral, Video and Poster presentation from all over the world. The scientific quality of the majority of the abstracts is very high and for this reason I am very positive about the scientific success of the 10th IGCC.
Verona, one of the most beautiful and romantic Italian cities, is waiting for you. In the same days of the congress it will start also the Centennial Edition of the Opera Festival in the Arena: do not miss this unique opportunity.
