“This is quite honestly the most impressive information available for surgeons today.” --Richard Satava, MD

“The mission of the Society of Laparoendoscopic Surgeons (SLS) is to provide information and education to surgeons worldwide,” said Paul Wetter, MD, chairman of SLS, at the Eighteenth SLS Annual Meeting & Endo Expo 2009 in Boston, Massachusetts, USA, September 9-12.

In line with this mission, SLS has just launched SLS TV, said Wetter. Now, no matter where you are in the world, if you have Internet access or an iPhone, you can view educational videos of the latest minimally invasive surgical techniques. For example, one video shows a case of transvaginal extraction of donor nephrectomy.
