| Aims |
The aim of this optional course is to propose a deeper approach of pediatric surgical digestive pathology than the overall view given in the mandatory teaching of the general curriculum. Several topics will be much more detailed, including pediatric liver transplantation as well as the multidisciplinary approach of anorectal pathologies. The diagnostic approach will be integrated to other clinical aspects, including the categorization of clinical hypotheses, the planning of paraclinical investigations and the decisional algorithm leading to a surgical indication.
|
| Content |
These optional lectures in pediatric digestive surgical pathology provide an overview on several specialized topics to be discussed in a small group seminar, with an evaluation mode allowing testing of the capacity of the student to mobilize his/her theoretical knowledge when confronted to clinical cases
|
| Other information |
The courses will be given within a small group of 15-25 students; the evaluation will be organized around the discussion of a clinical case, to be prepared with the student's notes available and discussed within a short interview with the interrogator
