This year’s 16th Asia - Pasific Congress of Endoscopic Laparoscopic Surgeons of Asia (ELSA) will take place between October 5-7, 2023, at Istanbul Lutfi Kirdar Convention & Exhibition Center. Over the years, Endoscopic Laparoscopic Surgery procedures have developed and expanded due to various technological advancements.

The scientific program of the congress will be very comprehensive and will be focusing on updating, investigating, and better understanding the topics in the field of endoscopic laparoscopic surgery including general, upper and lower gastrointestinal, hepatopancreatobiliary, endocrine, bariatric, and metabolic surgery and some other related specialties with the help of pre- and post-congress courses, hands-on and skill labs (endoscopic, laparoscopic and robotic), expert talks, discussion panels, live surgeries, video sessions, emerging new technology sessions and of course oral and poster presentations. Besides the regular congress sessions there will be specially prepared prized competition sessions for surgeons in training and an exciting social program is also planned for you by the local organizing committee.

As the President of the Congress, on behalf of the ELSA society, I look forward to welcoming you to Istanbul where two continents meet.

Yours sincerely,

It is not uncommon to have major discomfort over the first 2-3 days after your laparoscopic surgery for a hernia in Malaysia. You will be prescribed NARCOTIC pain medication to help control this pain (Vicodin, Norco, Hydrocodone, etc.). While this medication can be quite effective, it often causes unpleasant side effects including nausea, lightheadedness, constipation, etc. Therefore, it is best to limit these medications to the bare minimum. As an alternative, we help you to use an ANTI-INFLAMMATORY (Aleve, Naprosyn, Advil, Motrin, or Ibuprofen). These medications can be very effective for controlling your pain as long as you don’t have any sensitivities to these medications, or any interactions between this class of medication and any of your current medications. We suggest you use this medication “around the clock” for the first 4-5 days, following the dosing guidelines listed on the over-the-counter bottle. If necessary, you may take both the NARCOTIC and the ANTI-INFLAMMATORY together.

SELSMA (Society of Endoscopic Laparoscopic Surgery Malaysia) was formed to bring together surgeons from all over the world and Malaysia specifically. With a focus on Endoscopic-Laparoscopic techniques, SELSMA functions as a platform for surgeons with a special interest in this field to congregate their ideas, learn new techniques and educate others. SELSMA is also part of a bigger society, ELSA or also known as the Endoscopic and Laparoscopic Surgeons of Asia. SELSMA takes pride in its members who are the crème de la crème from various surgical subspecialties. Besides being a platform for surgeons to come together, SELSMA also welcomes Medical officers, Medical students, and Allied health to actively participate in their host of activities.
