We had the delight to help run the first workshop using Eco’s Microwave ablation catheter for 静脉曲张治疗. This was convened at Khoo Teck Puat Hospital in Singapore by our friend Chuo Ren Leong, MD senior consultant and deputy HOD for general surgery at KTPH.
We managed to demonstrate the microwave ablation technique to a bunch of enthusiastic vascular surgeons from Indonesia by performing three cases of varicose veins during Wednesday morning. Case demonstration was interspersed with helpful lectures with tips and tricks using the device by Dr Wong and Dr Dexter Chan, Consultant Vascular Surgery from KTPH. Had a fruitful morning exchanging ideas with our delightful Indonesian colleagues.
Looking forward to the next workshop! Many thanks to all for their hard work including Daisy and Ade from the Indonesia side who supported the running of the workshop. Also, we would like to thank the nursing staff from day surgery at KTPH for their help and time.
