(MTCC). This session was started
with a tribute to the late Professor
Massimo Crespi, the former head of
MTCC who was scheduled to give a
lecture in this session, but unfortu-nately
passed away six weeks before
the meeting. New epidemiologic data
from the country and implications
for changes in screening policy, as
well as molecular pathology and new
treatment methods (EMR, ESD) were
discussed by experts in the field. An
open case discussion session about
the feasibility/ necessity of colorectal
cancer screening in Iran and genetic
testing for hereditary colorectal cancer
concluded the session.
Submucosal/non-epithelial lesions
of the GI tract and the evolving role
of gut microbiota in health and dis-ease
were discussed by distinguished
speakers on the same day.
On the third day of the conference,
inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)
and obesity had the center role. Data
from the Iranian registry of IBD, as
well the ongoing controversies like
biologic therapy versus surgery for
treatment of ulcerative colitis, were
discussed in both lecture and open
case-discussion formats. In the session
on obesity, both medical and surgi-cal
treatments for obesity, as well as
endoscopic management of bariatric
surgery complications, were discussed.
