The 6th IBD Working Days Hořovice 2022 conference was attended by 150 surgeons and gastroenterologists

The first day of the conference was devoted to two workshops on modern approaches to the treatment of patients with IBD: Perianal Crohn's disease, including cell therapy and Intestinal and perianal ultrasound in IBD.

The expert programme on the following two days covered common topics in surgery and gastroenterology, as well as new developments in conservative and surgical treatment.

"This year's event was attended by 150 surgeons and gastroenterologists. In view of covid-19, we could not hold the conference in recent years. I am all the more pleased that even after two years, when we are organizing the conference again, there is such interest in participation from our colleagues. I believe that we will all take away new knowledge, experience and contacts that will help us in the treatment of patients with IBD," said Zuzana Šerclová, MD, Chief of Surgery at Hořovice Hospital and the main organizer of the conference. "I would also like to thank the Hořovice Hospital and the companies that, thanks to their sponsorship positions, helped us to realize the event."

The event was expertly sponsored by the IBD Working Group, CSG CSL JEP, IBD Surgery Section, CCHS CSL JEP and the IBD Working Group, SGS SLS. The professional programme at the conference venue included an accompanying exhibition of pharmacological companies, medical equipment, nutrition products and others.
