Mentoring played a crucial role in shaping trainees. Mentors not only passed on knowledge, wisdom and technical skills, they were role models of professional and personal integrity. Trainees derived tremendous benefit from their counseling, moral support and career guidance. The old ways were good; however the practice of surgery has changed in recent years. New technologies, changing demographics and disease patterns, increased consumerism, patient empowerment and autonomy have revolutionized health care. Surgical Education has changed; the modern surgeon is expected to acquire a broad range of technical, interpersonal, administrative, and research skills. There has been a dramatic shift in the approach to technical training and knowledge acquisition. The modern surgeon is different from his or her predecessor. There is evidence to suggest that mentoring is still hugely beneficial to the modern surgeon. This paper will reflect on the challenges and solutions in mentoring a modern Surgeon in Malaysia. 9 SYMPOSIUM 1 | Training In Minimally Invasive Surgery, Expectation Of A Modern Surgeon GASTROINTESTINAL SURGERY: FROM CONVENTIONAL LAPAROSCOPY TO SILS Michael Li Department of Surgery, Pamela Youde Nethersole Eastern Hospital, Chai Wan, Hong Kong Over the last two decades, conventional laparoscopic approach been applied in the treatment of almost all gastrointestinal conditions due to the associated definite short term benefits. However, these minimal access approaches still necessitate a number of ports and a mini-laparotomy wound for specimen retrieval. Despite the small skin and fascial incisions, patients still experience pain and wound related complications. In an attempt to pursuit excellence and reduce wound-related complications, investigators have recently introduced to use of single port access device such that the number of trocar sites can be minimized. The single port device is introduced via a natural ‘orifice’ the umbilicus, in an attempt to produce ‘scarless surgery’. The technique, known as single incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS), was first reported in simple procedures like laparoscopic cholecystectomy and laparoscopic appendectomy. More recently SILS was also reported for laparoscopic colectomy. Initial experience suggests while SILS colectomy is feasible. However, Single Incision Laparoscopic Surgery (SILS) still poses a major technical challenge even for the most experienced laparoscopic surgeons. The difficult maneuverability of instruments in the single port platform and the frequent clashing of working instruments would result in limited operating fields. On the other hand, robotic surgery is yet another surgical advance being launched at the turn of the millennium. Robotic arms movement is driven by surgeon’s digital movement, with the signal transmitted and digitalized after anti-tremor filtration from the console. Initial experiences shows that robotic surgery provides a better magnified view and better retraction as compared to conventional laparoscopy. More recently, robotic single port surgery has been reported with success. The dexterity and freedom of the robotic endowrist helps overcome the ergometry of single port surgery, making it technically simpler and easier to perform. Meanwhile, it is unclear whether single port colectomy confers any additional advantages compared to standard laparoscopic colectomy, apart from the unproven benefits of fewer scars and scar related complications. Since only the surgical access itself has been modified, it is even doubtful if the oncological or clinical outcomes will be better than those in standard laparoscopic colectomy. Nonetheless, with further advancement in technology lead by our industrial partners, single port colectomy may become technically less challenging and more acceptable to surgeons in future. 10 SYMPOSIUM 1 | Training In Minimally Invasive Surgery, Expectation Of A Modern Surgeon TRAINING IN UROLOGY: FROM OPEN TO ROBOTICS Rohan Malek Department of Urology, Hospital Selayang, Selangor, Malaysia Minimally Invasive surgery is firmly established in Urology and majority of Urological procedures are now performed via minimally invasive approaches through endoscopic (natural orifice), percutaneous, laparoscopic and robotic assisted laparoscopic surgery. However, there is still a need for some training in open surgical approaches especially with trauma and reconstructive and complex uro oncological procedures. There is variation in the expectations of training in each country depending upon the patient burden, number of Urologists and degree of subspecialisation. In the US and most Western European countries, Urologists are initially trained as generalists
