Within the framework of international cooperation of  Dagestan State Medical University with German medical institutions work is being carried out to attract leading specialists to the educational process.

The events are held in order to exchange experience, improve the quality of training of medical personnel and familiarize the teaching staff and students of  DSMU with current international achievements.

On December 25, DSMU hosted an open online lecture on the topic: «Herniology: Modern technologies and our experience.»  The lecture was given by Movsar Borschigov, Associate Professor of Surgery, Robotic Surgery and Bariatric Surgery at Immanuel klinik Rudersdorf, Deutschland (Berlin, Germany).

 Thanks to the widespread introduction of laparoscopic technologies into practice in Germany, bariatric surgery began to develop rapidly.  Without a doubt, the level of modern development of surgery in Germany allows performing any even the most complex operations with minimal risks for the patient and with maximum efficiency.

At the end of the event a wide range of topical problems of endoscopic surgery were discussed.
