Resident & Fellows Hernia Case Competition
The Canadian Hernia Society is proud to announce that we are accepting submissions for the 5th Annual Resident & Fellow Hernia Case Competition which will be presented at the 2025 Canadian Surgery Forum in Montreal.
We are specifically looking for any interesting or difficult hernia cases. We’re interested in hearing about:
- what made the case unique or challenging
- what were the options that were considered
- what challenges you encountered
- what you would have done differently
Residents, fellows, and staff are encouraged to partner up for submission, with residents or fellows delivering the presentation.
Four cases will be selected for presentation at this year’s Canadian Surgery forum in Montreal, Quebec from September 17-20, 2025.
For more details including submission requirements, please click HERE.
The deadline for all case submissions is June 1, 2025. Please submit your cases to csf@cags-accg.ca. All submissions will be blinded before judging by the selection committee.
