Objectives
To improve the standard of surgical care of children in China through the introduction of new laparoscopic techniques in the treatment of paediatric surgical diseases through a series of Iaparoscopic workshops in participating centres; to improve our understanding of special paediatric surgical issues relevant to the Chinese population (e.g. disease patterns, transferability of western 'advances' to China etc) through systematic exchanges with major centres in China and hence enhance our ability to deliver better surgical care to children in Hong Kong; to promote modern concepts of Iaparoscopic surgery among leaders of the new generation of doctors, so that they in turn can teach others in respective centres (i.e.) Train the Trainer concept.
