The success of our inaugural meeting has set a high standard for this prestigious event. Last conference held in Jeddah in 2022 was a landmark for great collaboration, knowledge exchange, and innovation in the treatment of peritoneal surface malignancies. We were honored by the participation of leading experts from around the globe, and their contributions significantly advanced our collective understanding and approach to these complex conditions.

This year, we are excited to build on that foundation with an even more robust program. The 2nd Middle East PSOGI Conference aims to:

Our sessions will cover a wide array of topics from cytoreductive surgery to the latest in HIPEC (Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy), PIPAC, and beyond.

• Feature World Leaders: Attendees will have the unique opportunity to learn directly from some of the most influential figures in the field of peritoneal oncology. Their insights and expertise will undoubtedly inspire and challenge us to push the boundaries of what is possible in patient care.

• Promote Collaboration: This conference is not just about learning; it's about creating connections. We encourage networking, collaborative discussions, and the sharing of experiences to foster new partnerships and initiatives.

• Enhance Educational Opportunities: Through workshops, symposia, and interactive sessions, we aim to provide comprehensive educational experiences that will directly impact the quality of care provided to patients suffering from these challenging malignancies.
