    Abstract The Association of Surgeons in Training (ASiT)'s motto is the pursuit of excellence in surgical training. The Association provides support to surgical trainees throughout the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland. Originally founded in 1976, ASiT is independent of the National Health Service (NHS), Surgical Royal Colleges, and specialty associations. The 2018 Annual Conference in Edinburgh hosted over 800 delegates for a packed educational weekend. The conference theme was #nurturingexcellence and focused on helping trainees achieve their potential and improve surgical care. The importance of support for diversity in surgery was emphasised. An inclusive approach was fostered with a baby feeding room and a clear message that babies were welcome at the conference. Debates on the role of simulation in surgical training, sessions on reflective practice and the improving surgical training programme and a question and answer session with the presidents of the Royal colleges of surgeons made for lively and at times heated discussions. The weekend started with pre-conference courses covering a diverse range of topics including core laparoscopic, vascular, orthopaedics, neurosurgical skills, leadership, NOTSS and global surgery. Over 1000 abstract submissions were received and there were over 30 prize winning submissions. ASiT continues to grow and we look forward to an even larger and more successful international conference next year in Belfast 22nd-24th March, with an exciting parallel Hackathon to foster cross specialty cooperation to solve surgical problems.

    Abstract Introduction: Precise geographical localisation of colonic neoplasia is a prerequisite for proper laparoscopic oncological resection. Preoperative endoscopic peri-tumoural tattoo practice is routinely recommended but seldom scrutinised.
    Methods: A retrospective review of recent consecutive patients with preoperative endoscopic lesional tattoo who underwent laparoscopic colonic resection as identified from our prospectively maintained cancer database with supplementary clinical chart and radiological, histological, endoscopic and theatre database/logbook interrogation.
    Results: Some 210 patients with 'tattooed' colonic neoplasia were identified, of whom 169 underwent laparoscopic surgery (mean age 68 years, median BMI 27.8kg/m
    Conclusions: Tattoo in advance of attempting laparoscopic resection is vital for precision cancer surgery especially for radiologically unseen tumours to avoid adverse clinical consequence.

    Abstract The Association of Surgeons in Training (ASiT) is a professional body and registered charity working to promote excellence in surgical training for the benefit of junior doctors and patients alike. The Association provides support at both regional and national levels throughout the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland. Originally founded in 1976, ASiT is independent of the National Health Service (NHS), Surgical Royal Colleges, and specialty associations. The 2017 Annual Conference in Bournemouth brought together over 700 delegates for a diverse educational weekend with numerous expert guest speakers. With a theme of '#AdvancesIn,' we looked to celebrate cutting edge progress in training, clinical management, medical technology, leadership and entrepreneurialism. These updates were complimented by debates on current training in surgery and an array of focussed parallel sessions. For the first time, delegates were also able to interact with the conference digitally, with the debut of our conference smartphone App. The weekend started with 9 pre-conference courses covering a diverse range of topics including core laparoscopic, vascular, orthopaedics, neurosurgical skills, leadership and global surgery. Over 1000 abstract submissions were received and those successful competed for over 30 awards, representing nearly £4000 in trainee prizes and bursaries. As the only national surgical trainee meeting for all specialties, ASiT continues to grow and we look forward to an even larger and more successful international conference next year in Edinburgh 6-8th April 2018 with the theme of #nurturingexcellence.

    Abstract Purpose: Complete mesocolic excision (CME) has been associated with improved oncological outcomes in treatment of colon cancer. However, widespread adoption is limited partly because of the technical complexity and perceived risks of the approach. The aim of out study was to evaluate the safety of CME compared to standard resection and to compare robotic versus laparoscopic approaches.
    Methods: Two parallel searches were undertaken in MEDLINE, Embase and Web of Science databases 12 December 2021. The first was to evaluate IDEAL stage 3 evidence to compare complication rates as a surrogate marker of perioperative safety between CME and standard resection. The second independent search compared lymph node yield and survival outcomes between minimally invasive approaches.
    Results: There were four randomized control trials (n = 1422) comparing CME to standard resection, and three studies comparing laparoscopic (n = 164) to robotic (n = 161) approaches. Compared to standard resection, CME was associated with a reduction in Clavien-Dindo grade 3 or higher complication rates (3.56% vs. 7.24%, p = 0.002), reduced blood loss (113.1 ml vs. 137.6 ml, p < 0.0001) and greater mean lymph node harvest (25.6 vs. 20.9 nodes, p = 0.001). Between the robotic and laparoscopic groups, there were no significant differences in complication rates, blood loss, lymph node yield, 5-year disease-free survival (OR 1.05, p = 0.87) and overall survival (OR 0.83, p = 0.54).
    Conclusions: Our study demonstrated improved safety with CME. There was no difference in safety or survival outcomes between robotic and laparoscopic CME. The advantage of a robotic approach may lie in the reduced learning curve and an increased penetration of minimally invasive approach to CME. Further studies are required to explore this.

    Abstract Background: Surgical trainees in the UK and Ireland undergo rigorous formative and summative assessments throughout each placement, and appraisal at an Annual Review of Competence Progression (ARCP). The ARCP evaluates performance during each training year and determines progression to the next year of training. It is critical that the ARCP is a robust and fair process. The Association of Surgeons in Training (ASiT) sought to evaluate surgical trainees' experiences of the ARCP process in order to identify areas for improvement.
    Methods: An electronic survey was developed and distributed electronically to the trainee membership of ASiT in the UK and Republic of Ireland. A 57 point survey examined the specifics of one ARCP cycle as well as attitudes to the process in general. Quantitative analysis was performed, along with thematic analysis on the free-text comments.
    Results: 600 trainees from all deaneries, grades and specialities participated. The survey demonstrated difficulties in preparing for ARCP: insufficient notice (24%), inadequate communication (22%) and lack of engagement of seniors (30-39%). 47% considered the process and standards inconsistent. 82% of trainees considered a face-to-face ARCP advantageous. Such a meeting provided a means of raising concerns regarding training posts (29%), bullying (18%) and patient safety (17%) that would not otherwise have been reported in writing. During qualitative analysis, the following themes emerged: The conflict between potential value and real experience; concerns regarding the quality of assessment and the need for improvement (in process, individual performance and surgical training.) CONCLUSION: This survey demonstrates that trainees appreciate the potential educational value of the ARCP process. However, there is a gap between this potential and trainees experience. Particular concerns include inconsistency, the timing of decision-making and the need to retain a face-to-face meeting. This feedback from trainees can be used to improve the assessment process in relation to procedural developments at the national level and engagement of supervisors and trainers locally. These changes will ensure that the ARCP becomes a higher quality assessment and more constructive for training in future.
