The International College of Surgeons (ICS)
Pacific Federation Congress 2026 and the 25^th National Surgical Week

Dear Members of World ICS,

The International College of Surgeons (Thailand Section) is honored to host the Asia Pacific Federation Congress 2026. This congress aims to promote advances in various surgical disciplines across the region, while providing a platform for surgeons to exchange knowledge, share experiences, and further their learning. Through these collaborative efforts, we hope to enhance surgical science, refine clinical skills, and strengthen decision-making, ultimately for the greatest benefit of our patients.

In addition, a pre-congress workshop will be organized to provide hands-on training in oncoplastic breast surgery, utilizing fresh cadaver specimens. This workshop is designed to build essential foundational skills in the surgical management of breast cancer.

Bangkok, a city rich in culture and beauty, warmly welcomes visitors from around the world. Beyond the academic program, we believe that the spirit of friendship and international collaboration fostered during this congress will grow even stronger.

Thank you for your interest and support.
We look forward to welcoming you in Bangkok.
