Welcome to this site !

It was designed to facilitate bookings for the upcoming webinars organised by ESES.

This is an educational initiative from the European Society of Endocrine Surgeons aiming to support future candidates for the DES examination and all surgeons with an interest in this subspecialty.

We hope that the topics will be of interest to all surgeons involved in thyroid, parathyroid or adrenal surgery, to endocrinology trainees and generally to all those interested to remain up-to-date with topics that can impact on their clinical practice.

A group of enthusiastic and experienced endocrine surgeons, most of whom act as DES examiners, will share their knowledge and will answer your questions.

This project is supported by sponsorship from Medtronic

Aim

To increase your confidence before the examination

To address controversial issues likely to be discuss during the examination.

To familiarise you with the layout of the examination
