2026年9月4日至7日，2026年第26届亚太妇科内镜及微创治疗协会（APAGE）年会与第13届印度尼西亚妇科内镜学会（IGES）年会在巴厘岛举办。本届大会以"创新驱动·微创未来"为核心理念，致力于搭建一个兼具学术深度与前瞻视野的国际交流平台，推动亚太乃至全球妇科领域的科研突破与临床转化。大会议程涵盖专题研讨、主旨演讲及现场手术演示，全方位聚焦创新技术与临床实用性的深度融合。
妇产科网作为APAGE 2026 & 13th IGES特邀官方合作媒体，全程跟进会议热点，进行深度系列学术报道。巴厘岛大会现场，我们特邀妇产科领域权威专家，聚焦前沿热点议题展开深度对话。专家们将结合重磅研究进展进行专业解读，为广大同仁呈现一场权威、深度的线上学术盛宴。本期访谈，我们特邀新加坡竹脚妇幼医院Bernard Chern教授，围绕APAGE搭建的交流平台、新加坡系统化培训经验以及成长寄语等话题展开交流分享。
01妇产科网：作为APAGE前任主席及妇科微创领域专家，您如何看待APAGE在推动亚太地区妇科内镜及微创手术发展中的作用？过去这些年，APAGE对区域学科交流和发展带来了哪些重要影响？
Bernard Chern教授：
非常荣幸有机会在这里分享我个人的一些看法。
这二十年来，APAGE在亚太区的贡献，不仅仅在于推广微创手术——无论是腹腔镜还是宫腔镜手术的发展——更重要的是，APAGE为亚太各区域、各个国家的医师搭建了一个能够互相学习、互相交流的平台。
这背后的主要原因，是亚太各个区域不同国家和地区拥有各自不同的文化背景、医疗资源与培训制度。正因如此，APAGE在微创手术的医学学术领域发挥了重要的规划作用，让各个国家和地区在这一领域——无论是培训、手术操作，还是科研方面——都能逐步走向国际化的规范。
02 妇产科网：新加坡在妇科微创技术发展和规范化培训方面积累了丰富经验。结合您的实践与长期学术交流经历，您认为建立高质量妇科微创培训体系、培养年轻妇科医生，需要关注哪些关键因素？
Bernard Chern教授：
新加坡与其他先进的医疗体系一样，在年轻医学生和年轻妇产科医生的培训上，强调一个核心理念：年轻医生必须先掌握基础的理论解剖学与手术原则，在此基础上，再进一步学习微创手术的理念与知识。
高质量的微创手术培训必须是系统化、有顺序地推进的：年轻医生首先掌握基本理论、解剖和手术原则，再通过模拟训练建立基本技能，然后进入手术室，在有经验的导师带领下，从简单的手术起步，逐步过渡到更复杂的微创手术。
第二个非常重要的环节，是客观能力的评估。因为培训不只是一个过程，最终我们必须确认，接受培训的医生真正达到了独立操作手术的水准，这其中包括临床判断、患者选择，以及处理并发症的能力。
03 妇产科网：随着妇科微创技术不断发展，对于希望在这一领域持续提升的年轻妇科医生，您有哪些建议和寄语？
Bernard Chern教授：
我想对年轻医生说的是：不要盲目追逐新技术的发展，更重要的是掌握手术中最核心的基础。
正如大会上所展示的，有很多新器械、新技术被不断引入。但作为年轻医生，不应一看到新技术就急着跟进，而应对这些新技术和新器械有更深入的认识与理解，最终选择那些能给患者带来更好疗效的方案。因为一些新技术在起步阶段，可能还没有获得足够系统、完善的安全数据。这一点对我们而言至关重要——我们追求的不仅是医疗的效果，更是患者最终的康复与治疗成功率。
采访结语
二十年来，APAGE以交流为桥，以规范为尺，让亚太微创外科在同一标准下共同成长。而真正值得年轻医生铭记的，是不盲从技术潮流，先守住解剖与手术的根基，把患者的康复放在第一位。技术日新月异，唯"以患者为本"的初心，历久弥新。
