The specialization of oncology professionals achieves improvements in the treatment of patients, so it is essential that they continue their specialization throughout their working life" 

Rare digestive tumors include a heterogeneous variety of pathologies with very different diagnostic, therapeutic and prognostic approaches. According to the World Health Organization classification, the following tumors are included in this category: small bowel, Tumours appendicular, anal canal carcinoma, liver and intrahepatic bile duct tumors, gallbladder and extrahepatic bile duct neoplasms, and gastrointestinal stromal tumors.  

In many cases, in the absence of clinical trials due to the small number of patients, therapeutic management is usually based on the extrapolation of existing data for neoplasms of similar location and higher frequency, as is the case with small bowel and colon cancer. However, more and more frequently, the molecular approach allows for effective treatment with targeted therapies, such as in the case of GIST (gastrointestinal stromal tumors) or more recently bile duct carcinomas. In this Postgraduate certificate there is a deep and exhaustive review of these subgroups of neoplasms, which will allow the student to handle a deep knowledge about this pathology.  

On the other hand, this specialization also includes two other areas of knowledge: thyroid cancer and neuroendocrine tumors. Thyroid cancer is rare, accounting for less than 1% of all malignant tumors. Whereas neuroendocrine tumors constitute a heterogeneous group of tumors that are defined as epithelial neoplasms with predominantly neuroendocrine differentiation. Although the most frequent locations are the pancreas, digestive tract and lung, this type of neoplasm can arise in practically any organ of the body.  

In this program, the experts, all of them referents in each area of knowledge, will develop aspects related to the context of this spectrum of pathologies, will present the clinical and molecular vision of the same, will show their diagnostic and therapeutic approaches and will explain complementary aspects such as their research and institutional environment or the global reality of the patients who suffer from them. 

Students will be able to take the Postgraduate certificate at their own pace, without being subject to fixed schedules or the travel involved in classroom training, so they will be able to combine it with the rest of their daily obligations.
