The purpose of the Germany Society for General and Visceral Surgery is the promotion of the surgical focus on general and visceral surgery in both research and practice. It is furthermore, the responsibility of the society to represent the interests and concerns of general and visceral surgery towards medical organizations, municipal bodies, the State and its institutions as well as towards the public.
