Medical conferences in Italy are addressing various aspects of liver and gastrointestinal health. In mid-September 2026, Ceglie Messapica hosted the “Steatotic Liver Disease 2.0” congress, which focused on Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease (MASLD). The event emphasized multidisciplinary approaches, including early diagnosis, metabolic therapies, and the use of digital technologies in studying liver lesions.

Following this, in early October 2026, Messina hosted the “Gut and Liver Future” conference. This event centered on pediatric gastroenterology and hepatology, specifically examining the gut-liver axis. Discussions included rare liver diseases, pediatric transplants, and precision medicine for chronic inflammatory bowel diseases.
