COURSE OVERVIEW

Advanced multidisciplinary Abdominal, Pelvic and Pelvic floor surgery Cadaveric course.

This is a unique opportunity for pelvic surgeons wishing to understand the anatomy of the deep pelvis. You will learn from experienced surgeons and anatomists the anatomy of deep pelvis which is poorly understood due to complexity of structures. The objective will be learning principles of surgical steps in complex gynaecological procedures with aim to reduced complication rates.

Simulating the operating theatre environment with the use of fresh frozen cadavers and advanced laparoscopic equipment including 3D technology delegates will obtain invaluable hands on experience.

During the course you will have the opportunity to see clinical cases and interact with the next generation minimal access surgery device (Robotic Assisted Surgery) – a portable system, providing freedom of port placement, the benefits of fully wristed instruments, 3D HD vision, natural instrument control and a choice of ergonomics working positions that has the potential to reduce stress and fatigue.

Places are limited, early enquiry and reservation of your place is highly recommended.

• Course is aimed for: Gynaecologist consultant and trainees Gynaeoncologist , Endometriosis surgeons , pelvic surgeons , Urogynaecologist.

GYNAEONCOLOGY : Compartmental based pelvic surgery, PMMR (Peritoneal mesometrial resection) in modified radical hysterectomy, Para-aortic & pelvic nodal dissection , Nerve sparing surgery, Peritoneal and diaphragmatic resection of disease

COURSE OBJECTIVES

Understanding of female pelvic anatomy with an emphasis on pelvic nerve identification and sparing

Aim: To understand, demonstrate and perform dissection of the female pelvis in relation to

1. Pelvic floor , side wall, avascular spaces

2. Anatomical distribution of pelvic nerves including somatic and autonomic system to understand nerve sparing procedures in endometriosis and other gynaecological anatomical procedures , retro peritoneal approach for dissection

3. Pelvic anatomy, neurovascular relations, muscles, ligaments, lymphatic drainage

4. Performance of total laparoscopic hysterectomy including suturing

5. Anatomy of pelvic floor (muscle, nerves, vessels, relation for prolapse surgery)

6. Upper abdomen (diaphragm, para-aortic lymph nodes, mesentery, omentum, ureteric relations)

Learning outcomes:

Understanding of the anatomy of the female pelvis in relation to advanced laparoscopic surgery with particular emphasis on retro peritoneal spaces, pelvic nerve identification and sparing in advanced
