The course is designed for robotic surgeons who would be interested in refining or expanding their surgical repertoire and offering minimally invasive surgery in the gynecological surgical practice. It will enhance your knowledge of difficult pelvic anatomy through the lens of a robot and navigate through difficult dissection such as large fibroids, cervical fibroids, broad ligaments fibroids, endometriomas, and difficult myomectomy. The course also will provide tips and tricks on how to avoid and manage complications. The attendees will become familiar with other technology associated with the robot to enhance and incorporate as part of their tools for successful robotic surgery. Lastly, the attendees will have acquired knowledge of other up-and-coming robotic platforms to potentially integrate the gynecological surgical practice.
Learning Objectives: At the end of this course, the participant will be able to: 1) Demonstrate familiarity with difficult pelvic anatomy and navigate through a difficult hysterectomy or myomectomy robotic-assisted surgery; 2) Avoid and manage complications associated with robotic surgery; and 3) Incorporate other technological advancements to enhance and succeed in performing robotic surgery and other robotic surgical platforms.
