Description: Global progress in minimally invasive gynecologic surgery requires more than new techniques: it requires broader access, disciplined judgment, purposeful technology, and reproducible safety. Drawing on perspectives from India, Spain, the United Kingdom, and Morocco, this session moves from awareness and access through advanced surgical innovation, precision, complex decision-making, and prevention of urologic injury.

Learning Objectives: After attending this session, the participant will be able to: 1) Describe approaches to improve awareness of and access to care for deep infiltrating endometriosis; 2) Identify patient-selection, preparation, and technical safety considerations for balloon-assisted laparoscopic cerclage in a periviable salvage setting; 3) Evaluate how fluorescence guidance and multidisciplinary decision-making can improve precision in complex gynecologic surgery, including renal endometriosis; and 4) Apply practical strategies to reduce urologic complications during laparoscopic hysterectomy.
