Overview
This meeting covers a range of theoretical and practical demonstrations of both diagnostic and operative hysteroscopic surgery. Lectures include current and future developments in hysteroscopic procedures, new energy forms and innovative ambulatory surgery. The role of hysteroscopy in the management of abnormal uterine bleeding and fertility is explored. There is an emphasis on undertaking hysteroscopic procedures in an outpatient setting with guidance on how to optimise and develop such services.
Workshops using models and computer-simulated procedures will cover diagnostic hysteroscopy; endometrial polypectomy using mechanical instruments including fine scissors, snares, graspers and hysteroscopic tissue shavers; resection of endometrium and submucosal fibroids; global endometrial ablation using non-hysteroscopic devices.
Online lectures
- Delegates will attend one day of virtual lectures (theoretical component) on Tuesday 10 October 2023 and will have access to lecture recordings post-event.
Practical workshops
Registration for the full course includes the online lectures detailed above and a one-day workshop on Thursday 19 or Friday 20 October 2023, held at the RCOG in London.
- Delegates will attend a diagnostic hysteroscopy and resection station for the duration of 3 hours. There will be a diagnostic hysteroscopy station for developing camera skills and hand-eye co-ordination and a station for viewing examples and case studies. Resection is with the potato model for the development of resection and endometrial ablation skills using electrosurgical tools.
- Rotation around a series of six stations each of 35 minutes duration, covering skills for mechanical polypectomy, submucosal fibroid resection, global endometrial ablation and tips, tricks and innovation in hysteroscopy.
Please note, places for practical workshops are limited and registration for practical workshops sessions is only available as a full conference registration.
