In addition, CME credit is not offered during Poster Sessions, Open Communication Sessions, Video Sessions, or the luncheon discussions. Continuing medical education is a lifelong learning modality designed to enable physicians to remain current with medical advances. The goal of AAGL is to sponsor educational activities that provide learners with the tools needed to practice the best medicine and provide the best, most current care to patients. As an accredited CME provider, AAGL adheres to the ACCME Policies that are relevant to AAGL, as well as to the Accreditation Criteria and the
22
ACCME Standards for Commercial Support. CM activities must: first, address specific, documented, clinically important gaps in physician knowledge, competence or performance; second, be documented to be effective at increasing physician knowledge, skill or performance; and third, conform to the ACCME Standards for Commercial Support. AAGL must not only obtain complete disclosure of commercial and financial relationships pertaining to gynecologic medicine, but also resolve any perceived conflicts of interest. All postgraduate course faculty members and all organizers, moderators and spea ers in the Scientific rogram have completed disclosures of commercial and financial relationships with manufacturers of pharmaceuticals, laboratory supplies and medical devices, and with commercial providers of medically-related services. The disclosures were reviewed by the Professional Education Committee, which resolved perceived potential conflicts of interest. The AAGL has been resurveyed by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) and awarded Accreditation with Commendation for 6 years as a provider of continuing medical education for physicians. ACCME accreditation seeks to assure the medical community and the public that AAGL provides physicians with relevant, effective, practice-based continuing medical education that supports U.S. health care quality improvement. The ACCME employs a rigorous, multilevel process for evaluating institutions’ continuing medical education programs according to the high accreditation standards adopted by all seven ACCME member organizations. These organizations of medicine in the U.S. are the American Board of Medical Specialties, the American Hospital Association, the American Medical Association, the Association for Hospital Medical Education, the Association of American Medical Colleges, the Council of Medical Specialty Societies, and the Federation of State Medical Boards of the U.S., Inc. Needs Assessment By developing educational courses in minimally invasive gynecology (MIG) we hope to increase the use of MIG and reduce the morbidity and complication rate associated with these procedures.
2019 AAGL Global Congress on MIGS
Practice Gap: At present in the United States, about 15 to 2 of the , hysterectomies performed annually utilize laparoscopic or robotic platforms. This is primarily due to lack of training during formal education and multiple barriers to acquisition of formal training once in medical practice. Gap Analysis: MIG procedures are aimed at preserving the highest possible quality of life for women by using smaller and fewer incisions, reducing pain and trauma to the body, and enabling quic er recovery. Yet, the ability to perform these more patient-friendly procedures requires most gynecologists to commit to postresidency training since they are not routinely taught during formal training. This requires a commitment to lifelong learning because of the development of new technologies and instrumentation. Planning the Intervention: Summary: The goal of our intervention is that through exposure to continuing medical education (CME) gynecologists will attend activities organized into didactic and hands-on sessions to acquire and or advance their s ills in M G. An open forum will follow with discussion designed to stimulate faculty and participants in interaction. Proposed Method: Create awareness of the role MIG plays Hands-on laboratory that will allow each participant to practice M G techniques on cadavers Transfer skill to course participants through didactic lectures, video presentations and demonstration and supervised wet lab surgery. Expectations are that future courses can be organized to spread awareness and transfer skills in MIG to other gynecologists, who are willing to commit to this lifelong process. To maximize the return of this year’s Congress, upon completion participants will be requested to explain how their newly acquired nowledge and skills will impact their practice.

This course has been approved to meet ABOG Improvement in Medical Practice requirements until 12/31/2020.
This hands-on cadaveric lab is designed for both beginner and advanced minimally invasive gynecologic surgeons and gynecologic oncology surgeons. Familiarity with pelvic and retroperitoneal anatomy is essential to optimizing safe and e cient gynecologic surgery. The lab will commence with dissection of the pelvic sidewall, identifying all avascular pelvic spaces, followed by dissection of the ureter from the pelvic brim to the trigone, dissection of the pelvic vasculature, identifying the common iliac artery and vein, internal and external iliac artery and vein, deep circumflex vessels, deep inferior epigastric vessels, uterine vessel, obliterated umbilical artery, obturator vessels, and branches of the posterior division of the internal iliac artery. Demonstration will include dissection of the pelvic splanchnic and hypogastric nerves, and identifying the obturator, genitofemoral, and ilioinguinal nerves along their entire course in the pelvis. After the brea , we will have the option for pelvic floor support procedures, or we will proceed with more detailed pelvic anatomy; dissection of the space of Retzius; completion of hysterectomy with vaginal cuff closure; and cystotomy with repair. Participants will be able to complete the hysterectomy and practice suturing. Throughout the course, expert faculty will present tips and tricks for avoiding injury. earnin ectives: At the conclusion of this course, the participant will be able to: 1) Perform a hysterectomy more easily; 2) identify and dissect all
pelvic avascular spaces, including pararectal, paravesical, rectovaginal, and presacral; 3) identify and expose the course of the ureter to avoid injury during complex gynecological surgeries; 4) identify major vascular and neural anatomic structures of the pelvis and retroperitoneum to help perform radical nerve sparing surgeries and 5) perform optional pelvic floor support procedures.

Endometriosis is commonly thought of as a surgical disease. Surgical excision is the cornerstone of treating women with endometriosis; however, taking a holistic approach to the patient can help treat other facets of a chronic condition. Expert physicians will provide an in-depth discussion on safe and appropriate surgical excision, including endometriosis affecting the bowel and urinary systems, as well as the pelvic and sacral nerves. The course will also cover neuropelveology as it relates to endometriosis patients. Practical tips for treating central sensiti ation will be provided as it is beneficial to many women with endometriosis. We will explore the co-existing conditions women with endometriosis often present with and learn how to identify and treat them. This course will have a practical focus, teaching tips and tricks for you to bring back to your operating room and how to incorporate them into your pre-operative assessment to ensure your chronic pain patient is holistically evaluated and treated. earnin ectives: At the conclusion of this course, the participant will be able to: 1) Implement a multidisciplinary treatment plan for endometriosis patients
including surgical excision as well as a holistic approach to the disease to evaluate for and treat coexisting conditions; 2) discuss how to apply surgical skills of excision of endometriosis on the bowel, ureter, and bladder to your own practice; 3) diagnose sacral nerve roots and sciatic nerve endometriosis, and construct a foundation of neuropelveology; and 4) recognize that close to 80% of women with endometriosis also have another reason, in addition to endometriosis, that may contribute to their pain.

Presented in cooperation with the AAGL Special Interest Group on Pelvic Pain
Chronic pelvic pain (CPP) is a poorly understood but highly prevalent condition, and there is little robust evidence to guide effective durable treatments. As clinicians, we play a special role in the care of women with CPP, and it is important to educate providers on the basics of caring for these patients. This course is designed for clinicians who are novices in diagnosis and management of CPP conditions or those who have a desire to expand their knowledge regarding non-invasive and invasive treatments. It is imperative for gynecologic surgeons to understand when to offer a surgical procedure and acknowledge pearls to consider peri-operatively. We will also review the evidence behind alternative therapies, e.g., acupuncture, cannabis, and relevant topics such as policies and practices in light of the opioid epidemic. earnin ectives: At the conclusion of this course, the participant will be able to: 1) Implement principles in the history and physical exam for the chronic
pelvic pain patient; 2) evaluate the critical literature for surgical and nonsurgical treatment options specific to chronic pelvic pain 3) discuss multiple modalities useful in the management of pelvic pain; and 4) identify uses of opioid therapy in managing chronic pelvic pain.

This course provides a comprehensive review of the principles and techniques of various modalities of uterine-preserving myomectomy for fibroids. ideo will be used extensively to illustrate techniques that allow successful outcomes. For centuries, the “preferred” surgery for women with these benign growths has been removal of the entire organ (i.e., hysterectomy), but the reasons for that preference—that hysterectomy is safer, and a better operation—will be questioned by review of the medical literature. The course will demonstrate, with high-quality evidence and video presentation, all of the modalities of minimallyinvasive myomectomy, including hysteroscopy, laparoscopy, robotic-assisted, and laparotomy. We will also demonstrate appropriate workup to optimize patients for the OR and discuss how to counsel and manage these women postoperatively. earnin
ectives: At the conclusion of this course, the participant will be able to:
1) Complete an appropriate workup for patients undergoing myomectomy; 2) choose the appropriate route of surgery for the individual fibroid pathology 3) describe instruments and surgical techniques for different approaches to myomectomy; and 4) counsel patients on the risk of leiomyosarcoma.

Although there have been advances in medical options and surgical approaches in endometriosis and chronic pelvic pain, it’s the patient story and their journey that drives our desire to provide better care. Join an interactive discussion as we holistically review the burden of disease and visualize the patient journey. Beginning with an understanding of the life course impact of endometriosis, we will aim to build the skills necessary to engage our patients with compassion, up to date knowledge and collaboration with other health care providers. Understanding the importance of combining treatment modalities, building a long-term care plan and disavowing common misconceptions is central to quality care in this space.

Co-Chairs: Shailesh P. Puntambekar, Audrey T. Tsunoda Faculty: Marcello Ceccaroni, Stefano Uccella Presented in affiliation with American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG)
Comprehensive anatomy and adequate surgical technique can transform a complex surgical case into a standardi ed step-by-step procedure. Minimal access procedures are based on limited and magnified surgical fields, which may impair a global perception of the anatomic structures. n this intensive course, pelvic and retroperitoneal anatomy will be unraveled with the use of various surgical films and images. ascular, urinary, nerve dissections, and the approach to the pelvic space are detailed to target deep endometriosis, bul y lesions, fibroids in di cult locations, and oncologic cases. This course will also have a special focus on the ureteric anatomy, which is the Achilles heel for the gynecologist. After this rich experience, the participants will be able to master pelvic complex cases with standard and secure surgical technique, based in a detailed anatomic review. earnin ectives: At the conclusion of this course, the participant will be able to: 1) dentify the anatomical landmar s and major pelvic structures pertinent
to gynecologic laparoscopy and retroperitoneal dissection for intermediate and advanced procedures 2) perform minimally invasive techniques to expose avascular spaces of the pelvis, parametrial ligaments, nerves, and pelvic vessels, and their relations to the ureter and retroperitoneal structures 3) apply principles of nerve-sparing surgical techniques and 4) prevent and manage vascular injuries in major retroperitoneal vessels.

As gynecologic surgeons mature in experience and s ill, few will leave their comfort one and push the surgical envelope to tac le challenges that they most fear and avoid. Those who do push the surgical envelope with sheer bravado alone ris failure and infamy. Surgeons who do succeed are those who adopt a methodical and systematic approach. Anatomy and exposure are frequently cited as the foundation of pelvic surgery. aithful practice of the principles of surgical dissection is paramount for the surgeon to venture to the next level. True mastery occurs in those who develop the ability to quic ly formulate various strategic plans when confronted with anticipated as well as unexpected surgical di culties. There is certainly no shortage of challenging pathology to push our surgical envelope in laparoscopic surgery. The obliterated anterior cul-de-sac from previous cesarean deliveries and a fro en pelvis as a result of advanced endometriosis can both present very perplexing clinical quandaries. road ligament or cervical fibroids and ovarian remnants can present different sets of challenges. The s ills to repair visceral injuries, control hemorrhage, and maintain hemostasis laparoscopically will help surgeons to minimize morbidities and decrease conversions to laparotomy. This course will explore these s ills through the use of surgical video footage to illustrate the strategies and techniques necessary to overcome the difficulties associated with various anatomy-distorting pathologies. articipants in this course will develop a greater understanding of safe and effective approaches to the challenging surgical scenarios through lectures that are both evidence- and experience-based. earnin ectives: At the conclusion of this course, the participant will be able to: 1) Articulate techniques to achieve peritoneal access in patients with
extensive anterior abdominal wall adhesions, as well as techniques necessary to overcome di culties associated with laparoscopy in obese patients 2) formulate anatomy-based strategies when confronting various challenging surgical scenarios such as fro en pelvis, cervical fibroids, and dense uterine adhesions 3) apply the principles behind the techniques in the identification and dissection of the ureter and di cult ureterolysis 4) integrate various techniques to optimi e exposure during complex pelvic surgeries 5) articulate the principles of advanced dissection of a pelvic side wall in diseased state and ) apply a holistic approach to self-improvement as a surgeon.

Hysteroscopic Solutions for the Type 2 Uterine Fibroid: Solving the Surgical Riddlet
ROOM 211
ROOM 301
Although there have been advances in medical options and surgical approaches in endometriosis and chronic pelvic pain, it’s the patients’ stories and their journey that drive our desire to provide better care. Join an interactive discussion as we holistically review the burden of disease and visualize the patient journey. Beginning with an understanding of the life course impact of endometriosis, we will aim to build the skills necessary to engage our patients with compassion, up-to-date knowledge, and collaboration with other health care providers. Understanding the importance of combining treatment modalities, building a long-term care plan, and disavowing common misconceptions is central to quality care in this space.
KARL STORZ Endoscopy is pleased to invite you to attend “Hysteroscopic Solutions for the Type 2 Uterine Fibroid: Solving the Surgical Riddle”, a Breakfast Symposium in Room 301 (3rd floor). We have assembled a nationally and internationally recognized panel of hysteroscopic surgeons to review the rationale, patient selection, and hysteroscopic techniques for extirpation of type 2 uterine fibroids.

The Jordan M. Phillips Keynote Address presents
Liz Wiseman
Our Congress theme is based on Liz Wiseman’s “Multiplier Effect.” To paraphrase Ms. Wiseman’s New York Times bestseller, a “multiplier” is a leader who inspires others to be more than they thought they could be; who brings a team together for results that are more than additive, they are synergistic; who harnesses each individual’s potential to inspire brilliance and productivity. Liz Wisemans eynote lecture will e followed y a hi h profile live interactive cadaveric demonstration that melds anatomic dissection with effective leadership and teamwork.
58
Liz Wiseman developed this approach at Oracle and is a world-renowned author, speaker, and consultant who will work with us in a dynamic setting to harness our strengths in team leadership. Master surgeons will demonstrate anatomical dissections from both robotic-assisted and traditional laparoscopic platforms, and Liz Wiseman will choreograph a session like no other where each attendee will emerge with enhanced surgical and leadership skills.

In populous China, the massive surgical volume, coupled with limited operative time and space, forces the surgeon to develop effective and e cient ways to accomplish surgical goals with whatever simple tools are available while simultaneously decreasing operative time. During the two-hour Better Together session, highly skilled COGA faculty members will present their cutting-edge innovations in various minimally invasive gynecological procedures. Through dialogue with the presenters, the attendees will gain fresh perspectives in the field as well as practical applications of new approaches. This includes sharing of experiences that will result in a rich exchange of ideas and new developments between presenters and attendees. The attendees will be inspired to explore, develop, and improve their own techniques in accomplishing their surgical goals while decreasing operative time and reducing operative complications. Rather than progressing in isolation, it is through networking, communication, and collaboration that top surgeons on both sides of the acific can further advance the practice of minimally invasive gynecological surgery around the world. Better Together provides such an opportunity.

GENERAL SESSION III
Far from the Shallow Now, Deep Dissection in MIGS Monday, November 11, 2019 5:10 pm - 6:10 pm BALLROOM B & C
How do you access and navigate deep spaces and unfamiliar territory? This course is geared to the dissection and identification of important retroperitoneal structures which all gynecological surgeons should be familiar with to facilitate pelvic dissection and avoid injuries. A basic dissection is the identification of the crossing of the uterine artery with the ureter, to assess its proximity to the cervix and avoid injury

during hysterectomy, or even safely perform a uterine artery clipping when necessary. Deeper dissection will be provided so that gynecological surgeons will be able to identify and preserve pelvic side wall vascular and nervous structures. The pelvic autonomic nerves will be dissected, and adequately described during resection of uterosacral

MARC POSSOVER ZĂźrich, Switzerland Possover International Medical Center
Game of Zones is not fantasy, but it is full of drama! Based on the HBO award-winning drama, we invite you to join the Houses of Laparoscopy as the leaders of three Kingdoms battle with excellent surgical technique to gain the ultimate reward: The Stainless-Steel Throne. Three subspecialty surgeons will demonstrate their expertise and make this information useful to the generalist MIGS surgeon. This strategy contest is set in a fictional medieval world. It places the surgeon in the role of a monarch who will be demonstrating access to and surgical excellence in one of three zones: The Anterior Zone, the Neuropelveology Zone, and the Bowel Zone. 80

They must use optimal surgical technique amid sound advice, heckling, and wisdom of their advisors and foes to make these dissections and surgical techniques useful to the generalist gynecologic surgeon. You as the audience are the townspeople who judge them on their ability to make the subsurgical techniques useful to the generalist gynecologic surgeon.
conditions like endometriosis. Jon Snow will use his surgical prowess to demonstrate neuropelveology and make this access and surgery relevant to general minimally invasive gynecologic surgeons. The leader of the House of Lannister will single-handedly demonstrate how knowledge of bowel surgery is essential for the generalist in the setting of endometriosis or intestinal injury and repair.
This session will include 3 cadaveric dissections. The Mother of Dragons will demonstrate urogynecologic techniques to access the Anterior Zone and show how support procedures may be used by MIGS surgeons when necessary to provide support or dissect when necessary for
Three Zones, three Leaders, each competing to win the Stainless-Steel Throne. The goal is to make the dissection relevant to the general gynecologic surgeon while focusing on the details of the dissection at hand. Who teaches the best? You decide.

Cervical cancer is the fourth most common malignancy and the fourth leading cause of cancer-related death in women, with an estimated 5 , new cases and 311, deaths anticipated worldwide in 2 1 . Surgery is the most important treatment modality impacting survival in early-stage disease. owever, the recently conducted aparoscopic Approach to Cervical Cancer ( ACC) Trial and other contemporary studies have called into question the safety of performing minimally invasive surgery in this setting. evertheless, unanswered questions remain regarding the best surgical approaches to treat early-stage disease. This session provides an overview of the issues raised with the ACC trial and accompanying studies with a discussion of pertinent findings and surgical trial pitfalls. urther, we will discuss where we are headed in terms of future trial ideas and potentially promising experimental techniques that may mitigate the ris of local recurrence after radical hysterectomy. Technique videos that are applicable to both laparoscopic or open radical hysterectomy will be emphasi ed. Course Objectives: At the conclusion of this activity, the participant will be able to: 1) Discuss the data from the ACC trial and accompanying epidemiologic studies regarding the impact of minimally invasive radical hysterectomy on clinical and survival outcomes for women with early-stage cervical cancer and 2) review promising experimental techniques to potentially decrease the local recurrence ris after radical hysterectomy with laparoscopic and open techniques.

This advanced surgical tutorial will cover state of the art o ce, diagnostic and operative hysteroscopy. Hysteroscopic surgery is the least invasive approach for the management of a myriad of intra-uterine structural abnormalities. This session will share tips and tric s from the Masters, to safely and e ciently perform many of these procedures in the o ce setting. The epidemic of C-sections has led to new entities such as sthmocele, or cesarean scar defect, which requires highly speciali ed hysteroscopic s ills to perform sthmoplasty. The faculty will also navigate the diagnosis and management of ntra-uterine adhesions or Ashermans syndrome. ne approach to decrease the ris of intra-uterine adhesions is the focused hysteroscopic resection of retained products of conception, which will be covered in this session as well. Learning Objectives: At the conclusion of this activity, the participant will be able to: 1) erform o ce hysteroscopy, diagnose and treat sthmocele, ntrauterine adhesions, and retained products of conception.

Shailesh P. Puntambekar Maharashtra, India
Moderators: R. Wendel Naumann, Charlotte, NC, Carolyn E. Selmer, Roseville, CA
This case provides a live surgical demonstration of a laparoscopic uterine harvest. An advantage of laparoscopy is that the magnification aids in ligation of all branches of the uterine artery resulting in reduced bleeding after reperfusion in the patient. Techniques for using one uterine artery, a single ovarian vein, achieving longer pedicle lengths and suturing of the cervicovesical and Denonvilliers fascia will be discussed and demonstrated. Learning Objective: At the conclusion of this activity, the participant will be able to: 1) Demonstrate a laparoscopic
case from the initial dissection all the way down to the pouch of Douglas and the uterosacral ligaments. A careful dissection should be performed to separate the organs and to restore the normal anatomy before approaching the nodule on the anterior wall of the rectum. The nodule should be removed with monopolar hook or cold scissor trying to be radical on the disease and conservative toward the function minimizing the risk of postoperative complications. Learning Objective: At the conclusion of this activity, the participant will be able to: 1) Describe how to approach posterior compartment endometriosis; 2) Discuss the different surgical technique to approach bowel endometriosis; and 3) Perform a deep endo bowel shaving procedure.

Nucelio Lemos
Toronto, Ontario, Canada Moderators: Sven Becker, Frankfurt, Germany, M.Jonathon Solnik, Toronto, Ontario, Canada
Autonomic nerve damage is one of the most important causes of morbidity after radical resection of endometriosis. This live surgery session will focus on the role of pelvic, sacral and hypogastric nerve dissection on the treatment of parametrial endometriosis, and the LANN technique will be used to demonstrate the pelvic neuroanatomy. Techniques for surgical handling of pelvic nerves will be discussed and demonstrated, as well as the concept of nerve-sparing surgery through the direct visualization of nerve bundles. Learning Objective: At the conclusion of this activity, the participant will be able to: 1) Recognize the autonomic and somatic nerve bundles crossing the pelvis; 2) discuss which steps of radical resection of endometriosis are most associated to autonomic nerve damage; and 3) implement essential nervesparing techniques into their practice.

This case provides a live surgical demonstration of laparoscopic surgery in a setting of advanced pelvic endometriosis with previous live ultrasound. This is an effective technique in symptomatic patients when medical options fail or are poorly tolerated/ contraindicated. It can be considered a feasible and safe procedure, but a highly complex surgery, requiring specific skills in laparoscopic procedures with dedicated preoperative evaluation and optimal knowledge of surgical anatomy (neuro anatomy) and the handling of instruments and electrosurgery technologies. This session demonstrates surgical technique, discusses appropriate candidates for this procedure, and shows tips and tric s to overcome the di culties related to distortion of pelvic anatomy due to severe pelvic deep infiltrating endometriosis.

W E D N E S D A Y
Laparoscopic retrieval of the uterus from a donor provides longer pedicle lengths; better ligation of branches of the uterine artery; shorter surgical time and lesser morbidities for donor surgery. The patient benefits with improved vascular anastomoses, in turn, reducing chances of rejection. Longer pedicles help in attaining resemblance to natural supports of the uterus. Laparoscopic retrieval helps in better visualization, and replicable steps to all young aspirants. All these benefits aid in quic er recovery of both donor and the patient. Learning Objective: At the conclusion of this activity, the participant will be able to: 1) Demonstrate and discuss the procedures for uterus transplantation and general issues.
