The World Robotics Gynecology Congress (WRGC) is back by popular demand. This 10th iteration represents an amalgamation of evolving techniques, outcomes and experience from some of the most prolific robotic surgeons in the world. Since its inception in 2009, WRGC has provided a haven for practicing surgeons to convene and exchange ideas to advance their knowledge and skills in the application of robotics in complex pelvic surgery. This year’s interactive congress will have an emphasis on minimally edited video-based surgical tutorials covering the gamut of gynecologic procedures and pathology. Live demonstrations on set up and docking will kick off the congress. Relevant clinical updates will be addressed throughout the congress while advancements in cutting edge complementary technology to enhance robotics are introduced.

Target Audience: Gynecologists who are incorporating robotics into their surgical practice

Upon conclusion of the activity, participants will be better able to:

• Describe safe & efficient operating room setup, trocar placement, and docking.
• Review and evaluate surgical techniques and principles to enhance the performance of complex gynecologic procedures that address the gamut of pathology.
• Cite ways to avoid and manage complications through innovative technologies such as advanced energy use and improved ureteral identification.
• Integrate complementary technologies to facilitate robot-assisted gynecologic surgery.
