SUMMARY:AAGL Urogynecology/Vaginal Surgery SIG Webinar: When Mesh Goes Wrong: Surgical Management of Complex Cases and Important Peri-Operative Considerations
DESCRIPTION:AAGL Urogynecology/Vaginal Surgery SIG Webinar: Click here to register. \nWebinar Topic: When Mesh Goes Wrong: Surgical Management of Complex Cases and Important Peri-Operative Considerations \nPresented by: \nKate Woodburn\, MD\, Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist\, Greensboro\, NC\nTopic Title: Mesh in URPS: A Brief History\n \nKatie Propst\, MD\, University of South Florida\, Tampa\, FL\nTopic Title: Sling Complications\n \nJo Hill\, MD\, University of Utah\, Salt Lake City\, UT\nTopic Title: Sacrocolpoexy Mesh Complications\n \nModerated by: \nLisa Hickman\, MD\n \nWebinar Description: Mesh-augmentation for prolapse and incontinence procedures gained popularity in the 1990’s and has continued to be a mainstay of treatment for these conditions. When used properly\, these materials can be associated with high rates of symptom resolution and patient satisfaction. While uncommon\, mesh complications can arise and be associated with significant negative sequelae. The goal of this lecture is to provide gynecologic surgeons with a greater understanding of mesh properties used for these procedures\, the clinical applications for mesh\, and the contraindications for its use. Additionally\, even if these procedures are not a part of one’s clinical practice\, caring for patients with a history of mesh will be. As such\, considerations for diagnosing and managing prolapse and incontinence mesh complications will be highlighted with case-based discussions. \nWebinar Course Objective(s):\n1. To understand the properties of mesh used for prolapse and incontinence\n2. To appreciate indications and contraindications for mesh use when managing prolapse and incontinence\n3. To highlight complications associated with mesh for prolapse and incontinence\, discuss how to manage these complications and review their associated outcomes

SUMMARY:AAGL Advanced Gynecologic Ultrasound and Imaging SIG Webinar: From SonoAnatomy to Symptoms: Integrating Pelvic Ultrasound with Reproductive and Pelvic Health
DESCRIPTION:AAGL SIG Webinars Are Now Membership Exclusive: \nStarting in 2026\, AAGL’s Special Interest Group (SIG) Webinars are exclusive for AAGL Members only. You can register for multiple webinars including webinars that have not yet been scheduled. The system will send you an update once we have a confirmed dates and times. \nPlease click here to register for this webinar and to review the webinars’ topics and months offered and register. \nAAGL Advanced Gynecologic Ultrasound and Imaging SIG Webinar: \nWebinar Topic: From SonoAnatomy to Symptoms: Integrating Pelvic Ultrasound with Reproductive and Pelvic Health \nPresented by: \nMathew Leonardi\, MD\, PhD\, McMaster University Medical Centre\, Hamilton\, Ontario\, Canada\nTopic Title: Pelvic SonoAnatomy: Basics and Beyond \nCaterina Exacoustos\, MD\, PhD\, University of Rome “Tor Vergata”\, Rome\, Italy\nTopic Title: Ultrasound Diagnosis of Endometriosis: Correlation of Sonographic Findings to Symptoms and Reproductive Problems \nModerated by:\n \nSophia N. Palmer\, MD \nWebinar Description: Most MIGS surgeons rely on ultrasound reports rather than the images themselves\, yet high quality pelvic surgery increasingly demands a working knowledge of pelvic sonoanatomy. This webinar will provide a practical\, surgeon focused overview of gynecologic and adjacent pelvic structures on transvaginal ultrasound\, including bowel\, bladder\, ureters\, and other non gynecologic sites relevant to endometriosis and chronic pelvic pain. Building on this anatomical foundation\, we will then explore how specific sonographic findings correlate with symptoms\, function\, and reproductive outcomes across common pelvic conditions. Attendees will leave with a stronger mental map of the pelvis on ultrasound and a glimpse of what is coming next in advanced pelvic imaging\, including pelvic floor muscles\, nerves\, and vascularity. \nWebinar Course Objective(s):\n1. Identify key transvaginal ultrasound landmarks of normal pelvic sonoanatomy\, including uterus\, ovaries\, adnexa\, and surrounding pelvic compartments.\n2. Recognize adjacent non-gynecologic pelvic structures on ultrasound\, such as bowel\, bladder\, and ureters\, that are commonly involved in endometriosis and chronic pelvic pain.\n3. Outline emerging applications of advanced pelvic imaging\, including pelvic floor muscles\, nerves\, and vascularity\, and describe how these may inform future MIGS practice.\n4. Correlate specific sonographic findings in common pelvic conditions with patient-reported symptoms\, functional impact\, and patterns of pelvic pain.\n5. Relate pelvic ultrasound findings to reproductive outcomes and counseling\, including implications for fertility and surgical decision-making.

This one-hour\, case-based webinar offers an in-depth exploration of the diagnosis and surgical management of diaphragmatic endometriosis\, led by internationally recognized endometriosis surgeon Dr. Ricardo Pereira and moderated by Drs. Ted Lee and Victoria Vargas. \nDr. Pereira will provide a comprehensive review of preoperative assessment\, including symptomatology\, imaging considerations\, and multidisciplinary planning. The session will address surgical consent\, with particular emphasis on counseling patients regarding intraoperative findings\, extent of resection\, and potential thoracic involvement. Technical aspects of surgery will be discussed in detail\, including port placement strategies\, ergonomics of the laparoscopic approach\, and methods to optimize surgeon efficiency and safety during prolonged\, complex procedures. \nThe webinar will also cover intraoperative decision-making based on the extent and location of diaphragmatic disease\, including superficial versus full-thickness involvement\, anterior versus posterior diaphragm considerations\, and coordination with thoracic surgery when indicated. Practical pearls and pitfalls will be highlighted to help surgeons refine their approach and improve outcomes in this challenging subset of endometriosis. \nWebinar Course Objective(s):\n1. Apply a systematic\, evidence-informed approach to the preoperative evaluation and surgical planning of diaphragmatic endometriosis\n2. Integrate anatomic location and extent of disease into safe\, effective laparoscopic surgical strategies for diaphragmatic endometriosis\n3. Implement ergonomic and port placement principles to optimize surgical performance and patient outcomes in complex\nendometriosis surgery
