Zulekha Hospital hosts First Live Advanced Gynaec Laparoscopic Workshop

This is being pursued by bringing together top-tier medical professionals and raising awareness on latest treatment procedures and modalities.

We are aware how 'Key-hole' (Laparoscopic) surgery has revolutionized gynaecology in the last couple of decades. New benchmarks are being set and old gold standards are being improved upon. Especially in a world that is advancing so rapidly, laparoscopy promises to make surgery a comfortable experience with minimum blood loss and pain, a shorter convalescence and early return to normal life vis-à-vis conventional surgery. In such times, this conference imbibed the doctrine of Laparoscopy and how to make major surgeries safer through minimal invasive techniques.

This workshop also addressed the growing demand by informed patients that puts a huge responsibility on medical professionals. All surgical procedures - especially evolving types; carry a risk of mal occurrence or preventable medical errors. This is where the premium on 'enhanced physician training' like hands-on workshop with Pelvi-trainer emphasized the way ahead. Incidentally, key-hole removal of Uterus and Fibroids are now accepted procedures albeit with rigorous, focused and supervised training.

Zulekha Hospital also presented this workshop on major laparoscopic procedures as a unique opportunity to learn and share experiences with experts in the field. Dr. Neeta Warty - Gynaec Laparoscopic surgeon of international repute, along with experts from Al Wasl and Iranian Hospital chaired this workshop.

More than 125 professionals in gynaecology, infertility, and surgery participated in this Workshop which was held on 27th March '09 at Zulekha Hospital, Dubai. This workshop was certified by DOHMS with 5 Credit Hours.
