What do you see here during trocar entry? Bowel? Ok, small or large bowel?...actually neither! These are DILATED VEINS in a patient with portal hypertension! Always obtain a thorough med/surg history pre-op. @PAGSconference #PAGSconference2019

“It’s not the size of the uterus, it’s not how many prior C-sections she’s had, it’s not her BMI...it’s whether I have access vaginally to the lower uterine segment and the associated vasculature.” -Dr Kho on patient selection #PAGSconference2019

#endometriosis causes significant financial, societal, physical, and mental burdens. It should not be brushed off and needs treatment by an experienced specialist who sees high volumes of these patients. If that is not you, then please refer.

Important considerations for reproductive aged women suffering from infertility and endometriosis/endometrioma #endometriosis #endometrioma #pagsconference2019 #infertilty @PAGSconference – at Paradise, NV

YES! We are not as good at visually identifying #endometriosis as we think. This is why #excision is key - provides diagnosis AND treatment.
Exactly what I was talking about before! Visual confirmation of endometriosis in only 54% of lesions that surgically may appear like endometriosis #PAGS #endometriosis

Ever wonder why vessels keep bleeding even after bipolar ligation? Because the lumen can still be patent despite desiccation and tissue shrinkage. Advanced bipolar devices help provide optimal vessel sealing. @PAGSconference #PAGSconference2019
