Pelvic Floor & Continence Surgery

Training Overview

Pelvic Floor & Continence Surgery is a comprehensive, simulation-based surgical education program developed for urologists, gynecologists, surgical residents, and OR professionals aiming to refine their skills in pelvic floor reconstruction and continence procedures. This two-day course integrates theoretical instruction with immersive hands-on simulation, focusing on complex pelvic anatomy, reconstructive techniques, and perioperative complication management.

The program begins with in-depth sessions on pelvic floor anatomy, continence mechanisms, surgical approaches, and preoperative assessment. Participants explore principles of tension-free sling placement, pelvic organ prolapse repair, and reconstructive strategies to optimize patient outcomes and minimize complications.

Hands-on simulation modules allow participants to perform full procedural workflows using high-fidelity pelvic simulators and anatomical models. Under expert supervision, attendees practice dissection, mesh placement, reconstructive suturing, and continence restoration techniques, emphasizing safety, precision, and functional outcomes.

Through interactive video reviews, case-based discussions, and faculty-guided debriefings, participants analyze complex surgical scenarios and refine decision-making under realistic conditions. The training incorporates structured performance feedback to enhance technical dexterity, operative planning, and intraoperative judgment.

By the end of the program, participants will have developed the technical expertise and cognitive understanding required to perform pelvic floor and continence surgeries safely, effectively, and with optimal patient outcomes.
