The Hysteroscopy Revolution is Coming: AAGL 3rd International Summit on Hysteroscopy

The Hysteroscopy Revolution is Coming: AAGL 3rd International Summit on Hysteroscopy
March 13-14, 2026 | Renaissance Orlando Resort at Disney Springs, Lake Buena Vista, Florida
“The hysteroscope is the gynecologist’s stethoscope. How can we practice modern gynecology without it?”
This provocative question drives the philosophy behind what promises to be the most transformative hysteroscopy education experience you’ll attend in 2026. The AAGL 3rd International Summit on Hysteroscopy: Mastering Hysteroscopy – Advanced Techniques for the Modern Gynecologist is coming to Orlando, March 13-14, and it’s being called nothing less than “The Revolution of Intra-Uterine Surgery.”
Mark your calendars now—this is an opportunity you simply cannot afford to miss.
An Extraordinary Assembly of Global Expertise
Picture yourself learning from faculty whose collective expertise spans decades of pioneering work that has shaped modern hysteroscopic surgery. Under the expert leadership of Scientific Program Co-Chairs Linda D. Bradley, MD, Jose A. “Tony” Carugno, MD, and Nash S. Moawad, MD, this summit assembles 19 internationally renowned thought leaders from nine countries—masters who literally authored the textbooks and myriad peer review articles and established the techniques we all rely on.
The distinguished faculty roster includes:

- Brunella Zizolfi, MD, PhD (Italy)
This is the most concentrated assembly of hysteroscopic expertise you’ll find anywhere in the world.
A Revolutionary Learning Experience
This isn’t your typical medical conference. The summit features pre-recorded dynamic surgical procedures transmitted from operating rooms worldwide, giving you unprecedented access to watch masters perform complex cases step-by-step. You’ll witness techniques in action through a dazzling array of high-quality videos and “live” tele-surgical procedures that capture nuances impossible to see in traditional lecture formats.
But here’s what truly sets this summit apart: intimate access to faculty. Unlike massive conferences where speakers vanish after their presentations, this summit is designed for genuine “curbside conversations” with hysteroscopic pioneers. Multiple interactive Q&A panels, audience-driven discussions, and networking receptions create unparalleled opportunities to get your specific questions answered by the very experts who can solve them.
NEW: The Hysteroscopy Innovations Expo 2026
This year debuts an exciting new feature—a hands-on technology showcase where you can test-drive the latest hysteroscopic innovations before investing. The Expo features live equipment demonstrations by master surgeons, interactive simulation laboratories, and direct access to leading manufacturers including Hologic, Karl Storz, Medtronic, Gynesonics, and others. Evaluate cutting-edge instruments firsthand and receive a complete startup kit with billing codes, administrative templates, and implementation checklists.
Comprehensive Clinical Mastery: From Foundation to Frontier
The two-day program is thoughtfully structured around themed days: Day 1 focuses on “Foundation to Hysteroscopic Excellence: Mastering the Fundamentals,” while Day 2 advances to “Pushing Boundaries & Managing Complexity.”
You’ll master critical topics including:
- Office Hysteroscopy Excellence: Setup optimization, evidence-based pain management, ROI analysis, and the office versus OR decision matrix
- Advanced Operative Techniques: Submucous myomas and polyps, intrauterine adhesion prevention and navigation, Müllerian anomaly management, cervical stenosis solutions, and tissue retrieval systems
- Cutting-Edge Innovations: AI integration in hysteroscopy, ultrasound and fluoroscopy-guided techniques, RPOC management revolution, and fertility-sparing cancer treatments
- Critical Safety Protocols: “Keeping Lawyers & Lifeguards Out of Your OR”—systematic approaches to complication prevention and management
Hot Topics & Heated Debates
Engage directly in the field’s most controversial discussions during “Controversy Corner,” featuring spirited faculty debates on:
- “The Great Septum Debate: Take it or Leave it?”
- Cesarean Scar Ectopic: The New Challenge
- Adenomyosis: Hysteroscopy’s Final Frontier?
Beyond Clinical Skills: Build Your Practice
Most conferences ignore the business side of medicine. Not this one. You’ll receive comprehensive practice-building tools including billing and coding mastery for profitability, workflow enhancement strategies, technology integration plans, and cost-effectiveness analyses. Leave with actionable resources for immediate office implementation.
