Transatlantic Exchanges: Shaping the Future of Minimally Invasive Gynecologic Surgery
As minimally invasive surgical approaches continue to evolve through medical innovation and technological advancement, collaboration between international societies, and the application of human intelligence, has become increasingly essential for shaping the future of gynecologic surgery. For these reasons, ESGE and AAGL will present their first collaborative Congress, held entirely virtually, on January 24, 2026, 6:00am PST/ 10:00am EST/ 3:00pm CET.
The theme of this six-hour Virtual Congress, “Transatlantic Exchanges: Shaping the Future of Minimally Invasive Gynecologic Surgery,” reflects a shared commitment to advancing our field through global cooperation. Experts from both sides of the Atlantic have joined forces to share their knowledge and experience, offering new and potentially disruptive perspectives across all aspects of gynecologic surgery. Rather than replicating sessions from recent ESGE and AAGL Global Congresses, our goal is to present innovative—and even disruptive—ideas that spark new concepts and directions, drawing on the collective knowledge, experience, and imagination of leading experts.
Topics that will be presented include Anatomy, Hysteroscopy, Oncology, Endometriosis, Neuropelveology, Urogynecology, Robotics and Imaging in MIGS. Two sessions will run concurrently, allowing a choice for your attendance. Join us not only to listen and learn, but also to share your ideas and questions. This virtual meeting will be held via Zoom, with a live chat feature available at the conclusion of each session. To view the sessions you miss, registrants will have access to the complete recorded program following the Virtual Congress.
