The course will include two live surgeries by renowned specialists in obstetrics and gynecology that will show attendees the latest techniques in intervention.
The training will address the advances in this disease from multiple perspectives, including medical treatments, fertility management, ultrasound diagnosis and surgical treatment over a single day.
There will be theoretical talks spread over four work tables, and an ultrasound workshop, in addition to the two live surgeries.
Endometriosis is a very common disease, it is estimated that about 176 million women worldwide suffer from this pathology, which occurs when the endometrium, a tissue of the uterus, grows out of it.
People who suffer from it can see their quality of life and reproductive capacity reduced.
The main manifestation of the disease is pain, which for some of them becomes invalidating during their daily life.
The Endometriosis Unit of La Arrixaca has two weekly exclusive consultations that receive more than 2,000 visits per year.
This training initiative promoted by SEGO has been a resounding success, with more than 700 requests for assistance, which has forced to raise future editions.
For questions of capacity, in this first edition will be three hundred people in attendance.
