Minimal access surgery contributes towards the improvement of the quality of life of patients who must undergo gynecological surgery. Unfortunately, many patients end up undergoing open surgery, and face multiple barriers to their care. This webinar aims to provide tools to allow healthcare providers to offer their patients less invasive surgical options in a safe and feasible manner.
