This workshop delivers a structured, step-by-step framework to help surgeons overcome these technical hurdles, enabling faster operative times, superior tissue approximation, and enhanced patient safety during laparoscopic myomectomies, total laparoscopic hysterectomies (TLH), and pelvic floor repairs.
Scheduled as an intensive post-conference technical session for the Middle East Obstetrics & Gynecology Conference (MEGO), the Laparoscopic Suturing Workshop will take place on March 21, 2027, in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Designed specifically for surgical residents, fellows, and practicing gynecologists seeking to master intracorporeal suturing and knot-tying techniques, this four-hour practical masterclass focuses on bridging the gap between basic minimally invasive surgery and complex reconstructive laparoscopy. Suture handling remains one of the most challenging skill sets to master in laparoscopic gynecology due to rigid port angles, fulcrum effects, limited tactile feedback, and two-dimensional visual fields. This workshop delivers a structured, step-by-step framework to help surgeons overcome these technical hurdles, enabling faster operative times, superior tissue approximation, and enhanced patient safety during laparoscopic myomectomies, total laparoscopic hysterectomies (TLH), and pelvic floor repairs. The workshop's comprehensive curriculum combines theoretical updates on surgical ergonomics with high-yield experimental exercises and interactive video-based learning. Participants receive hands-on instruction covering needle loading, needle driving angles, port placement optimization, tissue tension control, and efficient geometry for both intra- and extracorporeal knot tying. Beyond fundamental mechanics, the course addresses advanced surgical scenarios, including managing difficult angle suturing, vascular hemostasis under pressure, and continuous vs. interrupted suture line techniques for uterine defect closure. Attendees also learn practical troubleshooting strategies to prevent thread entanglements, avoid tissue shearing, and minimize surgical fatigue through proper body mechanics at the console and operating table. Led by a distinguished faculty of minimally invasive gynecologic surgeons—including Dr. Mustafa Aldam, President of MEGO, alongside senior sub-specialist consultants—the workshop provides direct expert feedback in a small-group, skill-focused environment. Through hands-on dry-lab practice models, real-time procedural demonstrations, and interactive reviews of complex surgical cases, participants gain actionable tips and efficiency shortcuts to refine their operative precision. Ultimately, the MEGO Laparoscopic Suturing Workshop equips surgical teams with the technical confidence, dexterity, and refined suturing proficiency required to execute complex minimally invasive gynecological procedures smoothly and safely.
