Mission statement and fields of interest

SIG Reproductive Surgery is concerned to promote the usefulness of minimal invasive diagnostic tools in reproductive gynecology as well as to promote the surgical therapy of organic causes (such as malformations, polyps, endometriosis, adenomyosis, fibroids, hydrosalpinges...) leading to infertility, by appropriate “preservation” and/or as first step of treatment of infertile couples in order to re-establish fertility or create the best conditions to improve ART outcome.
As Primum non nocere also safety in surgery is on the scope. Knowledge on safe surgical access, correct use of instruments in particular electric ones, prevention of surgery-correlated injuries specially in endoscopic techniques have to be correctly acquired form young surgeons before starting.

Aims
