In this compilation video of animations and surgeries performed via laparoscopic resection, Ob/Gyn & Women’s Health Institute Chairman Tommaso Falcone, MD, explains how to identify those landmark pelvic structures and use them as guides to access the retroperitoneal space and safely excise endometriosis implants in stage IV endometriosis patients.
Dr. Falcone and Julian Gingold, MD, PhD, will present their findings at the American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM) 2016 Scientific Congress & Expo in Salt Lake City, Utah.
