Dear Fellow Members of the AAGL Community and Friends, Get ready for the AAGL in Las Vegas! The 37th AAGL annual meeting is just around the corner and it is happening in the landmark Paris Las Vegas hotel from October 28 to November 1, 2008. This year’s World Congress of Minimally Invasive Gynecology is promising to be the largest ever with the greatest number of submitted abstracts and the largest number of international experts in this field assembled in one place. Paris Las Vegas hotel is a perfect venue for our annual meeting with ample conference rooms and vast halls, all under one roof, capable of hosting a couple thousand AAGL members and industry friends. The groundbreaking General Session, entitled: “Film and Medicine: Entertainment and Technology from Yesterday to the Future”, will trace the development and future of film and its partnership with medicine. You will be able to see some of the first medical films ever made and they will leave you with a lasting impression. It is a true privilege to be reminded how far we have come in the surgical treatment of our patients. It is my pleasure to announce that Dr. Brian Cohen will serve as this conference’s Honorary Program Chair. Dr. Cohen will share with us the wealth of his endoscopy and life experience. Plan to attend the Honorary Luncheon to recognize his accomplishments and contributions to our field of practice. The scientific program is packed with activities. The AAGL will offer two full days of post-graduate courses, with intensive hands-on training. There will be two hands-on laparoscopic suturing courses and a hands-on hysteroscopy course, all on pelvic trainers. Responding to requests of many AAGL members, for the first time we will offer a post-graduate course in cosmetic gynecology. There will be three additional hands-on cadaver courses - in anatomic dissection, gyn-oncology and uro-gynecology. The scientific program will further offer eleven video sessions, eight surgical tutorials and three debates on (1) robotic surgery; (2) hysterectomy v. ablation for treatment of bleeding; and (3) intramural fibroids and infertility. Please note that, for the first time, AAGL will offer two live tele-surgery sessions – one on Friday, October 31, and one on Saturday, November 1. Throughout the meeting AAGL members will present high quality scientific studies, videos and posters, which were meticulously selected from hundreds of abstracts that we have received for the program. This year’s scientific program will once again feature popular surgical tutorials, allowing attendees to interact with premier endoscopic surgeons in a classroom setting. Debates and panels will critically examine controversies and innovations regarding robotic surgery, myomas, uterine artery embolization, the role of pelvic mesh for pelvic floor reconstruction, infertility, endometriosis, to name just a few topics of interest. A special clinical researchers’ forum has also been organized for your convenience. As always, the 37th AAGL annual meeting will offer a variety of scientific activities and we look forward to a fruitful exchange of knowledge and ideas for the ultimate benefit of our patients worldwide. Finally, consider Halloween in Las Vegas as yet another perk of this year’s meeting. Bring your costumes – we are going to have a great time! I look forward to seeing you in Las Vegas soon!

All manner of social, economic, and cultural influences have at one time or another been implicated in the endoscope’s development. Still other theories abound to explain the “vicious cycles” between acceptance and resistance that so plagued the endoscope’s history.

  • Full Circle of Innovation – from Surgical Suite Invention to a Surgical Product
    Full Circle of Innovation – from Surgical Suite Invention to a Surgical Product Surgical History Originally presented March 5, 2008 Foley Hoag, Enterprise Center, Waltham, MA Surgical History 1585, Aranzi was the first to use a light source for an endoscopic procedure, focusing sunlight through a flask of water and projecting the light into the nasal cavity 1706 The term “trocar,” was coined in 1706, and is thought to be derived from trochartor troise-quarts, a three-faced instrument consisting of a perforator enclosed in a metal cannula. 1752 Benjamin Franklin invented the first flexible, silver coil catheter for a urology application to help his ill brother and he likely used it later himself. 1806, Philip Bozzini, built an instrument that could be introduced in the human body to visualize the internal organs. He called this instrument "LICHTLEITER" 1853, Antoine Jean Desormeaux, a French surgeon first introduced the 'Lichtleiter" of Bozzini to a patient. For many surgeons he is considered as the "Father of Endoscopy“. 1868, Kussmaul performed the first esophagogastroscopy on a professional sword swallower 1869, Commander Pantaleoni used a modified cystoscope to cauterize a hemorrhagic uterine growth. Pantaleoni performed the first diagnostic and therapeutic hysteroscopy Surgical History 1901, Dimitri Ott, a Petrograd gynecologist wore head mirrors to reflect light and augment visualization 1901, The first experimental laparoscopy was performed in Berlin in 1901 by German surgeon Georg Kelling, also Creating the first pneumoperitoneum using filtered air. 1911, Bertram M. Bernheim, from Johns Hopkins Hospital introduced first laparoscopic surgery in the United States 1920, Zollikofer of Switzerland discovered the benefit of CO2 gas to use for insufflation 1929, Heinz Kalk, a German physician, introduced the forward oblique (135 degree) view lens systems.
