Emergency Gynecology

Join us on Sunday 9 May 2027 for our advanced livestreamed education course on 'Emergency gynecology' led by A/Prof. Ligita Jokubkiene and Prof. Davor Jurkovic , plus our panel of dedicated international experts.

This intensive course offers a comprehensive and up-to-date exploration of the assessment, diagnosis and management of gynecological emergencies, delivered by an international faculty of leading experts. Participants will enhance their understanding of emergency gynecological presentations, the role of ultrasound in acute assessment, and the identification of conditions requiring urgent intervention, supporting timely and accurate diagnosis.

The programme covers key topics including acute pelvic pain, ectopic pregnancy, ovarian torsion, haemorrhagic ovarian cysts, pelvic inflammatory disease, early pregnancy complications and acute abnormal uterine bleeding. It also explores the ultrasound assessment of adnexal masses, the identification of haemoperitoneum, and the differentiation of gynecological emergencies from other causes of acute abdominal and pelvic pain. Through expert-led case discussions, interactive live Q&A and panel sessions, delegates will gain practical insights into interpreting ultrasound findings, recognising potentially life-threatening conditions and determining appropriate management pathways.

Integrating fundamental principles of gynecological ultrasound with complex real-world clinical scenarios, this course provides evidence-based guidance and practical approaches to the assessment and management of acute gynecological conditions. Delegates will have the opportunity to learn from leading international experts, explore challenging cases and develop greater confidence in clinical decision-making, risk assessment and the timely identification of patients requiring urgent treatment.

This course is ideal for gynecologists, obstetricians, emergency medicine physicians, sonographers, radiologists, early pregnancy specialists and other healthcare professionals involved in the assessment, diagnosis and management of acute gynecological presentations.
