Laparoscopic salpingectomy and salpingotomy is one of the common operations in gynaecological emergencies. This module deals with theory and practice for the management of suspected ectopic pregnancy. The surgical techniques of salpingectomy and and salpingostomy are addressed in this module. Tissue retrieval, monopolar and bipolar energy sources and endoloop placements will also feature in this module.
This outlines the program for the day. The main aim of this module is to cover the principles of electrosurgery and ectopic pregnancy.
Lecture containing document embeds of two essential reading materials required to pass this module.
Electrosurgery constitutes a vital part of the laparoscopic surgery. There are numbers of energy resources. It is necessary fro a surgeon to understand all the energy modalities, their utilization and complications.
Essential concise summary of points learnt and required to learn regarding Electrosurgery.
Videos demonstrates basic principles of excision and retrieval of fallopian tubes. It is important to follow the rules to avoid injury.
This video will outline the techniques to carry out a safe salpingotomy. This is a valid technique in cases of contralateral tubal damage or patient wishes.

Mr Raza has taken keen interest in developing laparoscopic courses nationally and internationally. He has been on number of laparoscopic teaching faculties in Royal college of Obstetrician and Gynaecologist, ICENI Centre UK, West midlands deanery and London. He teamed up with Mr Richardson in Chelsea and developed a series of modular laparoscopic courses over last 4 years. He is now working on various teaching and training programs to develop the online platforms for minimal access surgery education.
Mr Raza has also organized advanced laparoscopic courses in various countries including Pakistan and Iraq, which have been extremely successful. The current developments in online educational platforms will help to expand these courses to surgeons in developing countries.
In research, beyond personal projects, I have been involved in two National NIHR portfolio studies recruiting patients to evaluate treatment methods/management pathways in gynaecology. The OPT study has now closed and is in the writing phase. I am now lead investigator at Chelsea for the MEDAL study: MRI to Establish Diagnosis Against Laparoscopy. I aim to recruit between 50 and 70 patients and we are on track to achieve this.
I have been appointed as a Honorary Clinical Senior Lecturer, Imperial College in recognition of contributions to the Division.

Gynaecology – Leading the Endometriosis and Rapid access services, Gynaecology – Laparoscopic and hysteroscopic surgery including out patient hysteroscopy
The course is divided into 6 modules covering all aspects of Laparoscopic surgery within the RCOG core curriculum.
This module takes the trainees through exercises for build these skills. We have designed innovative models for the trainees to use in their Laparoscopic trainers.
The excision of peritoneal disease, adhesiolysis and ureterolysis are some of the vital clinical skills which any Laparoscopic surgeon has to master for advanced Laparoscopic surgery.
