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. We have developed realistic models to develop and practice the skills, which are required to excise peritoneum and work in the difficult places of dissection.
This module covers all aspects of safe laparoscopic surgery, laparoscopic removal of endometriosis, and clinical aspects of laparoscopic surgery.
Reading list for Module 2 forms the basis of the IRAT (individual readiness assessment test).
Video lecture depicting the basic principles of excisional techniques. Peritoneal excision is one of the common operations for peritoneal endometriosis.
The video shows the peritoneal excision with Monopolar retractable needle. The video shows all the safe steps to carry out safe peritoneal excision.
Presentation by Mr Richardson to outline the principles of laparoscopic surgery in different clinical scenarios. This outlines the safe laparoscopic entry, insertion of primary and secondary trocar and related risks.
Essay lecture discussing the skills acquisition, theories of learning and feedback with special emphasis on learning laparoscopic skills. This summarizes the theories behind learning, cognitive skills and feedback.

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.

Mr Raza is a Minimal Access Surgeon and Consultant Gynaecologist with specialist interest in minimal access surgery. He completed his specialty training in West midlands and London deanery. He worked in Birmingham Womens hospital and established number of laparoscopic courses including basic and advanced laparoscopic courses. Mr Raza later moved to London in Chelsea and Westminster hospital as a Fellow in Laparoscopic surgery.
He signed in for post-graduation in Advanced laparoscopic surgery in Surrey University. He successfully completed his postgraduate certification and later appointed as a consultant in Chelsea and Westminster hospital. He is now performing the major laparoscopic surgery for endometriosis, uterine fibroids, ovarian cysts and hysterectomy.
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.
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 surgical techniques of salpingectomy and and salpingostomy are addressed in this module.
