Pelvic Anatomy Expo 2025: Surgical and Clinical Implications of Pelvic, Hip, Spine, and Core Neuroanatomy

Friday, April 4, 2025, 7:30 AM - Sunday, April 6, 2025, 5:00 PM, St. Louis, St. Louis, MO


The Pelvic Anatomy Expo 2025 is a collaborative event that aims to cater to the evolving need for cross-disciplinary knowledge transfer. The Expo will feature four distinct didactic and hands-on cadaver courses that will span six days.  

The advancement of retroperitoneal laparoscopic techniques has opened up a new world of anatomical knowledge, leading to better surgical outcomes with lower complication rates. 

Furthermore, an improved understanding of intrapelvic neuroanatomy has pushed the boundaries of traditional medical specialties and fostered immense collaboration opportunities between gynecologists, colorectal surgeons, urologists, and pelvic surgeons who specialize in hip, spine, and peripheral nerves. 

1. Identify normal anatomic landmarks and major pelvic structures relevant to minimally invasive surgery in gynecology.
2. Demonstrate the topographic anatomy of the pelvic sidewall, including the vasculature and their relation to the ureter, autonomic and somatic nerves and intraperitoneal structures.
3. Distinguish and apply steps of safe and effective pelvic nerve dissection and learn the landmarks for nerve-sparing surgery.
