Invitation

Dear Colleagues,

Neuropelveology has redefined our understanding of pelvic nerves, one of the most fundamental aspects of medicine and anatomy. Developed by Prof. Marc Possover, Founder of the International School of Neuropelveology in 2008 and President of the International Society of Neuropelveology (ISON) since 2014, this concept has established quality standards to enhance patients' quality of life, particularly in advanced gynecological surgeries.

Neuropelveology introduces a new perspective to routine surgery. While it may seem like a novel challenge for more junior colleagues, especially as we strive to push the boundaries of minimally invasive gynecology, it embodies the principle of "primum non nocere" by enabling us to improve patients' lives without compromising their well-being.

In addition to offering advanced learning modules, ISON provides a robust network, fostering a specialized community dedicated to reducing patient morbidity. At this year’s 3rd International Neuropelveology Congress in Istanbul, you will not only have the opportunity to reassess and refine your surgical expertise but also to join this exclusive community.

Looking forward to seeing you in Istanbul!

Prof. Dr. Ercan Bastu
