Shriraam Ayyar thank you.. this definitely helps grow my understanding of my complicated vaginal surgeries; and with already the necessary skill set of very good basic laparoscopy and excellent vaginal surgery I'm sure it would possibly be an easy transition for me. Thank you Prof Jan F Baekelandt for your impressive work and thank you dear friend dr. Suyash Naval, India for helping me grow.. - Shriraam Ayyar

vNOTES: Surgery without visible scars
vNOTES (transVaginal Natural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic Surgery) is a long complicated medical acronym simply meaning: surgery leaving no visible scarring. In the past, most gynaecological operations were performed through a large incision in the abdominal wall. In the last 30 years this open surgery technique has been replaced by laparoscopic or keyhole surgery: operations performed through a number of smaller incisions in the abdominal wall. vNOTES is the next evolution in gynaecological surgery and enables surgeons to perform nearly all gynaecological operations without making any abdominal incisions. We can finally give our patients the gift of having no visible scars at all. Instead of making abdominal incisions, vNOTES operations are performed through the vagina using an endoscopic camera and microsurgical instruments.
Advantages:
Besides the aesthetic advantages of leaving no visible scars, vNOTES reduces the invasiveness of the surgery.
Procedures:
vNOTES enables the removal of nearly all uteri, ovaries, ovarian cysts, fallopian tubes and many type 3 to 7 myomas without making abdominal incisions.

This course will teach you in-depth all the theory and techniques of vNOTES surgery. It consists of 3 modules and 32 tutorial videos and animations. You’ll be able to analyse the procedures by switching between camera angles to view the operation from different angles. Animated videos are used to give you detailed explanations.
This theory course forms the first part of becoming an iNOTESs certified vNOTES surgeon. At the end of each video, you will be required to correctly answer a number of questions to enable progression to the next video. After completing all 32 videos and answering all questions correctly you will receive the iNOTESs theory certificate and can then progress to the dry lab course.
Upon successful completion of this course, the Practical Hands-on vNOTES course will be conducted in an iNOTESs approved training center (at an additional cost).
