Beyond PAS: Anatomy-Guided Surgery for Complex Caesarean Delivery

Learn how anatomy-guided dissection and haemostasis used in PAS can improve safety across a broader range of complex caesarean deliveries.Dear Colleagues,We are delighted to invite you to our upcoming CS webinar, “Beyond Placenta Accreta Spectrum: Applying Anatomy-Guided Surgical Principles to Complex Caesarean Delivery”.This webinar-focused, case-driven session will explore how advanced surgical dissection and topography-guided haemostasis concepts developed for PAS can be successfully applied to manage routine and challenging non-PAS caesarean deliveries. Part of the GEFOG Complex Caesarean Section Webinar Series.The webinar is organised by the GEFOG Health Foundation, in collaboration with Prof. Asma Khalil and Prof. Albaro Nieto-Calvache.Event Details:Date: Sunday, 12 July 2026Time: 16:00–18:00 BST | UK timeFormat: Online webinarRegistration: Free worldwideWhat You Will LearnWhy complex caesarean delivery should be recognised as a broader surgical entity beyond PASHow PAS-derived surgical principles can be applied to other challenging caesarean deliveriesHow to achieve optimal surgical exposure and recognise altered pelvic anatomyPrinciples of safe bladder dissection and identification of appropriate surgical planesHow to apply anatomy-guided and topography-guided haemostasisHow structured surgical planning can improve intraoperative decision-makingHow complex non-PAS cases can support progressive surgical training and skills developmentExpert Faculty:Prof. Asma Khalil — ModeratorLead Consultant for Multiple Pregnancy Services at St George’s University Hospitals, London, and Director of the Fetal Therapy Unit at Liverpool Women’s Hospital, Liverpool, UK.Prof. Karin A.
