OVERVIEW

Florida Third Space Endoscopy Workshop is organized by AdventHealth Nicholson Center and will be held from Dec 07 - 09, 2025 at AdventHealth Nicholson Center, Celebration, Florida, United States of America.

Beginners Two Day Course: December 7 & 8, 2025
Advanced Three Day Course: December 7, 8, 9, 2025

Course Overview:
The Florida Third Space Endoscopy Workshop aims to update practicing advanced endoscopists in the latest procedures in third space endoscopy, including endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), per-oral endoscopic myotomy (POEM), gastric per-oral endoscopic myotomy (G-POEM), submucosal tunneling resection, and more.

The primary goal of the course is to provide a comprehensive, individualized hands-on workshop on current and emerging techniques in third space endoscopy. The course will have two different agendas: one tailored for beginners and one for those with prior exposure and clinical experience in third space endoscopy (advanced). The hands-on sessions will be taught by experience world-renowned experts in the field. The low faculty to participant ratio will ensure a one-of-a kind immersive workshop.

Course Description:

  • Immersive dedicated hands-on workshop in third space endoscopy
  • Course designed with separate agendas tailored for beginners and experienced endoscopists in third space endoscopy
  • Intensive hands-on experience in ex-vivo and animate models with low faculty to attendee ratio
  • Live endoscopy and video case-base discussions with world-renown faculty
  • Short didactics

Learning Objectives:
At the conclusion of the workshop, participants should be able to:

  • Understand and demonstrate the core techniques for POEM and ESD (knowledge and application)
  • Identify the benefits of ESD for the management of neoplastic lesions in the GI tract (knowledge)
  • Identify the risks of third space endoscopic procedures and the correct identification and management of adverse events (knowledge)
  • Understand the type of lesions in the gastrointestinal tract most suitable for ESD (knowledge)
  • Demonstrates proper techniques of endoscopic submucosal dissection including the use of traction assistance (application)
  • Demonstrates proper use of tissue apposition and closure devices (application)
