Society of European Robotic Gynaecological Surgery (SERGS)

SERGS is a non-profit organization for the study of robotic techniques in gynaecologic surgery.

Since 2009 and its foundation by Pr A Maggioni, SERGS has worked on the development of the knowledge in robotic surgery in Europe, with the emerging of strong international collaboration in different surgical fields like oncology and endometriosis.

Their society is young and they must continue to develop these collaborations particularly with national societies which are interested in robotic surgery but also interested in minimal invasive surgery.

Beside the importantce to communicate, the role of SERGS is also to educate: a fellowship program of 1 year was developed in 2014.

The next step is to evaluate the new technology. For this reason, SERGS, in collaboration with CRG and BIARGS, has developed a web-based database which is an anonymous platform. The main goal of this project called EuRoD (European Robotic Database), is to collect information through a web platform from all Europe concerning robotics procedures, including 4 topics: Myomectomy, Sacrocolpopexy, Deep Infiltrating Endometriosis and Oncological Indications.

The endpoint of this project is to manage European multicentric collaborative tasks to strengthen the scientific weight of our publications in benign and oncological procedures.

Mission:
To provide better access to minimal invasive surgery for women needing a gynaecological operation, through promotion of safe and efficient use of computer assisted surgery by being the acknowledged independent society for education, certification and registration of surgeons and their teams.
