We had the great pleasure of having a lecture by Dr. Mario Leitao on sentinel lymph node mapping in endometrial cancer at the Robotic Surgery Postgraduate Program of the Einstein Hospital São Paulo.
His talks always take me out of the “memorization mindset” in Medicine and (…)
MY take-home message about SLN in high grade tumors:
In tumors with a worse prognosis, being proportionally aggressive surgically is not always the answer. These patients need effective adjuvant treatment, not the removal of every clinically normal lymph node. SLN is enough.
We surgeons overestimate our experience. How lucky we are to have Rene at the 11th International Gynecologic Oncology Symposium.
Hope he could convince that GOOD EVIDENCE should guide our practice. Always a pleasure to learn from him.
What do you think this lecture was about? 🤣
We are at Barretos for the Gynecologic Oncology IRCAD course. @leitaomd @RParejaGineOnco
The after party: getting to know Bogota with new friends. Thank you again @RParejaGineOnco for bringing us together. @oncohoegl @Camerina7718 @AndreFernandes2

A career first - a scientific meeting that includes only female speakers/moderators. Congrats to @RParejaGineOnco for organizing & to our male colleagues in the audience #HeforShe @IGCSociety @FlorenciaNoll @gefcintra @MelissaLoVaron @RSalaniMD @AndreFernandes2 @MDAndersonNews
A whole inspirational lecture about the role of women in Gynecologic Oncology by the amazing Juliana Rodriguez @julianalrc and a well deserved public recognition to Dr Flor Noll as a role model for us Gyn Oncologists from Latin America.
Amazing meeting of the Colombian Association of Gynecologic Oncologists. Full audience of colleagues from all Latin America and incredible high level lectures!
Congratulations to president Rene Pareja @RParejaGineOnco
But… because we were on time, there was enough time for discussion and questions, when we could share our experience (which is of course very important and valuable… but published evidence is better!).
The 7th National Symposium of the Brazilian Gynecologic Oncology Group @br_gynoncgroup is taking place with amazing lectures from national and international experts. Kudos to our president @glaucobaiocchi and Education Director @assad_daniele.

Congrats Ana!! – at Sao Paulo, Brazil
Incredibly honored to see our article on the heterogeneity and treatment landscape of ovarian carcinoma making it to the cover of the December issue of @NatRevClinOncol . Read it here: nature.com/articles/s41571-0…
IGCS session at the Brazilian Society of Surgical Oncology meeting.
It was so interesting and inspiring to hear different perspectives on teaching complex surgeries @audreytsunoda @glaucobaiocchi @pedroramirezMD @andrelopesMD @leitaomd @sbco_oficial
Through the IGCS Global Curriculum & Mentorship Program we spent the last week in Mozambique assisting the fellows in Gyn Onc surgeries.
Our former fellows are the only 3 Gyn oncs of the country and are also part of the program as local mentors. @IGCSociety – at Republic of Mozambique
Teaching complex surgeries is challenging. But technology allowed the learning curve to be steeper. IGCS educational portal and other platforms make anatomy and surgical technique accessible.

Improvement is slow, but visible. When we 1st came in 2016 cancer diagnosis was a death sentence. Training in prevention through colposcopy and leep courses led by @MilaPSalcedo and @kmschmeler and access to Gyn Onc specialists has changed this. I’m so honored to be part of this. – at Republic of Mozambique
