We are pleased to present another issue of ESGEVISION, full of news and information related to our society and gynaecological endoscopy. The ESGE was proud to be able to hold the first and largest onsite Congress after the pandemic in Rome in October 2021.
You will find a summary of activities from the Congress, prepared by the member of the Congress Team Dr Federica Campolo. Our next Congress is going to Lisbon in October this year. Lisbon was going to be our venue in 2020 but this had to be postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic. Rhona O’Flaherty, our very able General Manager, gives you a description of our plans for the ESGE 31st Annual Congress in Lisbon. We have two very important interviews in this issue of ESGEVISION.
One of these is with Professor Hans Brölmann, one of our past presidents. Hans talked to us about his personal professional journey, which gives us some insight into the history of endoscopic surgery in Europe, and the history of the European Society for Gynaecological Endoscopy. The second interview is with Professor Ranjit Manchanda who gave one of the keynote lectures at the ESGE 30th Annual Congress on ‘Risk reducing strategies for ovarian cancer’. The interview provides a very useful resume of current and future approaches to prevent ovarian cancer and the philosophy of prevention strategies.
The current issue is again full of news from ESGE Special Interest Groups, Working Groups and our Corporate Societies. I hope you enjoy reading it and look forward to seeing many of you again in Lisbon.

We are excited about the days you will be staying with us. After the exchange we hope to all meet each other at the ESGE 31st Annual congress in Lisbon.

Host Country
Portugal is a country whose mainland is located on the Iberian Peninsula, in Southwestern Europe, and whose territory also includes the Atlantic archipelagos of the Azores and Madeira. It features the westernmost point in mainland Europe and its Iberian portion is bordered to the west and south by the Atlantic Ocean and to the north and east by Spain, the sole country to have a land border with Portugal. Portugal is the oldest continuously existing nation state on the Iberian Peninsula and one of the oldest in Europe, its territory having been continuously settled, invaded, and fought over since prehistoric times.
In the 15th and 16th centuries, Portugal established the first global maritime and commercial empire, becoming one of the world's major economic, political, and military powers. Portugal has left a profound cultural, architectural, and linguistic influence across the globe, with a legacy of around 250 million Portuguese speakers, and many Portuguese-based creoles. It is a developed country with an advanced economy and high living standards. Additionally, it ranks highly in peacefulness, democracy, press freedom, stability, social progress, prosperity, and English proficiency.
The 'Exchangees' are encouraged to arrive on Tuesday evening (27th September) and stay until Friday 30th of September in their host hospital. During the working hours, the 'Exchangees' will be in the hospital with their contact person. After the hospital’s hours, the social programme will include sightseeing tours, integration in the city culture and lifestyle, enjoying daily life, etc. The scope and type of the social programme might vary from city to city.
