Well enchanté!!! You are the first person that performs Misgav Ladach operations that I have met -though virtual- since I have been trying to perform these operations for four years. Do you adhere to the original discription of Dr. Michael Stark or did you modify the method? For example do you really close the skin with only three separated stiches? Do you open nearly the whole fascia with caudal and cranial traction? Do you use no 1 polyglactin or no 1 chromic for one layer uterine closure? Do you believe that the absorbtion time of polyglactin is so long that it can protrude through vagina several months after the operation? Can you easily perform the operation in repeat cases or do yo have to rely on scissors more on them? A bientot!

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
