WELCOME MESSAGE & RATIONALE

Dear colleagues and friends
It is a great honour to welcome you to the International Course "Winds of Change: Modern Management of Female Pelvic Floor Dysfunction" to be held in Palermo on 17-18 November 2023.
The Scientific Committee has worked hard on the programme of the course and has proposed a number of innovative and interesting sessions.
Starting with the study of the anatomical, neuroanatomical and neurophysiological aspects of the pelvic floor, during the two days we will deal with the treatment of the most disabling female pelvic floor dysfunctions in an updated and very modern key.
We will discuss the use of radiofrequency, laser and other energies, effective surgical procedures, rehabilitation, imaging, prevention and good lifestyle, and aesthetic and functional gynaecology.
We are confident that, by the end of the course, delegates will have an up-to-date and practical insight into the management of pelvic floor disorders, with plenty of time for discussion and direct interaction with the distinguished guest speakers and moderators.
We would like to thank the Scientific Partner Societies and Institutions who have supported the course, recognising its scientific value, and wish all the colleagues and friends who will be joining us in Palermo a pleasant stay.
It will be a great pleasure to welcome many of you to the beautiful island of Sicily.
