Reconstruction after FGM/C is a relatively young and underinvestigated field. World’s experts will share knowledge and experience to improve the care for women and girls with FGM/C and promote networking for future collaborations and research.

Purpose of the event

The aim is to provide an in-depth anatomical understanding of the vulva through oral presentations and cadaver dissection. Different reconstructive approaches will be presented, sharing experiences in low and high prevalence FGM/C settings, together with multidisciplinary care, management of complications and outcome evaluation. There will be opportunities for constructive exchange and networking among participants.
