Pelvic Floor Consortium

Date: Saturday, May 10, 2025

Time: 12:30 - 4:30 pm Pacific Time

Location: San Diego Convention Center, 111 Harbor Dr, San Diego, CA

Circumstances may prevent some from traveling, but you can still join virtually. Wheather you plan to attend virtually or in San Diego, register to reserve your seat.

Purpose: Help create and refine expert opinion to guide care of patients with internal rectal prolapse (intussusception) and associated symptoms. Is this a surgical condition or medical condition? If we do offer surgery, which one and when? With data being murky we need your expertise to help make reasonable management suggestions.

Overview:   This year, a hard working group of dedicated consortium members did an extensive literature search on the current state of knowledge related to the topic of internal intussusception (prolapse). We now invite attendees to contribute to this process during the PFDC/ASCRS 2025 meeting by reacting to the data and to share their knowledge and expertise to see if we can make sense out of it. We will also discuss collaborative work with IUGA and ICS in the field of internal rectal prolapse, the new Ventral Mesh Rectopexy Expert Consensus Document (currently in press in DCR) and continue to refine our consortium agenda with the long term goal of improving care of patients with pelvic floor disorders.

Who can participate? All Pelvic Floor Consortium Members from all affiliated societies and ASCRS Annual Scientific Meeting attendees are welcome. We need urogynecologists, physiotehrapists, gastroenterologists and colorectal surgeons TOGETHER to make a difference.

This meeting takes place the first day of the 2025 ASCRS Annual Scientific Meeting. You may register for the Pelvic Floor Consortium meeting alone or add it on to your Annual Meeting registration. Those coming for the Pelvic Floor Consortium and not the ASCRS Annual Scientific Meeting will also be able to add Sunday’s session related to pelvic floor without registering for the full Annual Meeting.

Please register early to ensure we have enough room and refreshments.
