O autorze

Dr Shailesh Puntambekar is a cancer surgeon specialised in laparoscopic cancer surgery. He is heading “Galaxy Care Laparoscopy Institute’, centre for advanced laparoscopy and Robotic Surgery in Pune. Considered as an expert in Laparoscopic Pelvic surgery and Gynaecological cancer surgery in the world, he has developed laparoscopic radical hysterectomy for cancer cervix known world over as the “Pune Technique”.He has to his contribution the largest published series of laparo-scopic Exenteration for advanced pelvic cancers. His highest contribution comes in the form of Lapa-roscopic Live Donor Uterine Transplant. This was done in May 2017 and remains the first in the world. The outcome of our transplant was with the delivery of a female child on 18th October 2018. He sincerely believes that every procedure in gynaecology from the simplest TLH to the Uterine transplant is possible with an excellent understanding of Pelvic anatomy. He has coined the word “PREDICTIVE ANATOMY” which is extremely helpful in anticipating the anatomical structures.He has developed applied surgical anatomy which means using the knowledge of anatomy to develop the surgical planes. Since last few years the annual congress of AAGL (American Association of Gy-naecology Laparoscopy) has had him doing Live Cadaveric dissection as an inaugural event. He is also a regular faculty at the international school of surgical anatomy, ISSA which res the cadaveric courses at Tubingen, Germany. He has trained more than 150 international surgeons and gynaecol-ogists and 300 Indian surgeons and gynaecologists who duplicate the anatomical steps devised by him.He has demonstrated Live surgeries in 35 countries all around the world and in 200 national workshops. His teaching and concepts of pelvic anatomy have been widely acknowledged by surgeons and gynaecologists. He has authored 4 books out of which the atlas of gyne-oncology is now in its 3rd edition. He has had more than 100 publications in peer reviewed journals.

This book offers a concise and easy-to-understand overview of facts and concepts in pelvic anatomy. Laparoscopy provides good vision in a limited field, which means that surgeons have to rely on their anatomical knowledge of what structures lie in the vicinity and which structures need to be preserved. Focusing on surgical anatomy, the book helps laparoscopic surgeons better understand the female pelvic structures so improve their surgical skills.
