Fibroid Care

Mostafa Abdalla

Chair of BSGE Fibroid Care

I am honoured to submit my nomination for a position on the Council of the British Society for Gynaecological Endoscopy. As a consultant gynaecologist specializing in endometriosis and complex laparoscopic surgery, with formal training in gynaecological oncology and advanced endometriosis surgery, I bring a contemporary understanding of the clinical and training challenges facing our specialty.

I have demonstrated leadership in surgical education by founding the Pelviscope Advanced Pelvic Surgery Masterclass four years ago. Through this initiative, my mentorship of junior colleagues, and my roles as a BSGE GESEA faculty member and Thames Valley and South East London Deanery simulation faculty, I have contributed to developing structured, high-quality training opportunities and promoting evidence-based practice in complex minimally invasive surgery. This experience aligns closely with BSGE’s mission to advance excellence in gynaecological endoscopy and surgical training.

My suitability is further strengthened by experience in international engagement. As a member of the BSGE International Relations Subcommittee, I have worked to expand collaboration with international societies, organise joint sessions at international conferences, and facilitate knowledge exchange between institutions. Additionally, as an Oxford University Clinical Research Fellow, I have led a research collaboration between Oxford and Cairo Universities in pelvic and placenta accreta surgery, providing first-hand experience in building productive academic and clinical partnerships across borders.

Through these combined experiences, I can contribute meaningfully to Council strategy in education, training development, and international outreach. I am committed, proactive, and ready to work collaboratively to support the continued growth and impact of BSGE.
