What is complex benign gynecology?

Complex benign gynecology focuses on advanced non-malignant gynecologic disease and surgery. Programs commonly include endometriosis, fibroids, difficult hysterectomy, advanced laparoscopy and hysteroscopy, robotic surgery, and multidisciplinary pelvic care.

How CBG relates to minimally invasive gynecologic surgery

MIGS describes an operative approach and fellowship tradition; CBG can be broader, combining advanced surgery with complex diagnosis and longitudinal benign gynecology. Some programs have renamed an established MIGS fellowship as Complex Benign Gynecology, while others retain FMIGS or local terminology.
