We spent last week in Karachi working at Koohi Goth Hospital, an IMR partner for the last few years. One aspect we've committed to is enhancing surgical training in pelvic fistulas. Eight local Pakistani surgeons joined us from around the country to improve their vaginal surgical skills. Our teaching came as a combination of lectures and hands-on surgical teaching for the week. What a great group to work with and we'll follow everyone's progress when they head back to their home institutions!
