FROM THE PRESIDENT'S DESK

Dear Delegates,
Once again I come back to you to extend a warm and cordial invitation to attend
International Congress on “The Ovary Unraveled" from December 11-13, 2009. The
Congress will be held in the vibrant city of Mumbai, which has always been in the
forefront of academics in India. In recent years, strategic advances in Assisted
Reproductive Technology, Imaging Sciences, Operative Endoscopy and
Pharmacological Therapies have made significant progress in the management of the
infertile couple. What was thought to be untreatable is now routinely investigated and
successfully treated. Infact, there exist very few absolute cases of infertility in the 21st
century. The scientific committee has worked very hard while developing the

rg
programme with two facts in mind: - to give a platform to renowned international and

.o
national research workers who have contributed towards advances in the
superspeciality and to display the astounding rapid developments occurring in the area

09
of management of Infertility. The scientific deliberations will be of immense interest to
SADHANA DESAI
President both the beginners and the experts. All that is successful will be highlighted by our
20
faculty. All that is controversial will be debated and discussed in the panel discussions.
Special emphasis has been given to the 10 pre-congress & post-congress workshops
ry

by ensuring that the faculties introducing the subjects are the eminent specialists in their
respective fields. I am sure; you will be able to add new names to the list of leading
va

physicians and scientists who will take the subject forward towards new frontiers in the
future.
.o

I am confident that, after attending the congress, you will go back home with a lot of new
w

ideas, procedures and developments. The conference will surely impart prudent and
relevant carry home messages for all of you.
w

The trip to Mumbai will be definitely pleasant, weather-wise and socially and personally
w

relaxing. The Renaissance Hotel provides a luxurious ambience in lap of greenery away
from the hustle bustle of the city. We have provided attractive accommodation
packages for all of you who wish to stay at the venue itself and enjoy the facilities. It will
be scientific and technological landmark - this has been our concept and we hope our
results will match it. We are looking forward to your visit and participation.
With warm regards,

Dr. Sadhana Desai

President, ISAR
MOGS PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

Dear Colleague,
On behalf of the organizing committee, it is my great honor and pleasure to welcome you to
the Global Conference in Reproductive Medicine, jointly organized by ISAR - Indian Society of
Assisted Reproduction and Mumbai Obstetric and Gynecological Society (MOGS), here at
The Renaissance Mumbai Hotel in evidently the warmest, liveliest, and most spirited cities, to
perhaps the most contemporarily significant and inspiring themes 'The Ovary Unraveled'.
GAUTAM ALLAHABADIA Despite the undaunted progress in reproductive technology to dimensions that have
MOGS-PRESIDENT transgressed natural, cultural and ethical boundaries, here is an organ whose significance
has undeniably escalated with the increasing technological applications. The motive of this
Conference is to bring the most debatable and pressing problems that focus on the ovary
and surmount infertility practice to the forum of discussion, unravel the presumed mysteries

rg
that mist a clear perception of the etiology, pathophysiology and management of related
disorders, present cutting edge technology in assisted reproduction, imaging, cellular and

.o
molecular biology, and glean outdated knowledge.

09
The highlights of the Conference include 6 Pre-Congress Workshops on December 11th
2009 on topics that have long bogged reproductive medicine and hampered its success, and
fresh strategies with the potential to take the practice to newer, yet safer, dimensions-
20
Repeated IVF failures, comprehensive insights into the evaluation and management of
Endometriosis, Stimulation Protocols, the Oocyte and Hands on Laparoscopic Suturing and
ry

Operative Hysteroscopy among them. This shall be followed by The Conference Oration on a
disorder that often carries its unpleasant trails from birth to senescence-The Polycystic Ovary
va

Syndrome, and the ethical and cultural debate that ART has unprecedently landslided into.
As we journey through the scientific programme on December 12th and 13th, we will
.o

endeavor to expose you to an international assemblage of authoritative and pragmatic views

on the present and future, the dilemmas and experiences in the management of ovarian
w

pathology, innovations, applications and limitations in monitoring ovarian function, and the
significant role of lifestyle modifications in fertility.
w

In an era where the lightening pace of technology and its successful applications have
w

superceded a careful evaluation of its implications and jumped regulatory intentions, we

hope that through these stimulating lectures we shall be able to impart the necessary
knowledge required to rethink, translate technology at its best to safe, effective and judicious
clinical use and extend the marvels of the science across all barriers.
Quoting Confucius: 'Learning without thought is labor lost; thought without learning is
perilous'.
I look forward to meeting you in December!

Kindest,
Gautam N Allahbadia
President, MOGS
ORGANIZING SECRETARIES' MESSAGE

“The illiterate of the 21st century are not those who cannot read & write, but those who
are unwilling to unlearn and relearn.” —Alvin Tofler
Dear Friends,
The birth of the baby fulfills the quest for motherhood, and establishes the couples place
in society. Infertile couples need proper guidance and counseling as regards the cause
MANDAKINI PARIHAR
ORG. SECRETARY
of infertility and its appropriate management. With this in mind, we have planned a
focused International Congress on “The Ovary Unraveled “organized jointly by Indian
Society for Assisted Reproduction and Mumbai Obstetrics and Gynecological Society.
The congress aims at updating the delegates with the academic advancements in
clinical practice and research focused on the ovary. Infertility management has been

rg
undergoing a vast change over the last couple of decades. Modalities of treatment,
which were considered only to be remotely available, are now a part of infertility

.o
management on a routine basis. Anovulation and Ovarian Pathology is responsible for
SHREYAS PADGAONKAR

09
ORG. SECRETARY 50% of female factor infertility.
With the improvements in biotechnology, several hurdles in reproductive medicines have
20
been overcome. Renowned international workers who have contributed to advances in
this superspeciality will be participating in the conference and sharing their own
experiences. The pre-congress workshops have been planned with interactive
ry

discussion and stress on practical pointers for the benefit of all delegates. There are 6
va

pre-congress workshops and 4 post congress workshops.

ASHWINI B. GANDHI
ORG. SECRETARY
During the congress, well planned sessions will enable the delegates to interact with
.o

experts and fellow delegates in areas of special interest. Sessions have been devoted to
stem cell therapy, poloscopy, imaging technology, genomics and metabolomics will be
w

made with an aim to update current knowledge, rationalize concepts and strengthen
w

judgement. Balanced views on the explosive Third Party Reproduction, with a special
interest in oocyte donation, that has come as a messiah to the childless, will be aired in
w

the light of ethical and legal considerations so that the promising benefits of this
technology can be channelized to the right use. These sessions will provide impetus to
practitioners to refine their protocols and be able to offer alternative therapies to obtain
optimal results.
With scientific and cultural extravaganza planned out for you, the Renaissance
Convention Centre at Powai provides all modern amenities to ensure a successful
conference. We are sure that after this congress, the deliberations, discussions and
interaction with fellow delegates would enrich you. We have endeavored to look into all
aspects of the scientific and social comforts. However, if there are any inadvertent
lapses, we apologise for the same. We welcome all delegates to the city of Mumbai and
hope that they will carry back fond memories of this vibrant city.

Repeated IVF Failures
Organized by ISAR- Special Interest Group on Reproductive Endocrinology
Moderators : Pratap Kumar, Narendra Malhotra & Manish Banker
International Faculty : Jan Gerris, Paul Devroy, Denny Sakkas
Embryo implantation failure after transfer constitutes a limiting factor in ART success. The interaction between a
high quality embryo and a receptive endometrium, after an atraumatic embryo transfer is of paramount
importance, yet many of these steps are still poorly understood. This workshop will aim to address issues
involved in patients with recurrent failures and best management for them.

Workshop Conveners: Mandakini Parihar, Nalini Mahajan, Sunita Tandulwardkar
Foreign Faculty: Bruno Lunenfeld, Roy Homburg, Marco Filicori, Paul Devroey
Ovarian stimulation usually is a key step in Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ART). During the past two decades
the availability of new hormonal analogues and development of alternative protocols has spurred development of new
ovarian stimulation regimens that must be individualized to patient characteristics. Infertility specialists and
gynecologists often are at a loss as to how to optimize hormonal stimulation of the ovaries.
Learning Objectives

In-Vitro Maturation (IVM)

Workshop Conveners: Gautam Allhabadia, Sujata Kar, Virendra Shah
International Faculty: S. L.Tan, Jose Remohi

The inconvenience, complexity, cost and risks associated with ovarian stimulation with gonadotropins for in
vitro fertilization (IVF) make many patients reluctant to rely on this therapy.
Thus, patients and their physicians now increasingly employ unstimulated, i.e., “natural,” ovarian cycles as a
means of preparing oocytes for IVF. The emerging technique of in vitro maturation (IVM) might make natural

rg
cycle IVF more practical.

.o
The faculty will compare clinical outcomes and discuss the practical aspects application of IVM to IVF in
polycystic ovary syndrome and fertility preservation along with the published clinical data.
Learning Objectives
09
20
1. Compare the advantages and disadvantages of the various protocols for ovarian stimulation for IVM
2. Describe the scientific and clinical rationale for natural cycles and minimally stimulated cycles and their
ry

application to IVF.

Cryobiology & Vitrification Workshop

Organized by ISAR- Special Interest Group Embryology
Workshop Conveners: Hrishikesh Pai, Rama Raju, Rajat Ray
International Faculty : Martina Ribic Pucelj
The need for an interest in fertility-preservation procedures is growing. Ovarian cryopreservation and
Vitrification techniques are gaining a lot of acceptance. There is evidence today that Vitrification gives similar
results as that of slow-freezing of embryos. This workshop is designed to discuss and compare the advantages

rg
and disadvantages of Vitrification and slow freezing. There is a need for an interactive discussion on the

.o
whereabouts of the technology, and the challenges it faces, both technically and ethically. The faculty will cover
the practical and relevant points to help and make Vitrification easy and simple for the delegates.
Learning Objectives:
09
20
1. Review the indications and risks of current ovarian cryopreservation
2. Understand the nuances of slow freezing and vitrification

Workshop Convener: Rupin Shah
Faculty: Denny Sakkas, Sadhana Desai, Vijay Kulkarni
The male partner plays a critical role in infertility, being a possible contributor to the cause of infertility, the
potential source of sperm, and a future father. Yet male partners often receive only passing attention from
reproductive healthy practitioners.
The focus of this workshop is to help infertility specialists and gynecologsits to increase their knowledge of male
