The First regional Per OraLendoscopic Myotomy for treatment of achalasia conference
welcome note
Dear Colleagues and Friends,
On Behalf of the Gastroenterology team at the Royal
Hospital in Oman, I wish you a warm welcome to
the first live P.O.E.M. endoscopy conference in
the Gulf region. A special welcome to our visiting
doctors, Professor Nageshwar Reddy, Chairman
of the Asian institute of Gastroenterology and his
team, and Dr. Amol Bapaye. The role of endoscopy
in gastroenterology is quickly evolving in both,
diagnostic and therapeutic applications. The concept
of natural orifice translumenal endoscopic surgery
has inspired gastroenterologists and endoscopic
surgeons to create a less invasive method for treating
various gastrointestinal diseases, including achalasia.
The conventional treatments for achalasia include balloon dilation, laparoscopic myotomy,
and Botox injection. Per Oral Endoscopic Myotomy (P.O.E.M.) is a less invasive endoscopic
approach to Heller myotomy, and the short-term data demonstrate that it offers excellent
outcomes that appear to rival those of the laparoscopic Heller myotomy.
The aim of this live endoscopy conference is to discuss Achalasia and other motility disorders,
and demonstrate the technique of P.O.E.M. for these disorders. In addition, the application of
RFA, spy glass and their role in cholangiocarcinoma will be touched briefly in this session. The
quality of this meeting will also depend on you, since your interaction with the moderators and
the experts will be a key point for scientific discussions.
Once again I would like to thank you for your participation, and I hope you enjoy the live
endoscopy.
Yours Truly,
Dr. Hisham Al Dhahab
MB, MRCP(UK), FRCP(Canada)
Senior Consultant Gastroenterologist
Chief of Endoscopy Unit, Royal Hospital, Oman

VISION
Developing a platform to raise awareness and improving the standards for the
treatment of gastroenterological disorders is a necessity, especially due to the
increasing prevalence of these disorders in this region. The primary causes for
these diseases may be attributed to the affluent and the rushed lifestyle, which are
becoming more common in today’s world.
MISSION
OGS (Oman Gastrointestinal Society), the first of its kind in this region, is a
non-profit organisation that aims to gather doctors, nurses, specialists, medical
professors and students. These specialists from varying backgrounds will be
educated on the most accurate and up-to-date scientific information of digestive
health and the etiology, symptomatology and treatment of gastroenterological
disorders.

The First regional Per OraLendoscopic Myotomy for treatment of achalasia conference
conference objectives
Practice of GI endoscpy has come a long way
since its inception more than 4 decades ago.
We, the practitioners of this art are fortunate to be
part of a revolution of innovation in endoscopic
techniques and procedures that have the potential to
alter the course of medicine as it is practiced.
P.O.E.M., or Per Oral Endoscopic Myotomy is an
elegant technique that has seized our collective
consciousness in the past few years. It is a procedure
to treat achalasia of the cardia endoscopically while
achieving results that are comparable or possibly
even superior to surgery. This is exciting for all of us.
The idea of this meeting/workshop is to introduce this
therapeutic procedure to the GI endoscopy society in
Oman as well as to raise awareness among our colleagues about this proedure. It is also our
aim to gradually start performing this procedure locally.
It is easy to view this significant advance as a “niche” therapy because achalasia itself
remains a rare entity. The idea of this meeting is also to introduce the concept of “3rd space
endoscopy”. Developing expertise in P.O.E.M. is rapidly opening up our horizons to the
possibility of performing diagnostic and therapeutic procedures within the wall of the GI tract.
We hope we are not only able to introduce, adopt and accept this major advance into our
endoscopic practice, but also to open up vistas for future developments.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Developing a platform to raise awareness and improving the standards for the treatment of gastroenterological disorders
is a necessity, especially due to the increasing prevalence of these disorders in this region. The primary causes for
these diseases may be attributed to the affluent and the rushed lifestyle, which are becoming more common in today’s
world. OGS (Oman Gastrointestinal Society), the first of its kind in this region, is a non-profit organisation that visions
to gather doctors, nurses, specialists, medical professors and students. These specialists from varying backgrounds
will be educated on the most accurate and up-to-date scientific information of digestive health and the etiology,
symptomatology and treatment of gastroenterological disorders. With the participation of varying kinds of specialists,
brainstorming on key areas in this field will prompt a broader perspective and approach to these diseases. Hence, this
initiative will encourage the best possible treatments for patients, who undergo immense pain and psychological stress
associated with these diseases. OGS pledges to embark on this journey, by starting off from a pioneering conference
called the “LIVE-P.O.E.M”. PERI ORAL ENDOSCOPIC MYOTOMY
Recently, the advent of a breakthrough medical procedure called the Peri Oral Endoscopic Myotomy has sparked a lot
of attention, which it deserves. This procedure, a clear winner without a debate over the alternative treatment that is
surgery, eradicates all the possible risks of serious bleeding, infection and internal scarring, associated with incisions
to the outer gastrointestinal tract, in surgery. Prolonged hospitalization and life threatening complications, as a result,
are put aside with the use of P.O.E.M. This procedure benefits both the doctors with their efficiency and the patients in
terms of the relief- a definite win-win situation.
To connect the dots in this article now, LIVE-P.O.E.M will feature not only informative sessions on this particular
breakthrough procedure, but it is also going to showcase a live telecast of this procedure in the very esteemed Royal
Hospital Auditorium at 8.30 am on the 30th of October 2014 a concept unheard of especially in this region. To conduct
this procedure, two renowned, leading specialists, Dr. Nageshwar Reddy and Dr. Amol Bapaye are being flown in from
India. This conference undoubtedly offers a perfect blend between the theoretical and practical knowledge, which
serves as a brilliant strategy to cater to the perfect stimulus for learning.
With this pioneering event, people will witness the start to a remarkable journey in the form of a contribution to them
and the society, which undoubtedly will go down in the books of history of Oman in the future. Without a doubt, the
latest technology this event seems to promote will be rapidly adopted by the medical fraternity in Oman. Therefore, it
doesn’t come as a surprise that the attendance of the varying specialists in this event is highly recommended.
