At the meeting it was decided to change the name of the society to reflect the changes that have occurred in recent years. AAVIS is now a true multidisciplinary and international society. The new name will be the International Society for Pelviperineology. There will soon be a new website to reflect this change.

Plans are now underway for the next International Pelviperineology Conference which will be held in Sydney during the second half of 2011. Further information will be available as soon as the program and venue are finalized. The Annual General Meeting of the International Society for Pelviperieology (formerly AAVIS) was held in Vienna and new Office Bearers were elected for 2011 as follows President: Professor Giuseppe Dodi, Colorectal Surgeon, Padova, Italy Vice President: Dr Bruce Farnsworth, Gynaecologist, Sydney, Australia Treasurer: Dr Jeff Tarr, Gynaecologist, Buderim, Australia Secretary: Dr Vincent Tse, Urologist, Sydney, Australia.

The new Committee looks forward to working with you over the next 12 months.
