About this Event
This 3-day course experience will provide an extensive immersion in advanced endonasal and transcranial keyhole surgical techniques using didactic and anatomical lectures, cadaveric dissections, and live surgery on Day 1.
The course faculty are highly experienced and recognized world-experts in minimally invasive endoscopic and keyhole surgery.
The course emphasis will be on:
- Patient and approach selection
- Surgical judgment
- Anatomical awareness
- Technical nuances
- Complication avoidance
- Maintaining quality of life
- Optimizing clinical outcomes
Specific approaches discussed and performed in the lab will include:
- Endoscopic endonasal route including extended approach variations
- Supraorbital eyebrow craniotomy
- Mini-pterional craniotomy
- Gravity-assisted transfalcine and transtentorial endoscopic approaches
- Retromastoid route
A team approach involving neurosurgery, otolaryngology and neuro-ophthalmology will be stressed as well as collaboration with neuro-oncology, endocrinology and radiation oncology.
The course will have sessions on keyhole surgery for neurosurgeons, and endonasal approaches for ENTs/ophthalmologists.
Audience
Neurosurgeons, otolaryngologists/ENT/rhinologists, plastic surgeons, and neuroophthalmologists/ ophthalmologists with some prior experience in endoscopic and keyhole surgery who want to expand their repertoire and capabilities.
Pricing
$1,000 individual
