November 16&17
UMCG, The Netherlands
On November 16 and 17, 2007 the Department of Plastic Surgery of the University Medical Centre Groningen will once again organise its dissection course in collaboration with the Department of Anatomy.
Lectures and practice
This course is especially designed for plastic surgeons and their residents and focuses on flaps and their relevant anatomy in the head and neck and the trunk. Well-known workhorse flaps and the latest generation of perforator flaps will be covered. Flap presentations will be grouped according to their common vascular root. This course aims to equip you with theoretical background knowledge and practical skills.
Following introductory anatomy lectures, the international faculty will discuss the surgical anatomy of each flap and perform live dissections on fresh frozen cadavers. Thereafter you can perform the dissections yourself, supervised by the faculty. The number of participants is limited to 30.
At the end of this course...
you will understand the underlying anatomy of the discussed flaps, you will be able to dissect them and apply the acquired skills in clinical practise.
