2nd Singapore Facial Fracture and Soft Tissue Reconstruction Fresh Frozen Cadaveric Dissection Course

The ENT Department at Khoo Teck Puat Hospital will be organizing the 2nd Singapore Facial Fracture and Soft Tissue Reconstruction Fresh Frozen Cadaveric Dissection Course from 6 to 9 December 2015.

This intensive course builds on the very successful and well-received course that we conducted last year. It offers an excellent hands-on opportunity for Otolaryngology, Ophthalmology, Plastic Surgery and Maxillofacial Surgery Residents and Fellows to expand their knowledge and surgical skills in the management of facial fractures and soft tissue injuries and defects

The organizing committee has arranged an outstanding faculty from USA, Europe and Asia to share their extensive knowledge, skill and experience during the course. The teachers of honour for the course include internationally renowned Facial Plastic Surgeon Prof Shan R. Baker (USA), and Maxillo-facial Surgeon Prof Edward Ellis (USA). The participants will also benefit from the wealth of experience offered by our outstanding multidisciplinary national faculty.

The first day of course consists of didactic lectures covering the common problems encountered in facial reconstruction. The next three days will be dedicated to surgical dissection to impart exhaustive practical training in all aspects of facial reconstruction. The laboratory portion of the course will be limited to 20 Dissectors to allow for close and personal contact between the faculty and the participants.
