OVERVIEW

State-of-the Art Endoscopic Skull Base Surgery : A Hands-On Course is organized by Academic Event Management and would be held during Oct 20 - 22, 2017 at Biomedical Research Tower, Columbus, Ohio, United States Of America.

The target audience for this medical event for Neurosurgeons, otolaryngologists-head and neck surgeons and other skull base surgeons who are interested in learning endoscopic endonasal surgery of the skull base, pituitary fossa, orbit and craniocervical junction. This CME Conference has been approved with a maximum of 31 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits.

Course Description :
• Pre-course video-lectures addressing the basic principles of endoscopic skull base surgery, anatomy of the sinonasal tract and skull base, and basic surgical technique and instrumentation. These will be provided to registered participants one month prior to the course, as the program will start at a level that presumes familiarity with these principles.
• Anatomical prosections (videos will be provided one month prior to the course).
• Laminated dissection manual (a digital version will be provided one month prior to the course)
• Sequence of complementary didactic lectures, round tables and panel discussions (open format with audience participation), 3-D anatomical reviews and hands-on cadaveric dissection.
•v Live surgery will be transmitted directly to the auditorium where the participants may interact with the surgeons and other members of the faculty.

Conference Objectives are :
• Describe the anatomic relationships of the sinonasal tract, orbit and ventral skull base from the endoscopic perspective
• Discuss the indications and limitations of endoscopic endonasal surgery of the skull base, pituitary fossa, orbit and craniocervical junction
• Identify how to avoid and treat complications of endoscopic endonasal surgery of the skull base, pituitary fossa, orbit and craniocervical junction
• Describe the anatomic relationships and surgical exposure afforded by the transpterygoid approach.
• Describe the relative anatomical exposures of the endonasal versus the open traditional approaches.
• Identify how to avoid and treat complications of endoscopic skull base surgery.
