Hands-on introductory course to head and neck surgery
Hands-on introductory course to head and neck surgery
From June 19th till June 21th 2025 the 12th hands-on introductory course to Head & Neck Surgery will be held in the UMC Utrecht Cancer Center.
Originally this course was organized for ENT residents in The Netherlands and Belgium but due to its popularity, the course evolved over the years with participants from all over Europe and beyond. The course language is English. The combination of lectures by experienced faculty members, instructional videos, interesting discussions and hands-on cadaver dissection provide the opportunity to enrich your knowledge and practice your surgical skills.
The course is designed for senior residents, fellows and young staff members in Ear-Nose-Throat Surgery or Maxillo-Facial Surgery, with topics on work-up, multidisciplinary management and follow-up of head and neck cancer patients. The cadaver dissections will focus on the neck, larynx and parotid gland with introductions by an experienced head and neck anatomist. The participants will be guided step-wise in doing a neck dissection, total laryngectomy and parotidectomy using a manual and guidance of the faculty. Surgical instruments are provided for.
Hoping to see you next June!
