Over the last three decades, laparoscopic procedures have become standard
procedures in most surgical diseases. Residents of different surgical
specialties have to be familiar with both open and laparoscopic approaches
and they might have early contact with minimally invasive techniques.
For these reasons, we prepared this hands-on course specially design for
residents. Having in mind a low-cost laparoscopic course, basic minimally
invasive techniques will be taught both in theoretical and in practical sessions.
Participants will get familiar with laparoscopic equipment and instruments
and they will have the opportunity to practice laparoscopic dissection,
coagulation, ligation and suture techniques in ex vivo tissues.

Besides the intensive work to become an otological surgeon, practical courses
are an important tool for training different surgical procedures of otology
and neurotology.
In certain cases it is not possible to give the patients the desired hearing
results, but with the different implants we can achieve a good quality of
life.Among the implants , some are inert and can replace parts of the ear,
but others are active (bionic) and designed to compensate different kinds of
hearing loss.
This course is specifically addressed to senior ENT residents and
Otolaryngologists who are interested on increasing their skills and knowledge
about the new models of auditory implants and surgical techniques.

Radical prostatectomy is the gold standard treatment for localized prostate
cancer, but laparoscopic radical prostatectomy is a highly complex procedure,
with an obvious learning curve.
The purpose of this course is therefore to provide advanced training in
Laparoscopic Extraperitoneal Prostatectomy in order to give the surgeon
intraoperative practice with this type of procedure and to enable the
application of acquired knowledge in their clinical routine.

Three-dimensional (3-D) video imaging technology has been developed to allow
the laparoscopic surgeon more precision and efficiency in advanced laparoscopic
cases. Moreover novel surgical techniques have been conceptualized and developed
with the aim of further minimizing the invasiveness of laparoscopic surgery. Thus,
it seems timely to train those who are already involved in the field of urologic
laparoscopy to get used to these recent advances and to potentially incorporate
them in their surgical skills and knowledge. Moreover, the outcomes, pitfalls and
open issues of each of these techniques need to be scrutinized and carefully
reviewed. With these ideas in mind, the 2014 minimally invasive urological surgical
week, now at its 5rd edition, will be a two days event including live surgery sessions,
state of the art lectures, interactive discussions and 3D hands-on training. The 3D
Masterclass will tentatively cover all the spectrum of advanced surgical techniques
in urology.

ESD and EMR techniques are increasingly practiced in Europe with a growing
need for intensive individual training. We have developed a training program
to master endoscopic mucosal resections and submucosal dissections in
a realistic setting using a live porcine model. The management of potential
complications such as bleeding and perforation will be taught under guidance
of renowned experts in the field. We hope that this unique workshop will
serve the need for advanced training in this developing area of interventional
endoscopy and look forward to welcoming you!

Arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgery that has developed at a great
rhythm in the last decade and today it is technically possible to do an
arthroscopic procedure of almost every joint in the human body. Additionally, it is
nowadays the gold standard treatment for some major orthopedics pathologies.
In order of this trend, knee arthroscopy has also been highly developed in recent
years and nowadays, orthopedic knee surgeons should master basic principles
of arthroscopic surgery. With a very high technical component, this Hands-on
course is a great opportunity for orthopedic residents training on realistic and
well-designed arthroscopic models.

Nowadays Snoring and OSAS are considerated a public health problem, not
only because of their high frequency, morbidity and mortality but also due to
the social and familiar impact on patient’s life.
The main etiology is the obstruction of the upper airway traject ,
of different levels (nose, nasopharynx, orofarynx and base tongue)
In 70’s the introduction of mechanic devices such as CPAP, other measures
and sugery, has contribuided for a better approach. In this cadaver course we
pretend to do a revision on this subject.
In this sequence, this course from the University of Minho pretends, stepby-step, perform on cadaver the basic and most recent techniques for the
different etiologies of snoring and OSAS.

Considered nowadays as gold standart for most of the rhinology procedures,
the systematic technique of the nasal endoscopic exploration of the lateral
wall was developed by Messerklinger in 1970. In the 80es, the nasossinusal
endoscopic surgery became popular with Stammberger’s works in Austria
and Kennedy’s in the USA. Its globalization in Otorhinolaringology was
exponential because it allowed a better visualization on the intranasal
structures, making this way possible a high surgical precision and a better
hemorrhagic control. Moreover, the development of endoscopic surgical
techniques allows opens way to complex surgeries, allowing, thus, the
treatment of nasal tumors, CSF fistulas and intracranial tumors.
In this sequence, this course from University of Minho, proposes a advanced
hands-on course in S. P. N. dissection and endoscopy surgery of the skull
base, in order to provide its participants practical, an extensive hand-on
training to learn - doing in cadaver.

To become a sucessfull surgeon on Rhinoseptoplasty, it’s very important to
know the anatomy of the nose and the different technique one can use to
perform this purpose. So it’s our mission to make a revision of the anatomy
and the different technique to perform this surgery in lectures.
In cadaver dissection we are going to do step-by-step dissection.
We focus on basics and advanced technique, such as external, closed and
delivery aproaches. We will also demonstrate different nasal dissections, and
how to resolve different rhinoplasty problems. It’s also important to enhance
surgical skills. In this sequence, this course from University of Minho, is a very
important opportunity for both the young and expert surgeons on this area. To
earn how to perform a step-by-step rhinoseptoplasty in cadaveric dissection.

Inspired by the well-documented benefits of minimally invasive
surgery (MIS) in adults and children, the XXI century started
launching the advantages of MIS to newborns. Although new
instruments and equipment are promoting these achievements,
there is still a long journey in training before neonatal endoscopic
surgery become safe and widespread. In this sequence, the 2013
MIS program from University of Minho proposes an advanced
hands-on course in Fetal and Neonatal Endoscopic Surgery in
order to provide its participants a theoretical update in the most
recent developments in fetal and neonatal endoscopic surgery and,
simultaneously, an extensive hands-on training to learn-doing in

Throughout human history, organ or limbs transplants were largely
represented in the old textbooks but these procedures with vascular
anastomosis of small vessels were only successful after the work of Jacobson
and Suarez, in 1960, which used the microscope to help the suture act. After
that, in 1965, KOMATSU performed the first successful replantation of a
thumb. This relatively new technique requires a great effort, perseverance
and a long learning curve. The practice allows the young surgeon to improve
the surgical technique and at the same time acquire a correct handling of
the tissues. The failure in experimental conditions is unpleasant but when
happens in clinical practice its consequences are dramatic. So it is only the
intensive training in animal model that ensures the confidence and technical
skill critical to success.

The basis to laparoscopic exploration of the common bile duct is the
maintenance of the biliary environment. Scientific evidence has demonstrated
that these procedures have better clinical short- and long-term results. Costeffectiveness studies also confer it undeniable superiority relative to treatment
of biliary lithiasis by way of cholecystectomy and ERCP. Nevertheless, the
complexity of the techniques and the pressure by gastroenterologists has
limited its widespread implementation. This course aims to systematize the
technique based on decision protocols. The development of surgical skills
is maintained from simple cholecystectomy towards treatment of common
bile duct stones without risks for the patients. Practical exercises will be
undertaken on inanimate, organic and animal models. Training includes
choledocoscopy, cholangiography, suture and biliary anastomosis.

Prevalence of morbid obesity is rising and leads to an increased risk of comorbidities including cardiovascular diseases, diabetes and some cancers.
Bariatric surgery is more effective in achieving weight loss than non-surgical
management and weight loss is more likely to be maintained in the longer
term. Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) is the gold standard approach
of bariatric surgery. This course aims to review indications, discuss the
management of complications and highlight technical aspects of primary and
revisional bariatric surgery. The program will include theoretical presentations,
discussion of clinical cases, videos, and at least 50% of the time is designated
for hands-on practice in porcine and ex-vivo models. Trainees will be
introduced to laparoscopic suturing techniques and to the main bariatric
procedures, such as gastric bypass, Sleeve gastrectomy, mini-gastric bypass
and duodenal switch.

Over the last three decades, laparoscopic procedures have become standard
procedures in most surgical diseases. Residents of different surgical
specialties have to be familiar with both open and laparoscopic approaches
and they might have early contact with minimally invasive techniques.
For these reasons, we prepared this hands-on course specially design for
residents. Having in mind a low-cost laparoscopic course, basic minimally
invasive techniques will be taught both in theoretical and in practical sessions.
Participants will get familiar with laparoscopic equipment and instruments
and they will have the opportunity to practice laparoscopic dissection,
coagulation, ligation and suture techniques in ex vivo tissues.

Massive rotator cuff tears (MRCT) have not a consensual definition but usually
are chronic lesions, associated with bad prognostic factors that adversely
affect the clinical symptoms and the treatment. When surgery is advised,
it is a difficult problem to solve because the poor biologic and mechanical
properties associated harms the capacity to heal of the musculotendinous
unit. Treatment should be individualized and currently there is a wide range of
clinical therapeutic options.
We propose a theoretical Symposium and a hands-on cadaveric course about
this problematic. The practical course will allow to develop technical skills in the
solutions most used to treat this broad-spectrum pathology like arthroscopy
(e.g. long biceps head tenotomy, partial/complete repair), arthroplasty (e.g.
reversed prosthesis) and tendon transfers. The surgical training will be
complemented by the Symposium that will allow to acquire basic science
information about muscle and tendon biopathology, healing and evidencebased Lectures about the clinical solutions currently available in MRCT.

Foot and ankle pathology represents a highly prevalent group of pathology,
particularly in sports Medicine. Ankle sprain is even the most frequent injury
during sports activity. This way it represents a highly prevalent problem with
significant social-economic impact. This population is frequently associated
to a high-demand profile and has particular expectations that must be
considered. Arthroscopic approach enables to lower the surgical aggression
while dealing with several concomitant lesions at the same time (e.g. ankle
instability, osteochondral defects; anterior or posterior impingement).
Arthroscopy has recently gained further indications around the ankle such
as arthroscopic-assisted fracture repair. However, the principal of minimally
invasive surgery is mandatory even when arthroscopy is neither indicated
nor possible.
This course aims to provide practical insights and guidelines concerning
the most frequent and relevant Foot and Ankle injuries in Sports Medicine.
A current concepts perspective is provided concerning the most updated
information available coming from top experts in the field.
