Facial Plastic Surgery Flap Reconstruction Dissection

This one-day course provides a competency based approach to facial skin cancer tumour resection and reconstruction with grafts and local skin flaps, using thiel embalmed cadaveric specimens.

A series of structured exercises has been devised so that Trainees and Consultants in plastic, ENT and maxillofacial surgery can complete a variety of facial soft tissue surgery simulations based on the more common skin flap procedures encountered. Delegates will be working in pairs using thiel embalmed cadaveric specimens with personal tuition from experienced consultants.

This course covers:

• Random Flaps I: Advancement and Transposition Flaps
• Random Flaps II: Rhomboid Flap, Bilobed Flap, Rotation Flap
• V-Y Flaps
• Total Nasal Reconstruction and the Paramedian Forehead Flap

Includes pre-course learning materials and an attendance certificate.
