This cadaver workshop will equip delegates with a good
working knowledge of the surgical anatomy of the neck and
will in particular include practice of parotid surgery, thyroid and parathyroid surgery, laryngectomy and different types of neck dissection. Training will be delivered face to face at Hull York Medical Schools state-of-the-art anatomy facilities at the University of Hull campus. Under the direction and supervision of expert tutors surgical trainees will become better equipped to per- form surgical interventions to a high standard. At Hull York Medical School a special lite embalming tech- nique is used resulting in cadaveric tissues which are much more like real life. The course provides a big safety plus for surgeons and patients and a great advantage for our trainees, allowing a more true-to-life practice before perform- ing procedures on a live patient. Key Benefits Cadaveric dissection practice with a delegate to faculty ratio of as little as 2:1 Opportunity for hands-on practice of surgical technique in a lifelike but safe environment Combination of anatomy revision and practising surgical inter ventions of the head and neck Use of a special lite embalming technique which means cadav eric tissues are much more lifelike in colour, tone and exibility Course Convenors Mr James England Head & Neck and Thyroid Surgeon, Castle Hill Hospital Mr Jemy Jose ENT and Head & Neck Surgeon, Castle Hill Hospital Professor Nick Stafford ENT and Head & Neck Surgeon, Castle Hill Hospital Mr Paolo Matteucci Head and Neck Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeon, Castle Hill Hospital Mr Stephen Crank Maxiofacial and Head & Neck Surgeon, Castle Hill Hospital Head and neck surgical anatomy: hands-on cadaver workshop TEACHING RESEARCH PRACTICE 19th March 2015 Loxley Building, Hull York Medical School, University of Hull Who can enrol for this programme?
