The course will be taught in two stages: The first stage is distance learning, with online classes focused on the equipment and step-by-step techniques for the main surgical procedures. The second stage is in-person. During this stage, students will consolidate their theoretical knowledge and perform practical activities of increasing complexity as part of a specially designed hands-on training program using inanimate models and anatomical specimens. In addition, they will have the opportunity to observe and discuss live surgeries.
The training is both theoretical and practical, and we will cover the main topics in laparoscopy, including a discussion of surgical techniques.
All training will cover the following topics:
