BAU Advanced Microsurgery Course

This three-day advanced microsurgery course, including two days of in-vivo training in rat models, is designed for beginner microsurgeons such as residents or young specialists in all areas of surgery requiring microsurgery who have mastered the basic microsurgical skills.

​

The course is organized in the Prof. Rhoton Laboratory at Bahçeşehir University Istanbul/Türkiye. This lab is a state-of-the-art facility equipped with the latest microsurgical tools and technologies, replicating real-world surgical environments.

The course has a well structured program starting from exercises on silicone materials and gradually increasing the technical difficulty to perform end-to-end, end-to-side, and side-to-side anastomoses on in-vitro models using chicken arteries and veins on the first day. From the second day on we start performing exercises on in-vivo rat models.

Short presentations preceding the hands-on training will support the practical work. We have chosen to limit the number of participants to 15 to ensure individualized instruction and teaching with emphasis on manual skills.
