Spinal Surgery Essentials Course
This is for experienced surgeons wanting to develop their spinal surgery or learn more about what is involved in performing these procedures.
The course covers the assessment and decision making in of patients with clinical signs related to Intervertebral Disc Disease. Extensive hands-on practical sessions allow you to practise the standard hemilaminectomy, modified hemilaminectomy and ventral slot techniques under guidance from our expert and approachable tutors.
Advanced Spinal Surgery Course
This is also a 2 day small group practical course.Although a hemilaminectomy and ventral slot are the main surgery types effective for disc disease, sometimes a dorsal approach may be required, and chronic discs may require removal of part of the body of the vertebra. Further surgical challenges come when the presenting conditions require the use of spinal implants which need to be placed in precise positions to be successful and to avoid serious injury to the patient. This course will also cover the surgical management of Atlantoaxial Subluxation, Wobbler Syndrome and Lumbosacral Disease.
