Led by renowned specialist Philip Lhermette, this short course provides an in-depth exploration of operative rigid endoscopy, focusing on laparoscopy, thoracoscopy, and the cutting-edge field of laser endosurgery.
The programme is designed to guide practitioners from foundational principles to confident surgical application through a combination of theoretical instruction and intensive hands-on training in both dry-lab and wet-lab environments. Delegates will master essential laparoscopic techniques - ranging from organ biopsies and cryptorchidectomy to the core procedures of laparoscopic ovariectomy and ovariohysterectomy - while gaining a critical understanding of insufflation, anaesthesia, and the financial viability of these services in private practice.
The course further expands into the thoracic cavity, comparing surgical approaches for procedures such as pericardectomy and lung biopsies, and concludes with a specialised module on diode laser physics and its practical application in the precise management of tumours and ectopic ureters.
