We are delighted to welcome you to the 9th Masterclass – Endoscopic Skull Base Dissection Course. Once more we have the pleasure of having with us an outstanding international faculty to teach, guide and amaze us.
Lectures will cover both the basic principles, anatomy  as well as the latest developments of endoscopic skull base surgery.
More than 10 hours of fresh-frozen cadaveric dissections provide an excellent opportunity for participants to get hands-on experience and update their knowledge of endoscopic skull base anatomy and approaches.
Each participant station will be equipped with high quality endoscopes, tools, neuronavigation, high speeds drills and suction systems to simulate operation room settings.
