Course overview:

This course has now been completely redesigned with a new concept of teaching endoscopic sinus surgery together with a new international faculty. 

It includes 6 modules of problem-based dissections. Each module consists of lectures on pathophysiology, indications for surgery and surgical approach, followed by a demonstration dissection and hands on Cadaver workshop. 

Advanced areas of surgical management will be covered.  

Live surgery is planned on Friday morning.

This educational activity has been approved in the RACS CPD Program.
